Oxenfree 2: Lost Signals has been on my radar for a while now. I’ve played most of the Tribeca Games 2022 selection over the past few days, and Oxenfree (along with Cuphead, which is DLC to a game I’ve already beaten) was the game I went in knowing the most about. It’s a sequel, sure, but it’s more of a spiritual/thematic sequel than a direct continuation. I knew Oxenfree 2 well enough because a couple of months back I had a hands-off preview of the sequel that went through the same section I was able to go hands-on with here. At the time, I was intrigued but left wanting. It was missing something, even if I couldn’t quite put my finger on it. At Tribeca, Oxenfree 2 found what it was searching for.
