‘Oxenfree II: Lost Signals’ Mobile Review – One of Netflix Games’ Best Yet
by .
The original Oxenfree was a brilliant experience. Whenever an indie game I love has a sequel announced, I’ve become skeptical thanks to the massive disappointment of Hotline Miami 2.

As Hamster and SNK’s tireless mission to get as much of the NEOGEO library onto mobile continues, the wheel finally lands on Thrash Rally ($3.99). It’s a top-down rally racer from the powerhouse system’s second year on the market, originally developed by the folks at ADK. Interestingly, we’ve already seen the game’s spiritual successor, Over…
