Netflix wants to be a player in gaming. Can it succeed?


'Oxenfree' is not a TV show or movie — it’s a game that can be played on a mobile phone for hours. And it’s among 35 games available to download for free to subscribers through Netflix’s mobile app. The streaming giant plans to grow that number to roughly 50 by the end of the year. — Night School Studio/Netflix/TNS

It’s a scene from Oxenfree, a supernatural adventure tale that highlights themes of grief and growing up.
