‎A small adventure, which is far from being a blockbuster, but still manages to catch for its original dynamics and its worked atmosphere. If you like indie horror, don't let it go.‎

Aside from a few strange or seemingly missing reactions from Matt, there are interesting puzzles, a creepy antagonist, and several nightmarish creatures to kill or avoid throughout the game. Being able to choose which rooms to explore helps to create different experiences over multiple runs. Not every key needs to be used before one of the endings is unlocked, so it will likely take a few playthroughs to figure out how everything in the motel is connected and what's inside all of the rooms in Oxide Room 104.

Focusing on puzzles rather than action – most noteworthy encounters are delivered via quick time events – Oxide Room 104 may be rough around the edges but it has a certain something that elevates it above many of its competitors. It has a genuinely oppressive atmosphere, its puzzles are engaging, and its looping mechanic adds a exciting twist. If you’re a survival horror fan looking for something that will occupy an evening or two, this may just fit the bill.

‎Oxide: Room 104 can tire many in the rough, the animations are basic, the combats are complicated. In addition, it can be frustrating in many ways, because of the number of deaths you will have, or how demanding you are in terms of the order you must follow to finish it. However, for fans of the horror genre, Oxide: Room 104 is an easy recommendation as long as you don't approach the game with higher-budget games in mind. What this title has to offer you is an original, fun, and well-planned experience in terms of gameplay and level and puzzle design. ‎

An acceptable attempt by indie developers based on the unique ideas of cult horror games, but it gradually falls into a stereotype and reveals its shortcomings.

WildSphere has taken a giant step forward by developing a much more demanding game and has solved it in a more than satisfactory way. The adventure is interesting and, the pleasure of knowing it completely, makes you go over and over again to go through all the rooms in search of the documents that reveal what has happened. The gameplay is correct and fulfills the function of offering you enough difficulty to make you feel defenseless in an interesting scenario. It cannot be forgotten that this is an indie game, so there are elements that could be much more polished.

Combining escape room gameplay and action, Oxide Room 104 is a bone-chilling single-player body-horror game set inside an old motel. Abducted, at the mercy of a ruthless scientist, and stalked by a horrible creature, you must try to escape using common sense, just as you would in real life.

Oxide Room 104 is an interesting and satisfying approach to the genre. If you like the genre and want to try something different that will keep you engrossed for a couple of evenings, don't hesitate.

If you're looking for a neat indie horror game to play over the weekend, Oxide Room 104 delivers a satisfying experience. It's not a long game—you can beat it in about two hours—but with four endings and multiple remixes of the hotel there's plenty of replayability. I especially enjoyed the escape room puzzles and thought the majority of them offered a good challenge.

Oxide Room 104 is a good little horror game. The atmosphere put forward is perfectly successful and the puzzles are very logical. They will be particularly appreciated by fans of escape games who will see several similarities. There are some problems with texture reflections, but they do not spoil our experience. Oxide focuses primarily on puzzles and not fights. Despite the fact that there's isn't a wide range of diversity, the design of the monsters is very well thought out. If you want a game that's not too long and like horror and puzzles, this game is for you.

Great ideas, sadly stifled by mediocre execution. Oxide Room 104 came off as a little confusing at times, lacking in direction. There are some really good ideas here, but it feels and plays like a mid-life PS3 game. It’s not a terrible game by any means and is good for a few hours. I would have appreciated this more if it played a little less cumbersome and if it looked a lot gorier than it was. Oxide Room 104 gets the Thumb Culture Bronze Award.
