Constantin from NoobFeed takes a look at Fran Bow, a creepy point and click adventure game by Killmonday.
With its unique psychological story and interesting game mechanics, Fran Bow shows a lot of potential.
VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "Fran Bow is nothing else if not intriguing. The sheer amount of vile & traumatic sights this young girl is put through could be seen as cheap shock value, but Killmonday Games' artistic sincerity suggest those accusations to have little merit. At the same time, this drug-fuelled trip through Wonderland is hampered by rough qualities ranging from a lackluster ambiguous resolution to obnoxious point-n-click trappings dating to the Triassic period. It's a frustrating mixture of impressive and lackluster qualities that kept me invested, even if never thoroughly satisfied. A prescription I can't recommend to everyone."
Hot take: I actually enjoyed the fantasy level, with exception to a couple of lackluster puzzles. I think it was a nice break from the Reality/Horror Wonderland dynamic. Also gave me Night of the Rabbit vibes.
Humble Bundle is running a DRM-Freedom Sale. Numerous games are available at low prices and can be downloaded straight from the Humble Bundle site.
Killmonday Games, the developers behind Fran Bow, are working on a new game called Different Galaxy.
So excited for this. I absolutely loved Fran Bow. One of the greatest point and click adventure games of all time and it was quite a meaty game being developed by only two people. Can't wait to see some footage of this game.
For some reason I think of Mr. Midnight with this, though it looks more like a mystery than horror. Excited to play it! :)
Looks impressive and creepy too.
