Fran Bow Reviews

I played this with my cousin and we had a great time. The story is great and very entertaining. The game leaves you a bit on edge but it's such a good experience and the characters are all so thought-out. They are so easy to get attached to and it's a great experience watching the story play out, plus the interactions were always so good, especially with Fran Bow's rather "quirky" personality and her way of reacting to things lol. As someone who grew up watching Fran bow, sally face, and little misfortune videos this game exceeded my expectations for how good it'd be. It also continues to be a great game for something released in 2015. 10/10 would recommend.

I cannot recommend this game enough. The story and visuals are as stunning as they are terrifying. I am a fan of both point and click and psychological horror games, this game is the perfect meld of the two.

I had high hopes for this and honestly it's a great game, I just don't think it's for me or for someone who prefers more chaotic game play. I really wish there was narration like in Little Misfortune but sadly it doesn't. Perhaps it could be added in the future though and I would go back and try it. I found the searching for items to be long and distracting from the overall plot. Like I said above, it's great just not for me :)

I really enjoyed this game. I thought it would be nothing but horror and that is not the case, it has some lighter moments. Definitely a point and click worth playing.

Phenomenal game. Absolute beautiful and amazing story. 20/10 would recommend.

It is a really amazing game, even though it is a bit tricky at certain points and you might get stuck. However, this didn't really take away the fun in the game and how well done it is as a game, as well as good representation of a lot of topics from a child's perspective. Would definitely recommend!!

This game marked my life and made me understand myself much better, I don't know if this was the purpose of the game, after all, text interpretation varies from person to person, but the interpretations I get from this game are so good, I feel so good playing it, I bought it as soon as I could afford it, because I'm very poor, but I platinumed it with pleasure and I've played it so many times that I can't count it and I'll still replay it, because there are so many phrases that I still haven't been able to understand, so many secrets in this big and vast world of Fran Bow, I lovingly hope next games because little misfortune is also already platinum, perhaps with my evolution as a programmer I will have even a minimal chance of one day being a freelancer for killmonday it would be a very big dream.

Very very good with amazing art and nice puzzles

[h3] A Haunting Beginning, A Ridiculous End [/h3] Fran Bow kicks off in the eerie corridors of a hospital-asylum, immediately immersing you in a world that drips with unsettling dread and meticulous detail. The opening chapters are a masterclass in atmosphere. Each shadow and every whispered sound pulls you into a narrative that promises depth and terror. Much like [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/40700/Machinarium/] Machinarium [/url] its early puzzles are beautifully crafted and challenging, luring you into a point & click adventure that feels both poetic and mysterious. However, the game takes an unexpected, jarring turn. Halfway through, the quality doesn’t taper off gradually, instead, it nosedives. The story abruptly veers into convoluted territory with alternate realities and time travel gimmicks that clash with the initial horror. This shift isn’t subtle, it undermines the carefully built tension and transforms a once engrossing experience into a tangled, silly mess. Even the puzzles, which once charming, start to feel repetitive and uninspired as the narrative loses its focus. What begins as a deeply engaging, dark descent turns into a let down where the ending feels as if it was bolted on for the sake of novelty rather than narrative integrity. The opening hours are hauntingly beautiful and memorable. Yet, the later chapters betray that promise, leaving you with a final act that feels both rushed and absurd. For those willing to try for the sake of its early brilliance, Fran Bow offers a taste of atmospheric horror, just be prepared for a sluggish second half & a finale that will make you wish you invested your time playing something else.

Like the story, amazing visuals. I stopped playing though, because the level (no spoilers) with the clock was very confusing to me. I have never been more bored and looked up a walkthroug, then stopped playing. Still a positive review, because it was a great experience.
