"Fran Bow, the point-and-click psychological horror game, is unlike most games available today. Combining a strong narrative, a unique art style, and a riveting plot, I can honestly say that my experience with Fran Bow was one of the most memorable this year and Steam agrees with me — with over 1,000 Overwhelmingly Positive reviews. Following the imaginative story of Fran, an eleven year old girl suffering from mental illness in the 1930s, you are introduced to bliss, terror, and a strong, pure emotional narrative."
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."
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! :)
Yo this game seems messed up lol
Wow, just wow.
Instant buy if it ever comes to PS4
A point-and-click psychological horror game sounds like a game I need to play lol
