Critic Reviews for Finding Frankie
In Finding Frankie, you start out confined to a dark chamber, the only light emanating from a large TV screen welcoming you to a sadistic game show. ...
Finding Frankie is a breath of fresh air in the mascot horror genre, trading slow and creeping terror for high speed action and skill based challenges.
Finding Frankie is an interesting horror experience that aims to combine scares with parkour thrills. It pretty much succeeds in most areas but lacks the danger of their created threats for the enjoyment in the obstacle courses. Luckily, the both the story and overall aesthetic keeps you playing to see how quickly you can get through the game. For anyone looking for a new horror experience, take Finding Frankie for a spin... but remember, don't try to cheat; Frankie doesn't like that.
Finding Frankie should have been awesome. It could have been Five Nights at Freddy‘s meets Mirror’s Edge. Sadly it embodies some of the worst aspects of what mascot horror has to offer. It’s a cheaply made and obnoxious assault to the senses that is more headache inducing than scary.
Finding Frankie is a mostly fun parkour experience with interesting levels and enemies, but the clunky controls are hard to ignore in this movement-focused title, and the lack of horror won't satisfy those looking for their next scare.
Whilst Finding Frankie’s Fall Guys approach to mascot horror is a refreshing time, the overall package is a short horror breeze that will delight fans of the genre but won’t offer much to anyone else. There are some memorable moments, but they’re too far between, and you’re often brought back to a tedious gameplay loop inside a story that doesn’t offer all that much either.
Finding Frankie has plenty of good ideas and charm, but it falls flat on execution in areas. Regardless, if you're interested in a new game to speedrun, look no further.
