These are one of the best games I have ever played in a long time.
This game has a story of its own and has a lot of puzzles. The developer who made this game, including the soundtrack developer. I have played this game 3 times and I have been inspired to watch many horror movies from this game.
Swear to god,
10/10

First off, just quick and to the point, if you're a fan of point and click adventure and the screenshots appeal to you, I would heavily recommend this.

Fran Bow is a a moving story about a girl with a problem. There's lots of symbolism in this journey, some of it a bit convoluted and silly if you haven't got your mind in the fantasy mindset, but it is absolutely a pleasure to play.

It's pretty, creepy at times (most of the time, actually), and I never really felt "stuck", as can happen with less put-together point and click games.

I really recommend this playthrough. My time played reflects the time for a non-100% playthrough, so you're likely to get about eight hours of gameplay out of this game, give or take. Replay value is low to non-existent, but it's certainly worth that first time around.

I love it! It has many buttons to push!

I like gore, fairytale-like games and delicate indies, which makes Fran Bow probably my favorite game in 2015 and 2016.

The style of Fran Bow is cute and creepy. It blurs the reality and hallucination as it intends to and does a really great job. The art fits the atmosphere really well. The majority of the characters and scenes of the game look as if they come from a children’s story book, which reminds me of American Mcgee’s Alice series and a movie called Babadook. They all use the innocence of the art style to forge some really disturbing, dark and gore things which leads to a strong contrast to represent how some innocent life gets sucked into the vortex of chaos. Not only is the art so expressive, but the animations in Fran Bow is so well polished as well. I really like the animations of Itward. He looks so clumsy which cannot be more suitable for a tall and gentle skeleton imaginary friend. I think animations of the characters is what contributes to the immersion of the game the most. Music, however, is not that memorable, but it has the atmosphere needed and it is still far better than mediocre.

As a point & click adventure puzzle game, the story and writings of Fran Bow is fascinating. The story itself is really dark and sad at first. But Fran manages to stay enthusiastic and curious throughout the game. Many point & click games have the protagonist reacting to things that can be clicked on. In Fran Bow, the reaction is mostly adorable and humorous, just like when it comes from a 10-year-old girl (with mental problem). The lines do not have to be sharp or smart but to remain childish and concerning that, I think the game does a better job than many Triple A titles because the lines fit the character well.

As for the story, apart from its dark and fabulous nature, many part of it has some kind of metaphor and I think some of them are not really clear. The ending is controversial. It is a bit cliffhanging and hopefully it will be explained in a sequel. I think the ending is very similar to the endings of Alice: Madness returns and Pan’s Labyrinth. I kind of like the ending. It is heart-warming and open. However, the pace in the last chapter is too fast that a lot of terrible facts are revealed but there is no valid explanation. Although there is some foreshadowing, it is still clunky for some characters to suddenly appear as a bad guy. I really look forward to getting more answers from a sequel.

Fran Bow is a relatively small game which does not have that much content and really complex mechanics. As for what it already has, I think it’s mind-blowing enough. The game has the power to impress and inspire people which is a result of really careful design from the developers. Fran’s characteristics such as enthusiasm and curiosity must have something to do with the designer Natalia herself, though I don’t get where all those gores come from. I think it is a good way to craft indie games and it needs devoting a great part of life to it so one cannot do that very often. Anyway, I think it’s a brilliant start and Killmonday will be on my list of ”most anticipated developers”.

我比较喜欢血腥猎奇，童话般的感觉和精致的独立游戏，弗兰波可能是我2015和2016年最喜爱的游戏。

弗兰波的风格是可爱并让人毛骨悚然的。它很好的实现了现实与幻觉的混合。艺术适合的气氛真的很好。游戏中的大多数场景好像从童话故事书中摘出来的一样，这让我想起爱丽丝梦游魔境系列和一部叫Babadook的电影。它们都使用看起来很具有童趣的艺术风格，和所描绘的黑暗甚至血腥的东西形成鲜明的对比，具有很强的视觉和情感上的冲击力。不仅是画风，弗兰波的动画也是打磨的非常好。我真的很喜欢Itward的动画，很好的表现了一个高大的骷髅绅士，还是imaginary friend。角色的动画很好的加强了游戏的沉浸感。音乐则并不是那么令人难忘的，但很符合气氛，也是挺不错的水平。

作为一个Point & Click冒险解谜游戏，弗兰波的故事和对白是非常迷人的。故事一开始是很黑暗且悲伤的。但在整个游戏中，弗兰都保持着好奇心和热情。许多Point & Click游戏会有一些主角对物件的反应。在弗兰波中，这些反应都很可爱，幽默，就像是来自于一个精神不正常的10岁小女孩。台词不需要很犀利或机智，具有童趣就很不错了。在对白的写作上，弗兰波要好于很多3A大作，因为这些台词足够贴近人物。

至于剧情，除了它的黑暗和fabulous的本质，它的许多部分具有某种隐喻，我认为有些确实不很清晰。结局是有争议的，结尾感觉有些留坑，希望续作能继续讲下去吧。我觉得结局和爱丽丝：疯狂回归和潘神的迷宫很相似。我是有点喜欢这个结局。比较开放而且挺温馨的。然而，最后一章情节急转直下，揭露了很多的黑暗秘密和反派人物，虽然之前有一定的铺垫，一个角色突然就变成恶棍还是比较难以接受的。我真的很期待续作能给出一些更好的答案。

弗兰波是一个挺迷你的游戏，没有那么多的内容和非常复杂的游戏机制，它已有的内容已经足够一颗赛艇了。这个游戏具有那种激励和鼓舞玩家的力量。弗兰的一些性格特点很明显来源于设计者娜塔莉亚本身，不过我不太清楚那些血腥的肢解画面是哪里来的灵感。我认为这是做独立游戏一个很好的方式，需要投入生活中的很大一部分，一个小规模的开发组其实一辈子很难做到几次这么全身心的投入。总之，这是个非常不错的开始，Killmonday大概也能加到我“最值得期待的开发商”列表里了。

Wow...

All I can say is after playing through this game twice, I cannot wait to play it again. Absolutely incredible, touching, mysterious, and curious.

All of the characters in this game are very unique and leave a distinct memory in your mind long after you are done playing. To think that this masterpiece was only made by two people blows my mind.

10/10 A MUST play for any Indie game lover.

An amazing game! So amazingly messed up

Creepy, confusing, and absurd, THIS is what I want out of a horror game, not that cheap jumpscare ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥t. (This game does have some jumpscares, but the game doesn't use them as a crutch, as many horror games do). The puzzle elements of the game worked well, I never got stuck for too long and the solutions always made logical sense, and I appreciate that the game lets you skip some non-puzzle-based challenges (though I only had to do this once, when I got fed up with a certain platforming challenge towards the end of the game).

Fran Bow is a very unusual game. Perfectly fits as a psychoogical horror. I don't enjoy playing point & click games that much but surprisingly this game is very fun to play. From arts to story, everything in this game is really well made. Puzzles aren't that hard since you will be able to find clues almost easily. The first chapter is pretty disturbing compared to other chapters. Must have for fans of point & click adventure games.

Awesome! So good creepy atmosphere. I love it And it also has a kickass frog.
