In the forest, Fran goes into shock over the loss of her parents and when she recovers, she’s at Oswald Asylum, an oppressive mental institution for children, and Mr. Midnight is nowhere to be found.

I LOVE THIS GAME TO BITS! If you are considering buying this game (and the rest of the chapters) I have a fair warning. This is NOT for the faint of heart. There IS blood and gore, but that’s part of what makes it good. If you DONT like watching intestines falling from the sky then don’t get this game 😂 But if you are fine with gore, definitely buy this. It’s a sad yet hopeful story about a ten year old girl who is so innocent that what is happening to her is so completely unfair that it makes you want to see the end. If you are one of those people who buy/play point and click games and whenever people are talking you just clickclickclickclick till they’re done, this game is not for you. The art style is BEAUTIFUL, I love the Tim Burton vibes this game gives off. This game is what inspires my LOVE for HORROR games. I had my friends play this and they all had nightmares for weeks! They were all legitimately angry at me for a long time 😂 Don’t go to all the most critical, because that’s full of 12 year old girls who are impatient and if a game crashes ONCE they think they have the right to sue everyone. Listen to MY review. If you LOVE MARKIPLIER LIKE ME, PLAY THIS GAME!!!!! It’s SO GOOD! —Keala Marie—-
Well...I’m speechless

Yes, it’s an amazing game. But there should be a viewer alert due to the countless images of overdone gore/blood & murder scenes. Wasn’t planning on purchasing this game since it seemed like a money pit: it’s broken down into 5 chapters at $1.99 each. But tried the first chapter and was immediately hooked. I’m NOT a fan of gore or psychological horror games...especially when it comes to children. But Fran Bow is such a sweet, innocent character with her bestie Mr Midnight, that her kindness and giggles balanced out the macabre. Strange dichotomy in an adventure game. But it worked. Because the creativity, amazing world building, interesting characters and unusual puzzles really drew me in and wishing for more (with less gore).But this game is also an expose of psychological trauma in children. These devs must have done a lot of research to understand how severe trauma affects the psyche of children. And while it’s a taboo topic, society must face such realities in order to have Compassion & Empathy for the most vulnerable. The devs were able to touch on the mental breaks actually found in children while leaving the character intact and finding personal strength & control.Maybe it’s the storyline...maybe it’s the heart wrenching empathy we feel for the suffering of innocents...but this is one of those games that just leaves a permanent imprint. That said...this game should have an age restriction. So much blood and gore. And please...dead babies should NEVER be used as prop imagery in a game....never.Each chapter took about an hour and I do feel like I got my money’s worth
LISTEN TO THE PROPAGANDA!!

unfortunately i cannot comment on the complete game since i had to buy each chapter before the complete game came out, but i’m leaving a review to say..LISTEN TO THE PROPAGANDA!! BUY THIS GAME!! franbow was an absolute life changer, which is a bit silly to say about a game like this, but it’s the truth. i originally watched a gameplay on it when i was a young chap and purchasing the game years later… it did not disappoint however i must say, it’s not for everyone, so definitely watch the trailer and check trigger warnings for any concern, but overall i can say that the game is amazing. it’s not very glitchy too. I ❤️ you, kill monday games!
Beyond awesome sauce!!!!
