Our take on The Search For Fran
The broad activity mix trades depth in any one mechanic for variety. Searching, quests, vehicles, collecting, and challenge rules share the same setting, so players seeking a deeply developed driving, flying, or simulation system may find the scope limited.
What is The Search For Fran?
The Search for Fran takes place in City Park, where the main objective is to find Fran as Remis Vancosid.
Along the search, players can speak with people, undertake quests, collect Glorbs, throw a ball, drive a car, fly a ship, and fix traffic jams. The game also includes optional challenges, including finding Archor Games logos, completing a speed run, locating every non-player character, and finishing the game while walking without sprinting or high jumps. Additional challenges involve sharing scenic screenshots or a full walkthrough video. The game is also presented as part of an alternate reality game involving other Archor Games titles.
