note: this gameshow is like actual liveleak shit. its not a televised gameshow, its streamed on some sort of dark web where all the viewers remain completely anonymous. this is also why i think the protag is an adult. note 2: the room you fall into is a room you visit earlier, with a LOT of grinding rails. its possible the protag held onto one of them

I don't think you paid attention to the game as much as you said you did, because it's heavily implied that the gameshow is done through the dark web or something because the player character is attracting so much attention that police have just found out about it.

[@sin8145]

Not even heavily implied but outright Real Frankie SAYS it's a PRIVATELY broadcasted gameshow, Idk how he missed that. Also how in the world did he come to the conclusion that a kid would have an appartment of his own and buy 700+ cereal boxes, indebting himself just to get in the show. He also missed the rails we literally use to get through the incinerator bein the way the contestant saved his life after Hexa Havoc, like, if you look up you can even SEE the HH arena already there when you get to the utilidoors

[@Velarix]

@@sin8145 Yeah, it's really not even a mystery to how he survived the fall. It's more of a mystery to how the monster Frankie missed hitting a single rail that went across the center of the room than anything since there were at least 3 that converged there.

@@offbranddorito9668 That "Golden Ticket" VHS absolutely would give a player who isn't a part of the world that we're being shown the impression that what is happening... 1. Is happening to a child (given the brightly-colored mascot cereal brand that traditionally is marketed toward children especially in an era where VHSs are being used) 2. Is happening on a Television Broadcast as opposed to the Internet Dark Web (because many people, especially zoomers, forget that the Dark Web was how the internet started and predominantly was during the 1980s through 1990s) 3. Is something that is generally known about. (Simply put, this is a failure on the game's writing team for not being clear enough with the narrative they were trying to express. Doesn't mean it's bad. Just it could have been more clear.) This is a channel hosted by a cartoon dog talking predominantly about indie video games. No need to be rude and insulting. If you're not vibing here, you don't need to stay. If you do not get how much of a challenge it can be to soak in all of the content when playing an action horror game that is all about movement and momentum, then perhaps, unironically, you should actually give doing this job a try. Insulting people for stupid reasons just makes you seem like a small-minded person with nothing you have to offer society except whinging. That is the surest way to be liked by nobody and forgotten by everybody. For your own sake, do better.

Okay something that bothered me here: it is not a TV show. As explained in the ending: it is PRIVATELY brodcasted. It’s on the “dark web,” only available for those who actively hunt for it, and have the means to access it. I’m pretty sure the term is a “Red Room”

A few things that I think you slightly got wrong: 1) It's implied the protagonist is an adult, since they were able to buy thousands of cereal boxes and have their own apartment 2) It's also implied the show is being streamed on the dark web and not like a TV show 3) The room where you fall has tons of rails, the protagonist would totally be able to just grab one of these 4) About henry hotline "being held here by frankie", in a secret room it's implied that everything is staged and frankie, other frankie and henry hotline are just animatronics controlled remotly by other peopl,, so they don't reallly have a backstory

[@YvaanAvesna]

8:00 Uh, no, you’re not a child. You’re an adult with money problems who rents a crappy apartment as revealed during the game. Also, the reason people keep entering the contest is because everyone thinks the “deaths” are faked. You can see in the livestream that people are commenting things like “I wish they tone the blood down” and such.

[@sugarp1e174]

Also, the ending explained that the show is privately broadcasted on the dark web. It’s not being shown on live cable/satellite TV where the average Joe can see it; it's a Red Room you have to actively look for online like in Welcome to the Game.

[@molluscumlore]

@@BeartifulAri The proportions. Skinny arms, skinny chest, large head (effect of the costume), and in comparison to the machines they look very small. That last one is entirely subjective, but the rest are very much childlike, though tbh it looks like an intentional effect of the costume to childify adults. Like, look at stock images of kids and adults. Adults generally have more curves in their torso, even if you aren't traditionally curvy. For women it's breasts and hips, men it's a wider chest and smaller butt, and while this varies person to person if you lack curves in your torso completely it definitely makes you look more childish (even if other aspects don't). If you look much closer you can see how much the costume seems to intentionally be causing this effect, covering up arm and leg muscle, flattening any curves in the torso, and making the head look much larger relative to the body. But that requires a closer look than you'd take playing casually, to see how thick the costume appears to be where covering up all those features is a given. Tbh that seems about par for the course as far as dark web videos go though, lots of fucked up shit happens to kids in those and faking adults as kids is actually a bit better than i'd expect. Wouldn't be surprised if it was only for some cynical reason instead of because they actually don't wanna kill kids though, like kids not being able to figure out their own travel, child murder getting more attention than random poor and homeless adults, being weaker and clumsier than adults on average, having to go through parents to get kids to join which also draws attention, stuff like that. They're tryna get that pedo money without getting that child murder attention

I think Deputy Duck was meant to make fun of how mascot horror games have a gimmick that isn’t used practically, like Poppy with the Grabpack (not saying the Grabpack is useless, more like what PR team would approve of that), Banban with the drone, Muzy with the Gun, and Security breach with the faz-watch/faz-wrench

[@johancito16345]

I mean, the faz wrench is the most practical think a mascot horror could have as a gimmick

[@TheBadlandsSandvich]

The problem with this is that the game never communicates this or invites the player to be in on the joke. Instead, the game plays it completely straight, and players are left to independently construct this interpretation using external knowledge of other games with similar issues. If the developers did intend for Deputy Duck’s lack of impact to be a self-aware joke or commentary, they didn’t convey it effectively as every other reviewer I’ve seen and many causal players have conveyed a similar gripe. As a result, the explanation feels less like an intentional design choice and more like a convenient excuse for poor execution. There needs to be SOME sort of acknowledgment in-game. Just a simple quip or mention on how useless they've been would have been better than nothing. And the game has precedent for this kind of self-aware humor, as seen with the ‘Real’ Frankie explicitly mocking convoluted Mascot Horror plots by saying, “…and definitely not a lazily written plot device to keep our viewers engaged...” when we meet him out of nowhere. Applying a similar joke to Deputy Duck would have fixed this entirely.

[@ffffffffROTHY]

People have already said this, but I'll say it anyway. YOU ARE NOT PLAYING AS A CHILD. Your character owns an apartment, I don't know how you misinterpreted the vision at the end, other than you being confused as to how they survived. Everyone has said that spot you fall in has grind rails all over it. There's also two spots where you can find more lore info. One is a tucked away office that has a document that has the player's crappy apartment purchase listed on it, explaining how Real Frankie knows that. Another has the livestream chat for the show. This is the other thing you got wrong that people are screaming at you for. THE SHOW IS NOT TELEVISED. It's supposed to be streamed on the dark web, which is how they've been getting away with getting so many people killed for every season. Other than that, yeah, you made some good points. I hadn't actually considered how the contestant costume makes the perfect excuse to bring the player back. The devs said they'll be working on a new game alongside content updates for Frankie, so hopefully they'll continue to do well.

[@G3arsandc0gs]

I believe the explanation is that Finding Frankie's gameshow is streamed on the dark web, which is why police was never involved until recently due to the recently killed contestants being right at the entrance. Also the events of this gameshow are entirely scripted, some of the scenes are quickly shoved in last minute because they didn't expect a contestant to actually make it that far. I believe how the player survived is intentionally meant to be unknown and make no sense because Real Frankie himself saved them in some way. They knew that keeping them alive was making them more money.

[@Goose_that_goes_honk]

Ok so at the start when you run in to the hall Frankie comes out of to kill the other contestants, you can actually see the guy to your left slowly shimmying back to the hallway we came out of if you turn around before it shuts, AstralSpiff’s video shows it clearly, I think our guy we first play as did die, and the other dude at the end was just playing the waiting game

[@someperson7797]

Nah that dude was killed by Frankie during your tutorial room (as told by Frankie and also by the Police report later) 3 bodies at entrance of the facility 2 were mangled in the "cutscene" and that dude shimmied away. His corpse was probably the one that caught the police's attention since he wasn't in the, more secluded ,entrance hall. PC likely survived the ending via the grindrails which you used earlier to unlock a door in the incinerator room.

There is also a few hidden rooms full of lore. There's the CEO office and a room with deactivated animatronics in it, the latter being located at the start of the game behind a locked door.

The were supposed to die on hexa havoc. Also about the police part, the screens at the start of frosted peaks is full of anonymous chatters. Meaning it'll be more like a darkweb red room sorta thing. So the general public won't have access to know it exists. Oh and normal frankie is in basically every room watching you. Unrelated to lore but in the flooded room, evil frankie is actually a threat and has hands come down to try and grab you. Only ever seen 1 playthrough actually see it, everyone else seems to miss it and never get grabbed.

So let's see here - The main character is very clearly an adult and not a child - The game show was never investigated before because it's streamed privately on the dark web, not on TV - The apartment Frankie shows you is very clearly meant to be an abstract visual, not a literal representation of where the protagonist lives - The pit you fall into at the end has multiple rails throughout that the protagonist could easily have grabbed onto. - The whole game is clearly a satire on the mascot horror genre, not something meant to be taken seriously on its own.

Ive written this comment around 12 hours after release and ive seen not a single comment liked or answered by uhyeah and im not sure if he even read through them, but if he did, why wouldn't he correct his mistake in his own comment?

Bro your not a kid in the game because… 1. A kid wouldn’t need 5,000,000$ 2. In the ending it shows that the player before the whole game, was broke and going bankrupt which is not what a child would be in….. unless they need money for their family. 3. If it was a kid, then they would at least have some kind of guardian to make sure the child is safe.

I’m a tad upset that he didn’t mention Frankie finding Henry and basically bashing him for not getting the player, yeah it’s a small moment and later it’s revealed that Henry was still alive but I felt like there was a lot of emotion coming from the VA of Henry, and every VA in the game for that matter!!

[@mono7480]

i’m not surprised he did, it seems he didn’t pay close attention to the game anyways, he missed like all the major details especially him thinking the player was a child, when they are obviously an adult

[@thatonebonkchoyguy]

Screw it. I'm going to convince Frankie from Finding Frankie to adopt my mother, therefore making him my grandmother, so that this technically is the Granny video in a sense

[@Tf2dudereal]

No offense but I think you just aren’t used to mascot horror games that aren’t walking simulators Indigo park had walking and one chase scene and that’s “peak” But Finding Frankie has parkour physics and no “chapter” label put on it and that is “almost perfect”

[@Lavender2005]

[@zayaanghanchi3905]

during the game you can see it is a privately hosted channel and there is a live chat most people think its fake calling out how there is too much blood and how its not believable

[@darrenchambers5721]

The amount of people killed in the gameshow can be calculated, first, times 56 ( the amount of gameshows before our one) by 4 ( the amount of contestants in the game show) which is 224 plus 3 contestants in our gameshow. Which equals 227 contestants killed.

[@Noob......]

Another to thing that finding Frankie does well is the death cutscenes. When you die, unlike other mascot horror games where you are just shoved into the mascots face and being eaten, you see yourself die. Very nice detail.

[@cerealthe72nd]

the characters are adults (the player one has an apartment) and the show is explicitly stated to be private broadcasts which is why the company was going to go bankrupt, most likely being on the dark web or something other than that amazing video as usual! edit: there's also a rail in the incinerator room that leads back to frankie's room, so maybe when you fall the MC lands on it?? no idea

[@onesingularpog3613]

the way i interpreted everything with the police and how franky's hasn't been caught yet is that its all hosted on the dark web, because it just straight up wouldn't be feasible to have that kinda content hosted on a platform like twitch or youtube anyway.

[@Chaotic_Overlord]

Frankie Is my favorite kick streamer.

[@HALFTONECHAO]

"you play as a child" ??? HUH

[@RowanBreen]

20:28 I beg to differ. If you look at the doorway in the background, you can see a railing that runs below you while you fall. Any one who watched a play through knows how much speed these railings offer and you can jump off them. Checkmate

[@Glacier-Pup]

In the electrical room of the utilidoors, there is one switch saying "fake blood". As well as that, on the live chat there are people saying "the gore on this episode is a bit over the top, isn't it?" Or something like that. Also, there are many of these "bodies" found much later in the course, which wouldn't make sense considering no one ever made it that far into the course. I think it's safe to assume that normally in their contests it is just a horror attraction, although for whatever reason before going bankrupt they decided to... just kill the contestants instead, for some reason. None of the other contestants seemed to expect frankie was about to pop out as the course started either, which means that was never done before. Oh also, when the player falls, it's in the same trash room as before, with the giant rails that are very easy to slide across, which very easily explains how they would live. And the house with floating furniture is clearly just meant to be a cool scene?? Not seriously furniture floating all around the house??

[@AleckGamer40]

21:39 Frankie literally states it's privately broadcasted, it's not a pre-recorded TV show at all, what are you talking about?! Also, the protagonist is very obviously an adult, I have no idea where you got the fricking child idea from. We already have Theft King, we don't need a second one.

[@FrownToClown]

Actually, what you call the "real" Frankie is infact not the real frankie, as found in an easter egg room.

You do realize the story is mostly satire of Mascot horror? The whole game is. The random shitty twist of two Frankies, the tumblr sexy man with next to no real character, the unexplained ending, the useless tool that obscures your vision (deputy duck), you never even need to use his flash. It's short because mascot horror tends to end on a cliff hanger, especially chapters. Also a shorter game can be better for speed running.

[@andrewdiaz3529]

$15 for a shitpost is steep then

[@dominguezrobotics6753]

so from my understanding, only the first 18 or so season were publicly aired, and those were actually family friendly, then the "19th" season is the one they constantly loop which is the less family friendly one and season "19" is only aired PRIVATELY on the dark web and in reality it isn't season 19 you're playing in, its season 57.

My guess is that monster Frankie swatted at the player to try and kill him before he dies. But instead pushed him away from the pit by accident and maybe the player grabbed on one of the poles. So pretty much the player got lucky.

[@therealHLY]

importnt world thing I think UhYeah missed while playing; while franie's parkour palace is broadcast, its done through generic secret evil gambling underground dark web means for rich assholes to gamble on, rather than being on, like, normal television. which also sort of explains how they get away with all the murder and also implies that a lot of the "contestants" maybe aren't here by choice, or at least, less choices, as the game goes out of its way to say you were living in a crappy apartent and had money problems before. prolly why they'd risk their lives for it also, deputy duck's flashlight does have a second use; it stuns henry during the maze section. its still not particularly helpful as most of the time you just accidentally run into him rather than get caught, but its there

Honestly, I've disliked you ever since your "interview" (bashing) of the creator of Post Shift 2, and basically scaring them away from ever making any fangames ever again.

[@nessie6899]

Yeah that interview was a huge miss for me too, the creator sounded like a kicked dog and uhyeah just kept at it

[@MindGrublin]

Theory: The guy that survived is actually a second guy who survived by slowly following the first guy and hiding away from the monsters to survive, the second game would follow how he survived and instead of the first thing again it adds hiding mechanics and alot the Parkour is off since everyone believes only one guy survived, the challenge is to keep it that way to keep your success rate high

[@blinky6254]

It's privately streamed to an audience, not a public TV show and the contestants are not children, they're adults, you silly

i personally . dont think the protag is a child ?? none of that would make sense - you live in your own apartment, dark web hints, why would a child need 5 million dollars, that is not a child model at all, i dont think a child could do that type of parkour??
