CD-ActionJun 5, 2018A collection of varied party minigames, great for kids, too easy for adults with some gaming experience. [05/2018, p.80]
-
Apr 11, 2018Frantics is a great entry for Playlink with impressive use of mobile devices for casual mini-games. The games are imaginative, amusing and easily accessible for everyone. If you are looking for a well-made game to casually spend time together with your friends, you cannot go wrong with Frantics.
-
Mar 19, 2018Although it’s not exactly the title that’s going to make this whole PlayLink experiment the next big thing, there are enough positive qualities here for me to recommend the game to anyone who is a fan of the genre.
-
Mar 13, 2018The game won’t win any prizes for originality and the final game can be potentially unfair, but it’s still worth checking out.
-
Mar 6, 2018A hilarious party game hosted by a sly fox, in which we take part in some crazy minigames where dirty tactics guarantee our victory.
-
Mar 6, 2018It lacks content and the tutorials could be more detailed for non-gamers, but as a party game for casual gatherings, Frantics is a very good choice.
-
Mar 6, 2018It might not be too innovative, but Frantics provides an enjoyable party experience that Sony's PlayLink service has been lacking. It certainly isn't a killer app, but the fun variety of minigames and its (mostly) responsive controls show how much of a good time PlayLink can provide when it's properly used.
-
Mar 9, 2018A good idea that have not been executed as it should be. The number of minigames and options included are really scarce.
-
Mar 16, 2018Even as a simple party game, it's difficult to recommend Frantics. There's just nothing that really stands out as a high point. It's flawed in almost every way that really matters and doesn't offer the levels of entertainment one would hope to get from a game like this.
-
Mar 9, 2018Frantics it's a funny party game for a little while, but the fun won't last so long.
-
Mar 6, 2018Frantics is an experience that we recommend only to those with at least a few friends to rely on, and only to the insatiable admirers of the competitive party game.
-
Mar 6, 2018Quotation forthcoming.
-
Mar 6, 2018Frantics is a novelty by virtue of Sony’s continued exploration of how phones can be used as controllers on a console, and I was impressed with how well that tech worked, but that’s mostly where my interest ended. Frustrating tutorials and a lack of options made a small set of already middling minigames a chore to get through, even with friends involved.
-
May 3, 2018Frantics is a party game where you use your smartphone as a controller. Despite a good amount of fun, the controls lacks precision and the game is quickly repetitive.
-
Mar 6, 2018Frantics fails to live up to its name by featuring an oddly slow pace. Beyond that it's not a fantastic party game experience, full of the same sorts of mini-games seen in past titles within the genre. Still, it works well thanks to the PlayLink functionality that allows you to use a smartphone as a controller. If you're dying for a party game for your PS4, it fits the bill, but there are better options out there.
