    Two strangers are brought together as roommates by unknown forces in a conspiracy that threatens them both.

    Frank is the super of a run-down apartment block, working by day and worried he's losing his mind. Drake is allergic to sunlight and operates by night, forcing the roommates to communicate solely through sticky notes left for each other around the apartment. Despite their separation, they must forge a relationship, uncover the mystery, and survive.

    Play both characters alternately: Frank during the day, Drake at night. What they do during their times will affect what the other can do in the future

    The game's story unfolds using a branching narrative, where decisions you make can have a profound impact later. Only through multiple playthroughs will you uncover all the secrets hidden in the world of Frank and Drake and experience the different endings.

    Frank and Drake has been a pleasant, fun, emotional and highly recommended experience, a fair break from all the saturation of the AAAs and the monstrosity of their ambitious plans.

    Frank and Drake is an impressive feat thanks to its inventive art style alone, but the game manages to shine even more so hanks to a thoughtful story. Its approach to point-and-click based gameplay coupled with mature themes in its narrative make it a unique title worth trying out.

    Although the story in the adventure puzzle game Frank and Drake takes a while to get going, it does eventually draw you in. There are several, non-linear paths to complete the game, allowing you to play through several times and explore all the options and elements. And the unique, rotoscoped animation looks great through each time.

    Finally, while the narrative is exquisite, the story is sometimes slow and of little interest, and we only understand what has happened when we see it reflected in the diary at the end of the day. On such occasions it can cause the player to become disconnected from the plot. Overall, Frank and Drake is a beautiful story with its secrets and moments, masterfully drawn and looking better on a big screen than on a portable.
