The Casting of Frank Stone seems to be an odd title for a horror sport. It nearly implies we must know who Frank Stone is, or why his “casting” (no matter meaning on this context) is notable. However after enjoying the sport’s prologue, I nonetheless really feel out of the loop. Supermassive, well-known for cinematic horror video games reminiscent of Till Daybreak, The Quarry, and The Darkish Footage Anthology, has been handed the reins to Behaviour Interactive’s Useless By Daylight (DBD) franchise for a cinematic spin-off that performs very like its different common video games.
For me, Frank Stone would be the newest spooky romp via an interactive film through which all the playable characters can die (or reside) by the tip of the sport, relying on my selections. For greater Useless By Daylight followers, there is definitely a further layer to get pleasure from, which in flip could properly create new DBD followers anyway–which is the purpose, in fact. However what each teams have in widespread is its central thriller: Who’s Frank Stone and, moreover, why is he homicidal?
These disparate teams of gamers could have completely different motives, however they’re largely asking the identical questions, and if the sport can satisfyingly reply these questions, Supermassive could have its subsequent hit on its palms, whereas Behaviour could have a brand new path to increasing its already-impressive horror universe.
