About Finding Frankie
Finding Frankie drops you into a twisted parkour game show where cartoon mascots turn lethal. After uncovering a secret invitation hidden in Frankie’s cereal, you join two rivals in a competition that quickly becomes a fight for survival.
The game blends classic parkour moves—running, jumping, swinging, sliding—with a dark narrative. Across the sprawling Frankie's Parkour Palace you’ll traverse indoor trampolines, ventilation shafts, and shadowy tunnels while a quirky ally, Deputy Duck, offers visual support.
01 / THE GUIDE
Narrative Premise
The story begins when a player finds one of three hidden invitations inside a box of Frankie’s branded cereal. This invitation pulls you into a seemingly cheerful parkour competition that soon reveals a sinister purpose.
Familiar faces such as Frankie and Henry Hotline abandon their cartoon innocence, becoming hostile obstacles as contestants are systematically eliminated, turning the show into a deadly contest.
- Notice how each arena’s visual tone shifts from playful to threatening; the change often signals tougher enemy behavior.
- Use the narrative cue of eliminated contestants to anticipate when the environment may become more hazardous.

Core Parkour Actions
Players run, jump, swing, and slide across a variety of obstacles. The game lists specific mechanics such as bar swinging, wall jumping, rail grinding, and trampoline hopping, giving multiple ways to cross each course.
These actions are essential for navigating the intricate levels while avoiding enemies, requiring precise timing and spatial awareness to survive each segment.
- Practice each movement type in a low‑risk area to build confidence before tackling tighter sections.
- Combine actions—like a wall jump followed by a swing—to maintain momentum through longer gaps.

Deputy Duck Companion
When you are not actively swinging or wall‑jumping, a sidekick named Deputy Duck accompanies you. Duck can emit flashing lights and perform radar scans, adding a visual layer to the experience.
Duck’s signals provide quick visual cues about nearby hazards, offering a subtle contrast to the surrounding horror.
- Watch Duck’s flashing lights and radar scans as visual cues while you navigate.
- Use the radar scan as a brief way to gauge enemy positions without pausing the action.

Frankie's Parkour Palace
The setting spans the expansive Frankie's Parkour Palace, featuring indoor trampoline parks, intricate obstacle courses, ventilation shafts, and dark labyrinthine tunnels beneath the building.
Each area presents distinct spatial challenges, from open, bouncy arenas that let you regain speed to cramped shafts that demand careful, controlled movement.
- Mentally map each section; tight shafts often require slower, deliberate actions.
- Use open trampoline zones to rebuild momentum after a difficult maneuver.

Solo Competition Mode
Finding Frankie is a single‑player experience where you compete against two AI contestants. The focus is on personal skill and survival rather than cooperative play.
Steam Achievements track progress, and Family Sharing allows other account holders to experience the same solo challenges.
