MONSTER
FRU is a puzzle platformer that features an innovative use of Kinect, in which your silhouette becomes a "portal" between two worlds. You will find yourself solving puzzles by strategically positioning your body, combining physical interaction with traditional platforming. The game features four completely different chapters, all based around our innovative use of the silhouette, with a unique twist to each one of them. In addition to moving and balancing your body to solve levels, you’ll also find yourself swimming inside your silhouette, striking crazy poses to activate contraptions, and awkwardly tiptoeing to avoid dangerous hazards!

While Fru might not be as long as you would like, it’s still a phenomenal experience which every Kinect owner should purchase. The hybrid gameplay is great and I wish other Kinect games I’ve played took lessons from Through Games on how to properly incorporate movement into titles.

The game clearly shows that the Kinect can be introduced into traditional games in unique, fun and useful ways to enhance the experience. It's basically the definition of Kinect integration done right and the experience was definitely lovely.

This is one of the few must buys for the year for anyone who owns a Kinect, and it is truly the first game to make me care about the technology.

FRU absolutely delighted me with its ingenuity and elegance. It has gone on to become not only a surprisingly enjoyable indie gem, but one of my absolute favorite exclusives for the Xbox One, and one of my favorites of all time. I heartily recommend this game without reservation to anyone with a Kinect peripheral and the physical ability to play it.

FRU delivers the game that the Kinect needs to remain as a viable device. The clever set of mechanics that are on offer means that if you have a Kinect currently gathering dust, you owe it a game of FRU.
