The Casting of Frank Stone is the ultimate narrative-based adventure for fans of the Dead by Daylight franchise, or those who can’t get enough of Supermassive Games’ horrific endeavours. It wears its influences on its sleeve and isn’t afraid to have fun, as Supermassive’s past projects — Until Dawn, The Quarry, The Dark Pictures Anthology — have shown us already.
It’s a short, entertaining romp that doesn’t take itself too seriously, and while I think its best moments will be lost on those who aren’t familiar with Dead by Daylight, The Casting of Frank Stone goes to show that Supermassive Games is, continually, going from strength to strength.
It’s about time that Behaviour Interactive decided to expand on Dead by Daylight’s lore — beyond Hooked On You: A Dead by Daylight Dating Simulator we received in 2022 — and I was overjoyed to see that Behaviour had chosen Supermassive Games to be the developer to do so.
