Well this has to be one of the strangest games I have ever seen. You are Professor Hilfe and your laboratory is on fire. To help you you must find all the parts of FRANKIE the robot scattered around the level. And it gets stranger, what on earth is Hilfe supposed to be? Anyway, this is quite alright actually, the response levels of the keys are far greater than I expected it to be and the gameplay is straightforward enough once you get your head around it. But you can only carry one piece of FRANKIE at a time and when you do the other pieces block your path, which got annoying very quickly. Plus when you die with the piece collected you still carry that piece when you respawn, which again got annoying quickly. But this surprised the hell out of me, it's actually quite playable and enjoyable.
