Delisting
FRU was delisted on Xbox One on July 1st, 2022, according to pricing data from Deku Deals. One Reddit user posted a (presumably deleted) message from the game’s Facebook, giving the following reason for the delisting:
“We had to delist it for now as we are doing some restructuring. We are planning to re-list it again in the future!”
“We will let you know when we can share more details”
– Through Games
Another user, hellerpop, emailed Through Games in October of 2022 where they reported that the studio was closing down.
It appears that ongoing sales of FRU were too low for Through Games to justify keeping the game available on the Xbox Store. Download codes were at one point available from the developer and third-party key sites, but they have since gone out of stock.
About the Game
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.
Be precise, be careful, take on a funny pose, but most importantly, be creative with your body! Every level can be solved in multiple ways, with different poses. What sort of creative solutions can you come up with?
Discover the turbulent past of the FRU temple… through the lense of your silhouette!
