Released in 1985 by Ocean Software and developed by Denton Designs, Frankie Goes to Hollywood is one of the most unconventional and ambitious games ever created for the Commodore 64. Inspired directly by the music, imagery, and themes of the band, it drops you into the bizarre town of Mundanesville on a symbolic journey toward the mythical Pleasuredome.

Rather than following a single genre, the game blends exploration, action, puzzles, and narrative experimentation. You play as an anonymous everyman, raising four core personality stats — Sex, War, Love, and Faith — by collecting key items and completing more than 60 wildly varied mini-games. These range from arcade-style challenges and logic puzzles to a full murder mystery subplot that adds an unexpectedly dark investigative edge.

Progression is non-linear and often cryptic, encouraging experimentation and curiosity rather than brute force. Every discovery nudges your character closer to enlightenment, making the experience feel more like an interactive art piece than a traditional videogame.

On the Commodore 64, the surreal visuals are matched by Fred Gray’s powerful SID soundtrack, which reinterprets elements of Frankie Goes to Hollywood’s music in striking 8-bit form. Celebrated for pushing creative boundaries, the game was later ranked number one in Commodore Force’s Top 100 C64 Games list and remains a landmark in interactive storytelling.
