The locals have trapped Franky inside the late doctor's private manor, and you (as Franky) must escape and piece together the golden tablet depicting your beautiful girlfriend Bitsy to pay the bills.

The goal is collect different objects within different levels to put something back together.
In order for Franky to recharge his health, you need to find the parts to fix the electricity machine that does it.
You will also be taken to exotic locales such as Egypt and the bottom of the ocean to find pieces of Bitsy's golden tablet.
Like its predecessor , there are many trap doors, monsters, and other obstacles that need to be overcome.
Keys are needed to unlock new areas of the game, which can be found in the far reaches of the level.
About Game Boy
The original Game Boy (1989) proved that handheld gaming didn't need cutting-edge graphics to succeed — its monochrome screen and legendary battery life, combined with Tetris as a pack-in, made it a cultural phenomenon. Game Boy cartridges are famously durable, so this remains one of the more accessible retro platforms to collect, though translucent color variants and complete-in-box copies with the original brick-sized manual add real value for condition-focused collectors.
Gamevaro tracks Dr. Franken II for Game Boy with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Dr. Franken II to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GB release dates back to 1997.
