ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Hugo (franchise)

Okay kiddo, do you know what a franchise is? It's kind of like when you go to a big fancy restaurant and they have smaller restaurants all around town with the same name and same menu. Each of these smaller restaurants is called a franchise.

Now, do you know who Hugo is? He's a friendly and adventurous troll who loves to go on exciting adventures and explore new places. He's very popular in certain countries like Denmark, Sweden, and Norway.

So, the Hugo franchise is a collection of different things (like TV shows, movies, video games, and more) that all feature the character Hugo. It's like a big family of all the different things that Hugo has done or been a part of. People who like Hugo can watch the TV shows, play the video games, and even buy toys or clothes with his picture on them!

Does that make sense, little one?
