Don't go jumping to any conclusions as the second best detective on the force... The title Frog Detective more or less says it all. You are a frog hired haphazardly to investigate the happenings on a strange haunted island and unravel a mysterious mystery of unknown mysteries. You roam around the tropical scenery, talking to various more or less qualified scientists, and turning every rock in search for clues as to what is the nature of the strange ghost rumored to roam the lush tropical paradise. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3750894947 First and foremost, this is a very short game, I finished it 100% in under 1 hour, and besides the main storyline there is not much else to do, unless you want to fuzz about on a small tropical map. The gameplay is mostly wandering about, magnifying glass in hand, interacting with characters and objects that lets you progress in the story. The game is more or less on rails and that is fine, the various items are easily spotted and the characters are the right amount of quirky. The Return of Obra Dinn this is not, and most of the clues are pretty straightforward which keeps the exploration brisk and painless. The graphics looks rudimentary and almost bordering on satirical, but I kind of like it. The feel of solid craftsmanship is just what I need in the age where most of the games are asset flips or low effort AI-renditions, and the pastelly wonderland gives the game a happy whimsical atmosphere that I really adore. I found the dialogue with the inhabitants of the island to be charming, albeit I know that I have a rather dry and odd sense of humor so maybe this is more about taste. The story is silly, yet interesting enough to follow along. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3750895458 Conclusion: Recommended at a sale! This might not be the most polished game around, but it does have both character and heart! I love the fact that we are introduced to the main character as the second best detective on the force, only to be whisked away on an insane island adventure. It is a bite sized adventure on rails and should be treated as such, and I do enjoy myself some froggy detective stories!

I'd like to thank this game for opening my eyes to the plague on our society known as books. From here on out, I shall forgo the reading of books of any kind, and instead use improperly vetted internet sources for enhancing my knowledge. Thank you, again. As far as an actual review goes, it's a short, easy, funny detective game, that actually has very few detective mechanics. Most of the game is essentially one large fetch quest, with a little walking and talking on the side. If you're looking for an actual detective adventure, it's not here. But overall, I enjoyed it, and am looking forward to my time with the next two games. Apparently the third one is quite good.

Frog Detective is stupid fun at its finest. Lots of silly dialogue and minor adventure/detective mechanics. It's worth picking up for a couple of bucks to be amused for an hour.

This game was goofy, funny, and cute. If you want a quick but fun game then you should play this. I love the alligator in it, its so funny talking to him in the beach chair.

Frog very good detective. And he's got some sick dance moves. I'm taking notes as we speak.
