A delightfully good time- Frog Detective is your most basic of adventure games in terms of mechanics but the cute, wholesome, and humorous writing carry it a long way.
The gameplay in Frog Detective amounts to running around a small environment, talking to colorful characters, and bringing items you find around the environment to said characters to progress. Oftentimes, a character will want to trade something of theirs for something you can give them so it quickly becomes just running from one dude to the next once you've got a handle on things.
Frog Detective's brevity in the first two chapters make it very fun since it almost feels like watching episodes of a delightful children's show. The stakes are very low and the dance party endings put a massive smile on my face.
I was surprised when Frog Detective 3 took things to the next level comparatively with a somewhat twisting story that flips your expectations on their head a bit. The tone is still very much in line with the other games but there's a little more to the third act this time around in the best possible way. The environment is also quite a bit bigger in the third chapter and you get a scooter that's super fun to use and quick to get around with.
Frog Detective's third chapter has a definitive ending and I was surprised by how endearing it felt with how short the overall experience was. While these games are completely unchallenging and resort to very simple fetch quests at several junctures, they have a distinct and very cute voice to them. Don't miss out on the Frog Detective.
