![]() Catch a few flies, and the frog becomes tame, at which point, you can breed it, catalog it, or sell it. You start with a couple of frogs that you have to tame (really) by taking them to the pond (see picture below) and having them jump from lily pad to lily pad to catch dragonflies. The game is essentially about breeding and raising frogs (cute things, as you can see in the picture below). Pocket Frogs is almost entirely unlike those farming games, and is much more compelling to me. Yet I know that many people are addicted to such games. And, frankly, making crops grow isn’t all that much fun. There was always the overwhelming “you must buy stuff from us to succeed” vibe that was a total turn off. I have tried GodFinger and one or two farm games and never enjoyed them in the slightest. There are many such games, mostly involving pretend farming, though GodFinger involves playing God and having worshippers and making rain. This is one of those “freemium” games that are free to play, but to speed things up, the company will happily sell you (for real money, of course) coins or potions or mana that make your life easier. The free Pocket Frogs game for iPad and iPhone doesn’t have much “game,” but it is strangely compelling and surprisingly addictive.
