New Name, Same Great Game! Time on Frog Island Will Leap Onto Consoles and Into Retail This Summer.
Digital and physical releases confirmed for the sandbox puzzle adventure game
UK publisher Merge Games and Copenhagen, Denmark-based development studio Half Past Yellow are excited to reveal that the sandbox puzzle adventure game, Time on Frog Island (previously called Trading Time: A Croak Tale) will be available as a physical retail release on Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5 and Xbox One / X|S as well as digitally for all platforms including PC via Steam this summer. After working with the community and testers, Merge Games made the decision to change the name to Time on Frog Island as they feel it better represents the gameplay experience.
In Time on Frog Island, a sailor is shipwrecked on a strange island after a terrible storm and he awakes to find his boat in ruins. Clutching his precious potted plant, the sea dog goes about trying to fix his boat and find his way home. However, the peculiar frog-like locals don’t speak his language and they aren’t about to give up the items he needs without something in exchange! A spaghetti network of trades will take him all over this strange island as he seeks out materials to fix his boat.
Meet a cast of friendly characters, solve head-scratching puzzles, find hidden treasures, and much more as you explore this toadally awesome island sandbox adventure.
