Game Description:
What if Frogger was a roguelike? The answer is simple: it’d be a Froglike!
Froglike: The Frog Roguelike is a fast paced retro arcade adventure with roguelike elements.
The Lily of Time is under attack by evil bugs, and with the last of his strength, Chronos (the frog version) reached out through spacetime to summon the prophecised saviour of time - and accidentally summoned a frog.
Now they’re stuck together, and this frog is the world’s only hope!
Playing as the Nameless Frog, players must complete two key objectives:
-
Survive until the end of time itself by avoiding an onslaught of deadly enemies.
-
Keep the Lily of Time powered up as long as possible to gain points and break high scores.
Secondary objectives include spinning aimlessly as time collapses around you, and trying not to fall into the water.
Time is kind of a big deal in this game.
Features:
-
Survive through a merciless journey of increasingly intense stages, hopping into wormholes in the nick of time as the pond shifts and changes around you.
-
Gain points and break high scores by powering up the Lily of Time along the way. King of the Hill? More like King of the Pond!
-
Unlock, upgrade, and master a collection of unique items to get you out of sticky situations.
-
Obtain unique skins by completing challenges of skill! There’s no limit to the wackiness of the design, nor the laziness of our naming conventions.
-
Listen to the neverending ramblings of Chronos, creator of time (but the frog version).
