    Time on Frog Island has some charm due to its appealing art style and frog NPCs, but Frog Island is not a locale that you want to book a trip to, let alone get shipwrecked at. Most of my time was spent wondering what the characters wanted me to do, and wandering around fetching items for them.

    The story is bittersweet, making it easy to connect to the main character. The art style and overall cuteness of the frog villagers also make it even more enjoyable and fun. The puzzles are seemingly easy, but the extra hindrance of having no dialogue or map allows the game to provide a fun challenge while never feeling repetitive or boring.

    Time on Frog Island probably isn’t going to set the indie scene on fire, but it is a pretty worthwhile jaunt with charming characters, a beautifully rendered world, and a level of freedom designed to reward the curious among us. Just keep in mind that, despite its approachable appearance, its minimalist design may result in a lot of wasted time spent scouring this island trying to figure out what the heck you’re supposed to do next.

    The art, the charm, the little secrets, the creative activities, and the peaceful nature of the game makes me wish there were five times as many frogs to trade with on Time on Frog Island. It probably only took about four hours to complete the main quest, and I spent another four checking off achievements and trying to find anything I might have missed. I'd happily have played another dozen hours. Time on Frog Island is time well spent.

    My Time on Frog Island is a charming little puzzle game with hidden depths. Though you end up shipwrecked there, time on the island feels like a vacation as you settle into the peaceful daily routine of the local frogs. It ticks all the boxes for me — quirky characters, a unique, adorable art style, and a fresh take on the usual puzzle genre with little touches of life-sim elements. You can easily while away your time exploring the island, solving puzzles, and discovering little secrets.

    Time on Frog Island is a charming and intriguing game, but whether it's an enjoyable one will very much depend on how you approach it. The silly frog characters and the little society they’ve developed can be cool to interact with, and there are plenty of surprises to be had as you get deeper into the trade network, but the deeper in you get, the more Time on Frog Island turns into a one-trick pony. Running errands for frogs is good for a little bit, but the lack of a map or any effective means of managing requests means that even this sole task is made needlessly more difficult.

    Time on Frog Island

    **An very charming puzzle game. The puzzles is trading items with the frogs on the island. The story is a little dark and cute. Its a single player game but you never feel alone with the frogs on the island. Its a little short but sweet. The Platinum Trophy gives a little challenge, not alot challenge but enough. I recommend everyone to play the game without guide. Its very rewarding to figure out stuff so please try it. The presentation is great with cute characters and music is fine and fits the theme! You get both the PS4 and PS5 version, if you wanna play it twice its up to you! You can tackle it in different orders and once you get a gang of it, youre going to love it!**
