Our take on A frog in a well
The focus on extreme difficulty and temperature-based rocket control makes movement demanding, but it leaves less room for a relaxed platforming pace. After completion, the additional goals center on records and five achievements.
What is A frog in a well?
This two-dimensional platform game casts a miner into an imagined realm controlled by extraterrestrial creatures.
He must climb from a well toward the open blue sky by dodging dangers, clearing jumps, and directing a rocket pack while airborne. Temperature and fuel require constant attention: excessive heat disables propulsion, whereas insufficient warmth weakens its force. Coins gathered along the route purchase improvements at save locations. Seven progressively harder regions make up the ascent, with examples including Scorching Space, Frozen Wasteland, and Dark Castle. Finishing the journey opens record-chasing and five achievement goals. The narrative follows a miner who joins asteroid-belt extraction work to pay for his seriously ill daughter’s medical care.
