About

In Frogun, Renata is left at base camp by her explorer parents whilst they set out on an expedition to the Beelzebub ruins. When they mysteriously disappear, Renata must set out on a rescue mission with the help of their latest invention—the Frogun, an intelligent, frog-shaped grappling tool. Rich in depth, collectables, challenges, and featuring vibrant crisp pixel graphics, players journey with Renata and her best friend, the titular Frogun. Through mystical jungle ruins, dark depths, freezing snow caps, and scorching lava swamps, you’ll hunt for treasure, dodge perilous hazards, and fight enemies and challenging bosses along the way.

Experience dozens of levels set across many uniquely themed worlds, encounter other mysterious adventurers, and find unlockable secrets, collectables and in-game achievements, as well as notes left by pirates, raiders, and previous explorers of the ruins. To reward collection maniacs, Frogun‘s coins can be traded for unlockable cosmetics and behind-the-scenes peeks. Upon 100 percent completion of the game, players can unlock an expert time trials mode which provides a set of pro times to beat for each level and should serve as a speed runner‘s dream, alongside a bonus dedicated speed-running mode.
