Description



Kamaeru is a cozy frog collecting game about farming and preserving nature. You play as a kind soul helping an old friend restore the wetlands of your childhood by transforming them into a safe haven for friendly little frogs. With the help of the game’s cast of welcoming NPCs, you will photograph and breed frogs to increase your reputation, decorate your frog refuge, and plant native crops to help your amphibian abode thrive!

Collect frogs 🐸

Feed, breed, collect, and raise all of the game’s 500+ frogs! 🐸 It’s up to you to figure out the secret to attracting new and adorable frogs. You can complete your collection by unlocking all the rare colors through a special breeding mini-game. When new ones join your refuge, use the in-game camera to take photos of them and collect them for your frogedex!

Restore the wetlands 🌾

In order to succeed in your quest for frog preservation, you will need to restore the nearby wetlands to their former glory. This will allow you to continually support and cultivate the area through a process known as paludiculture!

Dig ponds to let water roam the land again and plant native wetlands species to harvest precious crops. From there, you can transform your pickings into manufactured goods that can be sold to improve your froggy habitat further!

Customize your frog refuge 🎨

New furniture will bring new frogs with it! As you personalize your habitat, new poses of frogs will be shown into specific kinds of furniture. Plus, it’ll attract attention to the area–and with it, new visitors! You can even repaint furniture to better fit your own unique style sensibilities.

It's cute, but it's essentially a glorified clicker game with some random mini-games thrown in. It doesn't really have any longevity worth talking about and even an hour and a half in it was getting too grindy.

The longer you play the more glitches and bugs it's has, especially when it comes to breeding. More bugs when streaming. Controller input glitches and freezes.

I’m sorry, but I can’t really recommend Kamaeru: A Frog Refuge. I went into it expecting a simple and relaxing creature collector with cute frogs, decorating, and a little story attached. Instead, it ended up being much

This game combines 2 loves of mine. Cozy gaming and Herpetology <3 There are tons of great customization options for the frogs, furniture, and other items for you frog sanctuaries. I love the idea of playing TicTacToe

Cosy game, fun to play. But man - breeding them frogs takes hours. Tic, tac, toe, give me a high, give me a low, give me three in a row. And ♥♥♥♥ - still got the same colour again.

The art style is really cute! The message of the game is wholesome without being judgmental or preachy. The game play could be repetitive for some, but I found that the frequent and different unlocks made it feel more
