About This Game

ATTENTION: This title utilizes a physical based movement system, with no teleportation options. It’s advised to previously have gotten used to VR. Feeling eye strain or nauseous? Take a break! Pushing through motion sickness is not recommended.

You are a Frog named Paul who has just released a novel into the world, though not to the reception you’d have hoped. With critics calling it ‘unimaginative’, Paul feels over-encumbered by the weight of failure. After using the proceeds from his novel to move into the scenic country, Paul begins to struggle with keeping his spirits up, and self-reflects on his life choices. What comes next? Should He even write again?

Dealing with themes of braving the unknown, finding ones’ self, and dealing with Isolation, play as Paul The Frog as he adventures through the lush forests and mountains surrounding his new home. Build meaningful relationships with your neighbors, and re-connect with old friends. Will you find the magic answer to all your problems?
