Flick frogs at the pond — three in a row scores, distance alone doesn't.

Published by

A jumping contest at the frog pond: flick your frogs towards the lake and try to land three of them in a row. Distance alone gets you nothing — the pattern is what scores. Two to four players from six, fifteen minutes.

Scoring needs three frogs in a row, not the longest jumpOpponents can block the space you neededFifteen minutes, from about six years old

Who it's for

Families who want a short dexterity game with an actual placement decision inside it.

Not for you if…

You want depth or replay variety — after a few rounds you have seen everything it does. Adults with steadier hands will beat small children consistently unless you handicap them.

Vibe's take

Physical and immediately readable: everyone can see whether a jump helped, and everyone reacts before the frog stops moving.
