Wobble Frog
Review

Wobble Frog (2018) is a game about a toy frog traversing a simple world to collect coins. The controls are simple, so simple that you can only control either your foot or your head. This makes it a joyously frustrating game where you work with the limited movement and physics of your little frog to get where you need to go.

To play you use one slider to control your feet and one for your head. It seems difficult (impossible) at first, but as you persevere you learn how to move in the direction you need to. As you progress through the levels, you encounter increasingly challenging terrain and obstacles.

The result is a game where skill is king. But this isn't the skill of quick reactions or sharp shooting. It's a game about the difficulty of coordination and the human ability to improve at something that seems insurmountable.
