If you haven’t heard of The Frog Detective or picked up one of the three games in a Steam sale over the past couple years, I don’t know how to break it to you, but you’ve been living under a rock when it comes to this award-winning series.
Not only is the series one of the best games to feature a reptile – as we discussed in VG247’s Best Games Ever Show – it’s a series full of genuine wit and corny jokes that’ll bring a smile to any prospective sleuth’s face. More importantly, however, The Frog Detective: The Entire Mystery is arriving on Xbox Game Pass for console players at long last on October 26, so you needn’t be glued to your PC while playing!
For those unfamiliar, the trilogy of Frog Detective games will see you playing as a frog. No surprises there. It’s sort of like L.A. Noire meeting up with a bunch of Animal Crossing villagers, except it’s family friendly and these animalistic civilians have a lot more to squawk about than those in New Horizons. As a goofy-looking amphibian, you’ll be interrogating some equally-as-goofy suspects wherever you go and picking up clues, aiming to get to the bottom of whichever case is at hand.
