Howdy partners! Time to saddle-up and help an amphibian cowboy solve some mysteries.
In Frog Detective 3: Corruption at Cowboy County, you're a detective – and a frog – and it's time for ya’ll to solve a mystery in the Wild West.
After a three-year wait, since Frog Detective 2, the final instalment in the trilogy was launched in late 2022. Created by Worm Club here in Naarm (Melbourne) the game is as hilarious as its predecessors – and now you can also ride a scooter.
In this final chapter of one of the greatest mystery franchises of all time, all the hats in Cowboy County have gone missing. The town is full of potential suspects and to uncover the truth you'll have to chat to them, solve their problems and giddy-up to collect items to help find out where the hats disappeared to.
A country music-inspired, twangy, silly, original soundtrack accompanies Frog Detective on his crime-solving adventures.
All three games in this series are well worth a play and the graphics are colorful, funny and cute.
Available for PC and Xbox.
The Frog Detective series is distilled joy … the sort of games that defy you to feel blue when you're done. And Frog Detective 3: Corruption at Cowboy County is the best of the lot.
