What’s in the Box? Dive In!

Open up the King Frog box and discover everything you need for an exciting game:

• Fifteen colorful pond tiles: These form the vibrant and ever-changing playground for your frogs.
• Twenty mosquito cards: Numbered from one to five, these cards are your key to strategic movement.
• A prestigious wooden crown: The ultimate prize, passed from frog to frog throughout the game.
• Four charming wooden frogs: Each player gets to choose their own amphibian adventurer!

How to Play: A Simple Hop to the Top!

King Frog is easy to learn, making it perfect for quick setup and immediate enjoyment. Here’s a quick rundown:

1. Choose Your Frog & Mosquitos: Each player selects a wooden frog and the corresponding set of five mosquito cards.
2. The Mosquito Shuffle: Everyone secretly chooses a mosquito card from their hand and places it face-down.
3. Turn Order Revealed: All players reveal their chosen cards simultaneously. The order of play is determined by the numbers on the cards, from lowest to highest. The player who laid the lowest card goes first, and so on.
4. Strategic Lily Pad Placement: The youngest player takes their frog and places it on any lily pad they choose. The remaining players then strategically place their frogs either directly in front of or behind the player who just moved.
5. The Crown is Yours! The frog in the front position proudly receives the wooden crown to kick off the round.
6. Landing & Keeping: If you land on a lily pad that matches the color of your frog, you get to keep the mosquito card you played! If not, you’ll have to discard it.
7. Repeat the Cycle: Players reveal their cards simultaneously again, and turns are decided by card value once more. After all frogs have moved, the frog now in the lead snatches up the glorious crown.
8. Out of Cards? You’re Out! If you run out of mosquito cards in your hand, you are eliminated from the game, and your frog is removed from the pond.

Winning the Game: The Last Frog Standing!

The ultimate victory belongs to the last player who still has cards in their hand. It’s a game of endurance and smart card management!

Tips for the Best Pond Experience:

While King Frog is designed for 2-4 players, we highly recommend playing with three to four players for the most dynamic and engaging experience. For two-player games, you can easily adapt by introducing a “dummy frog” to keep the pond lively!

We found King Frog to be an absolute delight! It’s incredibly easy to teach, making it accessible for even younger players, yet it offers enough strategic depth to keep adults thoroughly entertained. The quick rounds and engaging goal make it hard to put down.
