Short description
The Frogs is a point-and-click adventure game based on the play by Aristophanes. Play as Dionysus as you survive awful puns and break all the fourth walls. It's an ancient Greek comedy with Renaissance art and 18th century classical music... and that identity crisis is just the tip of the iceberg.
About this game
Dionysus, the god of wine, is feeling somber. He's turned some pirates into dolphins. He's thrown a king or two into a cave. And now some other king in Thebes is talking smack. But none of that has cheered him up. It's the playwrights the kids listen to these days. Mumble poets and people using automatons to speak their lines... he's sick of it. Back in his day the likes of Euripides could tear apart a stage and leave the crowd screaming for more. He's decided it's up to him to set things right. The Frogs is a point-and-click adventure game based on the ancient Greek comedy by Aristophanes. It's a hodgepodge of ancient wit, Pythonesque animation, Renaissance artwork, and public domain classical music all wrapped up in a ball of irreverent humor from a mind way too influenced by the likes of Terry Practhett and Jasper Fforde. Still out to sea aboard the Cleisthenes and having just read Andromeda, Dionysus is pumped and ready to get back to his theater in Athens so he can get to work improving the world of the arts for the good of everyone. But we all know it can't be that easy... he has to go through a lot of content to make it worth the asking price.
