Shop:
You may purchase items from the shop at any time, day or night!
Lock-On Targeting (2 fruit):
This eyeball-installed, auto-targeting HUD helsp you make a glowy-red list of bugs you hate.
Static Cling Tongue (8 fruit):
Rub balloons against your tongue before extending it, and nearby bugs will stick to one another. Science!
Durians (8 fruit):
Upgrade your fruit to Durians! They smell awful, so bugs will take longer to eat them.
Turtle (5 fruit):
Upgrade your lily pad to a turtle friend! You can ride him over to grab fruit off to the side. Who put that fruit there anyway?!
Cybernetic Brain (8 zorkmids):
Anything your regular old frog brain can do, this newfangled cybernetic frog brain can do better.
Uninstall Lock-On Targeting (10 fruit, requires Lock-On Targeting):
The chicks don't dig on cyborgs, and it makes licking bugs less fun anyway. Get the surgeon to uninstall it.
Dragon (10 fruit, requires Turtle):
Upgrade your turtle friend to a dragon friend! He will love his new dragon shape, I swear! That shell is just holding him back.
Warp Drive (25,000 fruit, requires Dragon):
Install a warp drive on your flying dragon. Now he will really take you places!
Work Visa (750 zorkmids, requires Warp Drive):

This well-trained team of marketers ensure that the public has the correct impression of you.
Dance Shoes (10 zorkmids, requires PR Department):
Designed for the professional dancer, these low-rise slip-ons have a two-part rubberized sole, for maximum control.
Voice Modulator (50 zorkmids, requires PR Department):
The constituency is always more impressed by a deep, booming voice. Our surgeons are on call, 24 hours a day, to give it to you at a moment's notice.
Bug Drugs (2,000,000 zorkmids, requires Voice Modulator):
Drugging the water supply will pacify delinquent bugs, keeping them off the streets and out of trouble -- and not coincidentally, staying home and watching bug [CENSORED]
Meteorology Satellites (3,000,000 zorkmids requires Voice Modulator):
A system of satellites to help your meteorologists provide more accurate and precise weather forecasts.
Padlocks (2,000,000 zorkmids requires Voice Modulator):
Adding padlocks to bug [CENSORED] storage warhouses should cut down on shrinkage considerably.
Presidential Swimming Pool (5,000,000 zorkmids, requires Padlocks, Bug Drugs, Meteorology Satellites):
This heated pool provides a familiar wet environment in which the Bug President can relax.
Unlocking this upgrade will result in you exiting the game with a win!
The following is all hidden info that is revealed over time as our frog plays through the game Frog Fractions!
- Upon purchasing a Turtle, their role changes to "Frog on a Turtle"
- Upon purchasing a Dragon, their role changes to "Frog on a Dragon"
- The Frog on a Dragon role unlocks a special ability at night: "Dive Underwater" diving underwater will cause the frog to find like a billion fruit.
- Upon purchasing Warp Drive, their role changes to "Frog in Space!" the following night.
- While in space our Froggy cannot be targeted by the terrestrial players and may only be targeted by other spacefaring entities.
- After a night of flying through space, our Froggy friend gets arrested by the Mars Bug Police. The day will open announcing that the player has been put on trial on Mars. They cannot be voted or targeted while on Mars. Their role changes to "Frog in Bug Mars Court"
- While on Mars for the day they will be asked questions from the trial featured in the courtroom scene in the masterpiece, award winning, game of the decade game: Frog Fractions. The questions and their answers will be broadcasted back to Earth (Posted publicly in the thread).
- They are told that failing the trial will result in immediate, unpreventable death.
- Their answers don't actually matter, it's impossible to fail the trial
- On the night after the trial they will gain the (Bug Mars) Work Visa for free and become "Frog on a Work Visa"
- While on their work visa they may use their long sticky tongue to roleblock someone with a 50% chance of success. This ability is 1-shot.
- If they bought lock-on-targeting that chance is 100%, this is true even if they later removed it because the chicks don't dig cyborgs.
- If they bought static-cling tongue then they may target three players to roleblock rather than one because the two other players get stuck to the tongue because of static electricity. This role is all about scientific accuracy.
- During the night they also have the option to "Explore Underwater" this action may be done alongside their roleblock action.
- In order to explore underwater, they must post the complete and historically accurate history of boxing as featured in the game to the thread, one paragraph at a time. There must be at least 3 posts from other players in between each of their history posts. This requirement is reduced to 1 post in between if one of the in-between posts is quoting the history of boxing. They are also immune to any post restrictions while making these posts.
- While exploring underwater their role is changed to "Frog Underwater"
- If they successfully explore underwater during the day, then they find a damaged spaceship at the bottom of Bug Mars Ocean. This is the hardest part of the game though and I had to look up a guide to do it, so to be fair to our Froggy friend they may invite up to 3 other players to a private night chat with them to help them figure out how to fix the spaceship.
- While fixing the spaceship their role becomes "Frog in a Damaged Spaceship"
- In the chat they may talk about whatever they wish but they must incorporate a number of questions related to spaceship repair into the conversation. If they don't do this then they get stuck and angrily quit the game (they leave the game without their role flipping).
- If they get at least one response to such questions that qualifies as at least semi-helpful, then the spaceship gets repaired and they blast off into space again.
- If they don't get any helpful questions then they get stuck and angrily quit the game (they leave the game without their role flipping).
- This chat lasts until the end of the following day phase.
- After they blast off, their role becomes "Frog in Space... Again!"
- Because the blast-off would occur during the day, they become immune to the day elimination on that day. Good luck catching a frog in a spaceship!
- That night they have a terrible nightmare about being a human with a short puny tongue that's unable to catch bugs. They cry a lot and can't do any actions.
- The next morning they awaken to find out that they have gained the PR Department, Voice Modulator, and Dance Shoes for free. Their role changes to "Frog Running for President of Bug Mars!" They are informed that they are running for president and that they need to impress the voters with their dance moves.
- They must describe in the thread their dance moves at least 5 times during the day. If they don't then they are boo'd out of the election and are vanillaized into just "Frog" with no abilities for the rest of the game. If they succeed then they gain the beloved modifier for the day (Takes 1 extra vote to eliminate them over the counterwagon), and their role becomes "President of Bug Mars (Also a Frog)"
- If they become president they gain the ability to print Zorkmids at night and produce bug [CENSORED] they may send bug [CENSORED] to another player, the other player will be intrigued and roleblocked for the night.
- They may only print up to 10 milllion zorkmids at a time. (So it will take them a second night before they exit the game with a win)
