Amazing Frog? is a hilarious sandbox game where you control a quirky frog character that can barely walk and communicates through farts. Set in the eccentric town of Swindon, this game offers a wild and entertaining experience.
Are you excited about the chaos you can create, or do you have specific plans for your frog? Regardless of what you choose to do, starting off on the right foot with some knowledge can really enhance your gameplay. If you’re eager to jump in, we’ve got some beginner tips just for you.
Get a Jetpack ASAP
One of the smartest moves in Amazing Frog? is to get yourself a jetpack early on. The main benefit is that without it, getting to the tops of buildings or exploring outside of Swindon can feel like a real chore. You’ll find weapons, costumes, and other hidden treasures on rooftops, and there’s so much more to discover beyond the city limits.
Once you snag a jetpack, your mobility will increase dramatically, allowing you to reach tricky spots with ease. There are various types of jetpacks available, but try to aim for the Balloon Jetpack or the Flypack to elevate your fun even further.
Tip: Until you secure a jetpack, keep an eye out for trampolines, fans, or helium canisters to help you get around.
Explore Beyond Swindon
Swindon is lively and packed with activities, but spending all your time there might mean you miss out on some really cool adventures. If you venture outside of Swindon, amazing discoveries await!
For example, you can visit a military base to grab a minigun or even a tank. You could also head up to the cabin on the snowy mountain peak to enter Snow World. Exploring different locations can lead to new costumes and exciting challenges, but be cautious—some areas are home to aggressive characters, so come prepared with the right weapons!
Equip Yourself for Adventure
Although Swindon seems peaceful, dangers lurk outside the city. Heading into battle unarmed is a recipe for disaster. It’s essential to carry a weapon, and you can find an incredibly useful tool called the Gun App on the rooftop near Frozies Swindon Hotel. This will give you access to various weapons right when you need them.
However, remember that having a weapon is only half the battle—you need ammo too! Knowing where to find ammo cabinets is key, and one is conveniently located at Sofa in Hideout. As you progress, you might find the Flamethrower unlockable with your Swindon Citizen Points (SCP), and the great thing about it is that it doesn’t require ammo!
Make Some Money
After a successful day of adventure, you can deposit your hard-earned money at the Bank of Swindon. There, you can check how you can spend your balance on exciting rewards.
While farming money might seem tedious, hunting down certain frogs in Swindon can pay off. These frogs drop more coins when defeated. Wearing the golden crown on top of the Frog Court building is another effective way to make cash—be warned, though! It will attract the attention of the city’s residents, who will try to take it from you. Use a flamethrower to fend them off and collect the loot.
Tip: Bringing a vacuum to your money-making spot can help you quickly gather coins before they vanish.
Use Your SCP Points Wisely
You can unlock really cool items with your SCP points, like the grappling hook and flamethrower. Keep track of your SCP balance at the Frog Court building or via the in-game app; once you’ve unlocked items, they’ll appear in specific places throughout the game.
Cleaning up trash around Swindon with a vacuum is a great way to earn SCP points. Additionally, searching for trophies and putting yourself on the lookout for cats will yield points. However, remember that trash respawns regularly, making it the best method for consistent points.
Spawn Points Are Key
Notably, many crucial locations outside of Swindon have spawn points marked by orange porta-potties. To unlock these for fast travel, you need to step inside at least once. This allows you to revisit spots without a lengthy journey back.
While you can keep your weapons when traveling between Swindon and nearby areas, remember that if you venture into places like Snow World or the Moon, you will face a frog selection screen, and you won’t have your weapons with you.
Transport Creatures to Swindon
Have you ever wondered if you could bring a crocodile or a shark into Swindon? You can! After accumulating 1,500 SCP points, unlock the Grappling Hook. You can use this tool to attach interesting creatures or objects to a vehicle and drag them back into the city.
As another option, after collecting 1,500 SCP points, you can use the City Key from Frog Court to unlock Swindon’s city gate.
Understanding Your Environment
In the Towns Planning Office, you’ll find a 3D model of Swindon and its surroundings. This model can be particularly beneficial early in the game when you haven’t unlocked a jetpack yet, helping you get a lay of the land.
Utilize the camera next to the model for a closer look, and take note that it also points out where to find fly accessories you’ll need for the flypack. There’s a similar model at the base on the Moon to aid in navigation as well.
With these tips, you’re now better prepared to jump into the quirky world of Amazing Frog? Enjoy your froggy adventures!
