Cosmic Frog

THE COSMIC FROGS ARE COMING!

Cosmic Frog is a game of collection, combat, and theft on a planetary scale. Each player controls a two-mile tall, immortal, invulnerable frog-like creature that exists solely to gather terrain from the Shards of Aeth, the fragments of a long-ago shattered world. The First Ones seek to use the lands from the Shards to reconstruct the world of Aeth, and your frogs are their terrain harvesters. Although Cosmic Frog takes place in the Shadows of Malice universe, it is an independent and standalone game.

Cosmic Frog is a 2 - 6 player game of set collection, combat, and theft on a planetary scale. Each player controls a two-mile-tall, immortal, invulnerable frog with a unique ability. You use your frog to collect land tiles from the Shard of Aeth, a fragment of a long-ago shattered world, and store your land tiles in your massive gullet until you can disgorge them into your extradimensional vault. Your final score will be determined by the land tiles in your vault and will depend not only on how many land tiles you manage to deposit, but also on how those tiles are arranged in the vault.

Throughout the game, you are free to keep to yourself and focus on collecting land tiles at your own pace... or you may attack other frogs and try to take land tiles directly from their gullets... or you may attempt to steal land tiles from another player's vault. Frog combat and vault raids are resolved using custom dice. Because cosmic frogs are invulnerable, no frog is ever wounded or killed - just irritated and inconvenienced - so there is no player elimination. Players can control multiple frogs and may play competitively as individuals or in teams.

Whatever your strategy or style, you will find no time to grow complacent: random turn order, random mutations that force frogs to change their abilities, and random meteor strikes that destroy large sections of the playing area will all keep you on your toes. You must be both fast and clever to construct a winning vault before an untimely meteor destroys the Shard of Aeth and suddenly ends the game!
