“I am Lonely”-The Solitary Frog’s Lament is a biology game where players learn enough about the eleven frogs and toads native to Wisconsin to identify them and their respective habitats.  Each frog in the piece has an “I am lonely” song and animation that communicates the distinctive features of the frog’s voice, markings and habitat.  Players must match their assigned frog with a mate.  The narratives about each frog incorporate elements of humor, romance and sexual innuendo which stimulate players to want to help them.

Game Overview
