- The Collector's Update - 18 August 2026
The Collector's Update is here!Every frog in the pond is now a distinct thing worth collecting - it has a real breed name, a grade, and a page in a book you fill in as you play. Here is everything that changed. 🐸 Frogs & eggsThe frog roster grew to 41 frogs — new robots, jungle dwellers, spotted, origami, black and huge variants. 41 real breed names replace the old placeholders. There are proper frog riffs in there: Bullfrog for the spotted family, Dart Frog for the jungle, Horned Frog for the spiked, Tomato Frog, and a stone one simply called Grump. Colours mark the variants — Blue Bullfrog, Golden Dart Frog — and sizes take Little, Giant or Grand. The hatch reveal card. Cracking an egg is an event now. The moment it opens you get the frog's portrait, its name, its grade written as a word in the grade's own colour — grey, blue, purple, gold — and exactly what it will earn you per minu…
