When it comes to natural habitats, wetlands may not be the first thing you picture. Kamaeru: A Frog Refuge puts them front and centre with some of the cutest frogs around. As you learn the basics of wetland restoration, you create a new habitat for frogs and boost their diversity. As shown by 2024’s Wholesome Direct, it’s never been easier to learn about the importance of wetlands in our environment.

If you fancy a bit of cozy escapism, Kamaeru: A Frog Refuge provides just that. With adorable graphics, casual gameplay and a goal to work towards, it is the perfect game to play while you drink a cup of tea, listen to some relaxing music, and rest. That said, I found myself tiring of Kamaru’s simplicity after a few hours in the game. New tasks, people and places are introduced sporadically in an attempt to keep you entertained, however they are all just similar enough to fall flat and instead reminded me of just how similar they are to previous additions.
