    I think so, and it is going to be FREE and Universal but all will be told on Wednesday if Nimblebit decides to keep their promises to us. Another thing that has mystery surrounding it is the fact that it has IAP but the game can be completed with some time for FREE basically Nimblebit goes with the odd motto Time = Money. Two things we can be sure of is that the game is not meant to be played between two devices (ie iPhone and iPad) but rather it syncs in intervals as a back up measure only, this has been rumored to be done using Plus+ network and there are some Ads in the menus but this will NOT show up during frog game play.

    Other wise just the people that got the promo codes are invited and we have to sit this out. Some of us aren't welcomed to Nimblebit's Secret Club, didn't you see the sign on the front door :D

    Is that timeframe based on your level? Any word on a cap?

    Oh thank you, I will. Not to sound dense but I take it Plus+ is part of the app? ^^;

    So looking forward to this game! The little froggies look so cute!

    That last bit is totally incorrect. My bet is that they wanted to start a little hype over the game before release, so they gave a small amount of people codes. What's 2 days more to wait?

    You CAN complete everything without buying from the pro shop. None of us have yet, and I'm level 6, pretty sure there's higher than that by now. There are absolutely no ads ingame from what I can see besides a nimblebit logo in the menu.

    Omg, this is the cutest thing ever!

    The more rare the frogs, the slower growing they are and the more valuable when grown. Some of the highest rarity frogs are worth well over 3,000 coins a piece.

    Well, your level determines what types of frogs are available to you and also the rarity of the species. Then the rarity determines the timeframe. It's all pretty much linked together.

    Plus+ isn't needed, but it's used to backup your data so you can have the data on another device and also to add friends (so you can send frogs to each other).

    This is a quite common species among frog keepers (this is an australian White's Tree Frog). REAL frog keepers that is.

    Cute yes, but not enough for a promo code. snifff :(

    I'm sure that this game will have a good reputation among real frog keepers (poison dart frogs). I already have sent message to frog keepers newsboard in France (yes, France, but we do not ALWAYS eat frogs, we raise them also).

    Regards,

    CROC

    Played the game a few times, I love it. Just wondered if I could get some tips and ideas of what I'm supposed to do to get the best out of the game.

    Cheers frog enthusiasts!

    I think the smartest way to play is to start cataloging each unique color you come across, and keep one of each unique pattern in your habitats. Then just start on the awards and search the pond or asked to be gifted anything you can't seem to find!

    Do you have a list of all the primary/secondary colors? That'd be extremely helpful :D

    Then it wouldn't be any fun discovering a new color! :D I'm sure people will end up making lists though.

    Thank you. 9 hours isn't too bad. Can potions and stamps be sent to others? I fear my wife stealing mine while I sleep.
