Panic launches first two Playdate season 3 games in $39 bundle
Soggy Froggy and Gloom Gate are the first of eight games in Playdate season 3, with two arriving weekly over four weeks.
Panic has released the first two games in Playdate season 3, Soggy Froggy and Gloom Gate, as part of an eight-game bundle priced at $39, according to theverge.com.
Soggy Froggy is an arcade game about keeping a frog's bath water at the right temperature by turning the crank to cool it down. Gloom Gate is a dungeon-crawling RPG with 3D graphics, stamina-based combat featuring dodging, parrying and attacking, and campfires to rest at.
The two titles arrive together, and the remaining six games will be released in pairs over four weeks.
The full season 3 lineup has not been revealed. Panic has said it will also include a word game, a same-handheld two-player hide-and-seek game, and a classic Mac-style point-and-click adventure.
