Frog Sqwad
Frog Sqwad is what happens when someone looks at the co-op extraction formula and decides the missing ingredient was frogs with prehensile tongues. Panic Stations launched the up-to-8-player chaos platformer on June 11, 2026, and it is aimed squarely at groups who liked yelling at each other in Lethal Company.
Frog Sqwad is an up-to-8-player co-op extraction puzzle-platformer where your tongue is the tool for everything: swinging, grabbing, and flinging teammates. You head into The Sewers as a squad, gather food, and bring back enough to hit the Swamp King's daily quota, which unlocks what comes next. It is a quota-driven co-op loop wrapped in physics comedy.
Most platformers give you a jump. Frog Sqwad gives you a tongue, and builds everything on it. You swing across gaps with it, grab and haul objects with it, and, critically, use it to shove your friends into situations they did not consent to. That last part is the comedy engine. In an 8-frog group, the tongue turns every level into a tangle of competing physics, which is exactly the point.
The structure underneath is an extraction loop. You go into The Sewers, grab what you can, and make it back as a team, "however that ends up looking," as the developer puts it. If you like chaotic co-op with friends, our Pratfall guide covers a similar physics-comedy crowd-pleaser.
The tongue handles swinging, grabbing, and flinging teammates. With a full squad, that is a recipe for cheerful disaster.
The quota system gives the chaos a point. You are not just messing around; you owe the Swamp King a food haul each day, and falling short stalls your progress. That tension between "deliver the goods" and "my friend just tongue-launched me into a pit" is the sweet spot co-op extraction games chase. For more in the genre, our best indie co-op games roundup and the Lost Castle 2 beginner guide point to other group-friendly picks.
The question for any party game is legs. Frog Sqwad's tongue physics and quota loop are a great hook for a first night, but whether there is enough variety in The Sewers and enough escalation in the quota and Megafrog systems to keep a group coming back is what will decide it. Party games live and die on whether you fire it up again next weekend.
What is Frog Sqwad? An up-to-8-player co-op extraction puzzle-platformer from Panic Stations where your tongue does everything and you raid The Sewers for a daily food quota. It launched June 11, 2026.
How many players? Up to 8 in online co-op.
How does the tongue work? You swing, grab objects, and fling teammates with it; all traversal is tongue-based.
What is the goal? Gather food in The Sewers and hit the Swamp King's daily quota to unlock what comes next.
Is it like Lethal Company or Pratfall? Both: a quota-driven extraction loop with chaotic physics comedy, plus the tongue and Megafrog twist.
