Frog Corral: a small gathering by the water
Frog Corral gives a small rescue task a playful shape: gather the frogs and help them return to water. Clicking and dragging moves the idea forward, but the pleasure lies in treating a group as a single possibility.

Think about the group
The creator describes bringing frogs together to find their way, including the ability for them to stack. That makes gathering part of the puzzle language. Look at the relationships between the frogs and the route, instead of assuming every creature needs a separate journey.
A concise collection of situations
The listed game contains ten levels and introduces gates, snails and other small surprises. A bounded set of situations can be a welcome alternative to an endless progress loop. Each new arrangement offers a reason to reconsider what the same simple dragging action can achieve.
Gentle presentation, attentive play
The pond-side premise suggests an unhurried sort of attention. That does not mean solving itself is automatic: moving a group asks you to notice how it fits through the space. The linked release is built around mouse input, making a desktop a clear starting point.
