Forget Alan Wake — the only mystery-solving game of supernatural occurrences you need is Frog Detective.

Frog Detective is one of the most amusing and amazing trilogy of games out there. And the entire series has come to the console of your choice. This means there’s no need to deny yourself the pleasure of diving into a seedy underbelly of conspiracies, crimes, and missing hats.

Seriously though, this game is such a fantastic breath of fresh air. It accomplishes a rarity among video games, in that it’s actually funny. And you can have a good time playing it alone or with friends watching. The more, the merrier, honestly. Some of the most fun is to be had playing with friends who “do the voices” for the characters you’ll meet. It levels up the experience.

Just trust me. Try it and you’ll see exactly what I mean.

The entire trilogy has been collected into Frog Detective: The Entire Mystery which came to consoles late last week. It’s one of those indie games that the people who love it won’t shut up about, and for good reason.

Especially since this isn’t a sprawling hundred-hour+ RPG. You just need a few hours and an inquisitive mind.

Play as the #2 best investigator as you find clues, question silly suspects, and look at things through your magnifying glass. Some nay-sayers have called the magnifying glass “useless”, but what do they know?

In Case 1, The Haunted Island, a sloth has been haunted for weeks by a mysterious ghost that nobody can seem to track down. Even after hiring a team of ghost scientists, the mystery is no closer to being solved. Luckily for this tropical sloth, and unluckily for this pesky ghost, Frog Detective is here to crack the case! The Haunted Island is the first in this award-winning series, and this bite-sized mystery is what started an international cult obsession with the world of Frog Detective.

In the second mystery, The Case of the Invisible Wizard, we follow the Detective to Warlock Woods, where a celebratory parade for their newest neighbor has been maliciously destroyed. Now the neighbor is nowhere to be seen, and the town is in ruin. Can Frog Detective get to the bottom of things? We sure hope so, otherwise the game would be a bummer.

In the exciting series finale, Corruption at Cowboy County, The Detective and Lobster Cop are tasked to solve the conundrum of a sheriff-less town. But not all is as it seems here, when a surprisingly simple solution to the case reveals a sinister scheme. Maybe crime is real after all…

This final mystery is jam-packed with twists and turns, a true love letter to the Frog Detective fans.

Time to hop to it, Detective.
