The Forge Rune Guide (January 2026) All Combos & Find Tips
If you’re diving into The Forge and wondering how to unlock the game’s true potential, I’ve got you covered. Runes…
If you’ve stumbled upon My Frog Pond in Roblox and wondered how to master this adorable frog-raising simulator, you’re in the right place. I’ve spent countless hours building my dream pond, collecting rare mutations, and maxing out my Ribbles, and I’m here to share everything I’ve learned. This guide will take you from your first tadpole purchase to becoming the ultimate frog caretaker with a pond that’ll make everyone jealous.
My Frog Pond is a charming Roblox simulator game developed by Catqube that launched in July 2026. Think of it as a relaxing idle game where you raise adorable frogs, sell them for currency called Ribbles, and decorate your pond to create the ultimate amphibian paradise. The game features towering mushrooms, swimmable rivers, and a cozy aesthetic that makes it one of the most visually appealing simulator games on Roblox right now.
What makes My Frog Pond special is its passive income system. Your frogs continue growing and breeding even when you’re offline, making it perfect for players who want steady progress without constant grinding. Plus, with special weather events, rare mutations, and decorations that provide actual gameplay buffs, there’s surprising depth beneath the cute exterior.
| Core Gameplay Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Primary Currency | Ribbles (earned by selling frogs) |
| Premium Currency | Hexadrops (obtained through codes and events) |
| Main Goal | Raise frogs, collect mutations, expand your pond |
| Passive Income | Yes – frogs grow and breed offline |
| Multiplayer | Play with friends for bonuses |
| Weather Events | 7 different weather types that boost selling prices |
When you first spawn into My Frog Pond, you’ll find yourself on a central island surrounded by water. Here’s exactly what you need to do in your first five minutes:
You begin with a small amount of Ribbles (around 500-1,000 depending on any starter bonuses). This is just enough to purchase your first tadpole and begin your frog empire.
Look for the shop area on the central island. This is where you’ll purchase tadpoles using your Ribbles. The shop interface is straightforward – you’ll see different tadpole types with their costs clearly displayed.
Start with the basic tadpole, which costs around 500 Ribbles. Don’t overthink your first purchase – you’ll be upgrading quickly as you earn more currency. The basic tadpole takes approximately 2-3 minutes to fully grow into a sellable frog.
After purchasing, you’ll need to place your tadpole in one of the pond areas. Simply click on the water surface where you want to place it. The tadpole will automatically begin growing – you’ll see a progress bar indicating how much time remains until it becomes an adult frog.
Once your frog is fully grown, click on it to collect. You’ll then have the option to sell it for Ribbles. Your first frog will earn you around 800-1,200 Ribbles, giving you profit to reinvest in more tadpoles.
My Frog Pond follows a simple but addictive progression cycle:
This cycle creates a satisfying idle experience where you’re constantly scaling up your operation. The key is understanding which upgrades give you the best return on investment.
My Frog Pond features multiple tiers of tadpoles, each with increasing costs and profits:
| Tier | Approximate Cost | Base Selling Price | Growth Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | 500 Ribbles | 800-1,200 Ribbles | 2-3 minutes |
| Common | 2,500 Ribbles | 4,000-6,000 Ribbles | 3-4 minutes |
| Uncommon | 10,000 Ribbles | 18,000-22,000 Ribbles | 4-5 minutes |
| Rare | 50,000 Ribbles | 90,000-110,000 Ribbles | 5-6 minutes |
| Epic | 250,000 Ribbles | 450,000-550,000 Ribbles | 6-7 minutes |
| Legendary | 1,000,000+ Ribbles | 2,000,000+ Ribbles | 7-8 minutes |
The profit margins remain relatively consistent across tiers (about 80-120% profit per frog), so the main benefit of higher-tier tadpoles is earning more Ribbles per transaction, not necessarily better profit percentages.
Beyond regular tadpoles, My Frog Pond features exclusive event tadpoles that you can only obtain through codes or limited-time events:
Candy Corn Tadpoles – Halloween-themed exclusive obtained from codes like BLOOMY and HEXABELLE. These grow into frogs with unique orange and yellow coloring.
Candy Apple Tadpoles – Another spooky season exclusive from the WITCHBREW2025 code, featuring a glossy red appearance when fully grown.
Seasonal Tadpoles – Watch for holiday events (Christmas, Easter, Summer) that bring time-limited tadpoles with special visual effects.
Event tadpoles are valuable for collectors but don’t necessarily sell for more Ribbles than their regular counterparts. Their main appeal is aesthetic rarity and the bragging rights that come with owning exclusive frogs.
One of My Frog Pond’s most interesting features is its breeding mechanic, which isn’t immediately obvious to new players:
Female frogs appear in the shop less frequently than males, so grab them whenever you see them. If one of your frogs has a rare mutation, breeding it ensures the offspring inherits that valuable trait, effectively doubling your mutated frog collection without the luck factor.
Breeding happens automatically while you’re offline, making it an excellent passive income strategy once you’ve established your initial frog population.
Mutations are where My Frog Pond gets really exciting. These special variants multiply your frog’s base selling price, turning a standard frog worth 10,000 Ribbles into a jackpot worth 50,000 Ribbles or more.
Here are all six mutations currently in the game, ranked by rarity and value multiplier:
Dewskin (1.5x multiplier) – Most common mutation. Gives your frog a subtle shimmer effect and pale green coloring. Not a huge profit boost, but better than nothing.
Fogbound (2x multiplier) – Moderate rarity. Your frog appears with a misty aura surrounding it. This is where mutations start feeling genuinely rewarding.
Shroomveil (2.5x multiplier) – Less common. The frog develops small mushroom growths on its back, fitting the game’s forest aesthetic perfectly.
Frostbitten (3x multiplier) – Rare mutation. The frog takes on an icy blue appearance with frost particles. Triple profit on any frog makes this highly sought after.
Solgleam (4x multiplier) – Very rare. Your frog radiates golden light and sparkles brilliantly. Selling these feels like hitting a mini-lottery every time.
Fall (4x multiplier) – Very rare seasonal mutation. The frog is covered in autumn leaves with warm orange and red tones.
Astraborn (5x multiplier) – The legendary mutation. Your frog looks like it’s made of stars and galaxies, with a cosmic purple appearance. This is the ultimate mutation every player dreams of getting. A 1,000,000 Ribble frog becomes worth 5,000,000 Ribbles with this mutation.
Mutations occur randomly when frogs finish growing, but you can dramatically improve your odds:
Equip Mutation-Boosting Gears – Certain gear items specifically increase mutation probability. These are absolutely worth investing in once you’re consistently buying mid-to-high-tier tadpoles.
Be Online When Frogs Mature – This is crucial and often overlooked. Mutations ONLY happen when you’re actively in the game. If your frogs mature while you’re offline, they cannot get mutations. Set timers or check the game periodically to maximize mutation chances.
Use Weather Bonuses – Certain weather conditions increase mutation rates. Pay attention to weather notifications and place new tadpoles during favorable conditions.
Higher Tier = Better Odds – More expensive tadpoles seem to have slightly higher base mutation chances, though this isn’t officially confirmed by the developers.
If you’re serious about hunting rare mutations, follow this proven method I’ve refined over weeks of gameplay:
This batch approach significantly increases your chances of landing at least one good mutation per session, and once you get one, breeding it creates a passive mutation farm.
Weather events are one of My Frog Pond’s most dynamic features, occurring every few hours and lasting 10-15 minutes. Each weather type provides different bonuses that savvy players can exploit for maximum profit.
Rainfall – Increases frog growth speed by 10-15%. Perfect for quick turnover when you’re actively playing. Try to have empty pond space when rainfall hits so you can place new tadpoles and benefit from the accelerated growth.
Lumenfog – Boosts selling prices by 20-25%. This is the money-maker weather. If you have high-value frogs ready to sell, wait for Lumenfog before collecting them. The profit difference is substantial on expensive frogs.
Sporemist – Slightly increases mutation chances (estimated 5-10% boost). Active players should place new tadpoles during Sporemist to maximize mutation opportunities.
Icehowl – Freezes frog growth temporarily but grants massive mutation chance increase (estimated 25-35%). Controversial weather – it slows your operation but offers the best mutation odds in the game.
Fall – Seasonal weather that increases both growth speed AND selling prices by moderate amounts (10-15% each). All-around beneficial.
Embershine – Provides major selling price boost (30-40%) but only for frogs with fire-related mutations or specific colors. Situational but powerful if you have the right frogs.
Cosmic Bloom – The rarest regular weather event. Massively boosts mutation chances specifically for the Astraborn mutation. If you’re hunting for that 5x multiplier, Cosmic Bloom is your best friend.
Witchgloam (Exclusive Event Weather) – Only appears during Halloween events. Provides bonuses to event-specific tadpoles and decorations.
One of the smartest things you can do is join the official Catqube Discord server (discord.com/invite/t5UTNKEMPW). The server has a notification system that pings you when specific weather events start. You can customize which weather types you want to be notified about.
I personally have notifications enabled for Lumenfog (for maximum selling), Cosmic Bloom (mutation hunting), and Icehowl (when I’m actively mutation farming). This ensures I never miss the high-value weather conditions.
Unlike many Roblox simulator games where decorations are purely cosmetic, My Frog Pond’s decorations actually provide meaningful gameplay buffs. This makes decorating your pond both fun AND strategically important.
Growth Speed Decorations – Items like lily pads, lotus flowers, and reed patches reduce the time it takes for tadpoles to mature. These are essential for active players who want rapid turnover.
Mutation Boost Decorations – Mushrooms, magical stones, and ethereal plants increase mutation probability for nearby frogs. Place these strategically around high-traffic areas where you spawn your most expensive tadpoles.
Selling Price Decorations – Treasure chests, golden statues, and special plants increase the Ribbles you earn when selling frogs. The effect is usually 5-10% per decoration within range.
Aesthetic Decorations – Some items are purely cosmetic with no buffs. These include most event-themed decorations, signs, and background elements. Still worth having if you care about your pond’s appearance.
Combination Decorations – The rarest and most expensive items provide multiple buffs simultaneously. For example, the Enchanted Fountain might boost both growth speed AND mutation chances within its radius.
After testing dozens of layouts, here’s what I’ve found works best:
Central Hub Design:
Zone-Based Layout:
Aesthetic-Functional Balance:
Remember that decoration effects have a limited range (usually indicated by a subtle visual radius). Frogs need to be within this range to receive the buff, so dense strategic placement beats random scattering.
Gears are equipped items that provide permanent bonuses to your entire pond operation. Unlike decorations which affect specific areas, gears give global buffs.
Basic Growth Gear – Usually your first gear purchase. Provides a flat 10-15% growth speed increase to ALL frogs in your pond. Costs around 50,000 Ribbles.
Starter Mutation Gear – Increases base mutation chance by 5%. Essential for anyone serious about mutation hunting. Expect to pay 100,000-150,000 Ribbles.
Ribble Booster – Increases selling prices by 10-15%. Great return on investment once you’re consistently selling Epic or Legendary frogs.
Premium Mutation Enhancer – Doubles or triples the effect of mutation-boosting decorations. Expensive (500,000+ Ribbles) but transforms your pond into a mutation factory.
Offline Efficiency Gear – Increases the rate at which frogs grow and breed while you’re offline. Absolute necessity for passive players who check the game once or twice daily.
Weather Duration Extender – Makes beneficial weather events last 50-100% longer. Game-changing for players who actively play during weather events.
Breeding Accelerator – Reduces the cooldown between breeding cycles. Essential for players running breeding operations to farm mutated frogs.
You can’t afford every gear immediately, so here’s the optimal purchase order I recommend:
Codes are absolutely essential for speeding up your early game progression. They provide free Ribbles, Hexadrops, and exclusive tadpoles that would otherwise take hours to earn.
| Code | Rewards | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| MERRYFROGMAS | 50 Hexadrops | NEW – Christmas event code |
| SANTAFWOG | 100,000 Ribbles | NEW – Holiday celebration |
| UPDATE4 | 50 Hexadrops | NEW – Major update reward |
| FROGGYHOLIDAY | 200,000 Ribbles | NEW – Festive bonus |
| HOMESWEETPOND | 100,000 Ribbles | Still working |
| PONDMAKEOVER | 50 Hexadrops | Still working |
| LILYLOVE | 200,000 Ribbles | Still working |
| BLOOMY | 2 Candy Corn Tadpoles | Exclusive event tadpoles |
| SRYFORDELAY | 10,000 Ribbles | Apology code from developers |
| 20KLIKES | 120,000 Ribbles | Community milestone reward |
| HAPPY1MIL | 200,000 Ribbles | 1 million visits celebration |
| WITCHBREW2025 | 50 Hexadrops + 1 Candy Apple Tadpole | Halloween event exclusive |
| HEXABELLE | 2 Candy Corn Tadpoles | Halloween exclusive |
The code redemption system in My Frog Pond is slightly hidden but easy once you know where to look:
Pro tip: Always copy and paste codes directly from this guide to avoid typos. Codes are case-sensitive and must be entered exactly as shown.
Stay ahead of other players by following these official sources:
Codes typically release during game updates, community milestones (likes/favorites), holidays, apologies for server issues, and special events. My Frog Pond averages 2-4 new codes per month.
The most common mistake new players make is buying tadpoles one at a time and immediately selling each frog. Here’s how to maximize your Ribble income:
Batch Purchasing Strategy:
This approach yields 30-40% more profit than the one-at-a-time method because you’re batching the weather bonuses.
Reinvestment Formula: Always reinvest 80% of your profits back into more tadpoles. Keep 20% as savings for gear purchases. This 80/20 split provides the perfect balance between growth and progress toward permanent upgrades.
Tier Progression Timeline:
Don’t rush to higher tiers too quickly. You need sufficient capital reserves to buy multiple expensive tadpoles at once for the batch strategy to work.
If your primary goal is collecting all mutations, follow this specialized approach:
Setup Phase:
Execution Phase:
Breeding Phase:
This focused approach can help you collect all mutations within 1-2 weeks of dedicated play, compared to months of casual playing.
For players who can only check the game once or twice daily:
Morning Routine (5 minutes):
Evening Routine (5 minutes):
Weekend Deep Dive (30-60 minutes):
This routine ensures steady progression without requiring you to stay glued to your screen. The offline growth and breeding mechanics do most of the work while you’re away.
Playing with friends provides actual gameplay benefits, not just social enjoyment:
Friend Proximity Bonus: When multiple players are in the same server and close to each other, all frogs in the area receive a 5-10% growth speed boost.
Cooperative Weather: Weather benefits are amplified by 10-20% when 3+ players are in the same pond area during a weather event.
Trading Opportunities: While My Frog Pond doesn’t have a formal trading system (yet), playing with friends lets you coordinate breeding pairs and share mutation strategies.
Decoration Sharing: Some high-end decorations provide buff auras that extend to nearby players’ ponds, not just your own.
Mistake #1: Selling Mutated Frogs Immediately Never sell a frog with a rare mutation (Frostbitten or above) without first trying to breed it. The long-term value of producing mutated offspring far exceeds the one-time selling price.
Mistake #2: Ignoring Decorations Many players dismiss decorations as cosmetic only. This is leaving massive profit on the table. A properly decorated pond with strategic buff placement can double your effective Ribbles per hour.
Mistake #3: Buying Gears Randomly Follow the prioritization order I outlined earlier. Buying a Weather Duration Extender before you have Basic Growth Gear is a terrible use of resources.
Mistake #4: Not Using Codes I can’t stress this enough – codes provide hundreds of thousands of Ribbles and exclusive tadpoles completely free. Check this guide every week and redeem every code immediately.
Mistake #5: Staying Offline During Mutations Remember: mutations ONLY happen when you’re online. If you’re serious about collecting mutations, you need to be present when frogs mature. Set timers or notifications to check back.
Mistake #6: Spreading Tadpoles Randomly New players often place tadpoles all over the pond. Instead, create concentrated zones where multiple frogs benefit from the same decoration buffs. Efficient spacing multiplies your decoration investment.
Mistake #7: Spending Hexadrops Carelessly Hexadrops are premium currency that’s difficult to obtain. Save them for permanent upgrades (gears) rather than consumable boosts or decorations you could buy with Ribbles.
My Frog Pond runs limited-time events during major holidays and game updates:
Halloween Event – Usually features exclusive spooky-themed tadpoles, decorations, and the special Witchgloam weather. Past events included Candy Corn and Candy Apple tadpoles.
Christmas Event – The current January 2026 event features holiday decorations, winter-themed frogs, and codes with candy cane currency. Look for codes like MERRYFROGMAS and SANTAFWOG.
Easter Event – Expected spring 2026 event likely to feature egg-themed decorations and pastel-colored tadpoles.
Summer Event – Typically includes tropical frogs, beach decorations, and sunshine-themed weather effects.
Anniversary Events – Game milestone celebrations with massive Ribble giveaways and commemorative decorations.
Always participate in events even if you’re a casual player. Event items are often never available again, and many provide permanent buffs or become valuable collector’s items as the game matures.
Yes! My Frog Pond is fully playable on mobile devices (iOS and Android) through the Roblox app. The touch controls are well-optimized, though placing decorations precisely is slightly easier on PC. All features function identically across platforms.
Absolutely yes! This is one of My Frog Pond’s best features. Frogs continue growing and breeding even when you’re not playing. However, remember that mutations ONLY happen when you’re online, so you’ll need to log in before your frogs finish maturing if you want mutation chances.
Female frogs aren’t technically “rarer” than males – they simply have a separate shop category and limited quantities refresh periodically (usually every 30 minutes to 1 hour). The shop might show “Out of Stock” for females more often simply because fewer spawn per restock cycle.
For active players: Buy the highest-tier tadpoles you can afford, place 10-20 at once during favorable weather, stay online to maximize mutation chances, and sell during Lumenfog weather events.
For passive players: Fill your entire pond with mid-tier tadpoles (Rare or Epic) before logging off, equip Offline Efficiency gear, and check back 8-12 hours later to collect and sell everything.
Each code can be redeemed once per Roblox account. Once you’ve used a code and received the rewards, you cannot use that same code again on that account. Additionally, codes expire after a certain period (usually 2-8 weeks), so always redeem new codes immediately.
No! My Frog Pond has no mechanics that cause you to lose frogs, Ribbles, or progress. There’s no “death” system or decay. Your progress is permanently saved to your Roblox account. The only way to “lose” progress is by selling frogs (which gives you Ribbles in return) or voluntary actions.
When all your pond spaces are occupied by growing tadpoles or mature frogs, you simply can’t place any new tadpoles. Collect and sell your mature frogs to free up space. You can expand your pond capacity by purchasing pond expansion items from the shop (costs Hexadrops or large amounts of Ribbles).
The developers confirmed a Wiki is in development, but as of January 2026, it’s not yet released since the game is still in early stages. For now, community guides (like this one) and the official Discord server are your best resources.
Yes! When you breed a mutated frog with another frog, the offspring has a high chance (approximately 80-90%) of inheriting that mutation. This is why experienced players never sell their first of each mutation type – they breed it instead to create a self-sustaining mutation farm.
Ribbles are the standard currency earned by selling frogs. You’ll earn millions of Ribbles through normal gameplay. Hexadrops are premium currency that’s much harder to obtain – primarily through codes, events, and occasionally rare frog sales. Hexadrops buy exclusive items that can’t be purchased with Ribbles.
As of January 2026, there is no official trading system in My Frog Pond. The developers have hinted at adding trading in future updates, but currently, all frogs, tadpoles, and decorations are locked to your account. The only social features are the friend bonuses when playing together.
Join the official Catqube Discord (discord.com/invite/t5UTNKEMPW) for weather notifications, code announcements, and community discussions. You can also follow @Catqube_RBLX on X/Twitter and join the Catqube Roblox group for official updates.
My Frog Pond combines the relaxing aesthetics of a virtual pet game with the satisfying progression systems of an idle simulator. What starts as simple tadpole-raising quickly evolves into strategic resource management, mutation hunting, and optimization gameplay that can keep you engaged for months.
The beauty of My Frog Pond is that it respects your time. Whether you’re an active player who wants to maximize every weather event or a casual player who checks in once daily, the game provides meaningful progress. The offline growth and breeding systems ensure you’re never completely falling behind, while the mutation hunting and decoration optimization give hardcore players plenty of depth to master.
My biggest piece of advice: join the Discord, redeem all codes immediately, and don’t sleep on the breeding system. Those three things alone will put you ahead of 90% of players.
Now get out there and build the most impressive frog pond in all of Roblox! And remember to check back to this guide regularly for updated codes, new strategies as the game evolves, and advanced tips as the meta develops.
Happy frog raising, and may your mutations be legendary!
