Free-to-play cosy life sim Palia has hit Steam, with a Spring-themed patch and a giant frog plush

There is also a giant plushi frog, listed under ‘Adjustments’. The patch notes say simply “What does he want? Does he come in peace?” you might engage in a questline to get a mini plushie version of it for your plot. Previous temples were themed around the other elements (water, etc. ), while the Temple Of Roots is apparently the plant themed one. Or, like, mud.
