Lets begin with the begin. When you log-in to FL the first page of the game is: your pad. This page contains lots of links and it is confusing to many new players. On the picture below you can see a screenshot of ‘’your pad’’ . There are 4 red boxes:

Detailed stats:

Here you can check whether your dead or alive. Also your hunger level and amount of stamina left can be found here. All the other stuff like experience, money can also be found here. Instead of money you will se the word kerpels. Kerpels is the currency of Frog-Life.

Vote for FL:

Off course you can vote for FL in particular gaming sites like the TOP-200 list. By doing this you don’t only help the game but also yourself. You can get extra stamina, stat-points, nuggets, simulator battles and kerpels for it. So its wise to vote every day

Access to many areas:

In ‘’your pad’’ are lots of locations:

Closet:

Here you can find your newly bought clothes. You can put them on in this section

Amory:

Here you can equip/un-equip your weaponry.

Garage:

Here you will see an overview of all your cars. From your garage you can drive over to other players garage and perhaps steal them.

Basement:

In your basement you can manage your robots. All your robot-items like wood and steel are stored here. In this location you can build/repair and store your robots.

My forum Posts:

Well this section speaks for itself. Here you can check all your forum posts.

Latest news:

All the news concerning properties, FLCF mails, Battles and transfers can be found in this location.

Flash Zone:

Are you sick and tired of losing battles which you should have won? Well here’s the real deal. No text based battles anymore. Here you can battle other players in flash style.

Now that you know how your pad works it’s time to discover the metropolis.

----Metropolis----

On the picture beneath you can see each section of Frog-world. To master the game and become the very best, it’s wise that you know what each section contains so that one day you might be able to get some extra advantage from that.

As you can see FL has a lot of sections. I have divided the metropolis into 12 sections so that I can explain these things step by step. Off course you can easily jump from section 1 to 12 if you prefer. There isn’t a preferable order, It’s just the best that you know everything of the game.

Check the picture beneath on which section you want some extra information.

As you can see there are 12 different sections. On left side you also see a navigation bar. Note that there are several templates which provide different navigation bars. Most of these bars provide quick links to frequently used locations of the game.

#Section 1: Government

This Section contains 4 different locations:

-Legislature

-Voting Booth

-Crime Busters

-Frog Prison

Legislature:

The political centre of Frog Life. Though it is glamorous and elite, the governors and politicians of FL have opened it to every frog so they can see the vital information of the

game.

Donation Station

Here you can donate to the game. Donating to the game will give you certain advantages to non-donators.

Hall of Information
Here, you can view vital statistics about FL, such as our counts of different genders of frogs and religion preferences..

Hall of Fame
Here, view the best, strongest, richest frogs existing in FL. Enter to admire, of find your ranking among FL's elite.

Game Staff
Though you can't actually touch it, through a guarded glass window you can view the original charter of those who founded Metropolis, and those who continue to make it a safe place today. Only Key Development staff can edit the charter, but you can look at it and visit the offices of the different employees of FL.

Its Understandable that most players want to become staff. But how do you become a staff member? Well here’s the answer:
Most of the time Key Development will not hire staff unless there is an imminent need for it. The best advice is, stay active. If you are an honest, upstanding player with a clean record, you have a chance at becoming staff. Those who beg, whine or even ask to become staff will most likely not be at all considered for appointments to game administration.

Game Radio

Here you can put your favourite music on FL. Listen to you own favourite music to improve the game-play and enjoy FL even more!

Divorce

In the legislature you can file a divorce. Note that you can marry some one after both players are at least 60 days old. Marriage provides players certain advantages.

Voting Booth:

The voting booth gives FL democracy. The bringer of freedom, the savior of oppression. Unfortunately for you, however, Frog Life is not a democracy. It is an aristocracy and you must do as the staff say. Fortunately for your frog, FL's staff are very concerned about what players have to say. (No sarcasm intended.) Visit the voting booth to show your input on latest and most pressing game issues. Remember - every vote counts - your vote could be the one that influences a major programming decision. Please note that although it is alright to try to convince someone to vote a certain way, it is illegal in FL to gather, say, a group of friends and have them all vote on the same topic in order to influence the poll.

Crime Busters:

Have you noticed anything weird lately? Someone has gained 20 levels in 1 day and received lots of money? As soon as you think someone is cheating please make a file with screenshots and some other proof and submit it here. By doing this the Game staff can arrest the cheating player and send him to frog prison.

Frog Prison:

If the Game staff has caught you on cheating or breaking FL’s rules (read the rules section on the log-in page) you will be send to the jail. According to the rules you have broken the FL staff will give you a suitable punishment. It can vary from 1 day jail time to account deletion. So obey the rules of FL.

#Section 2: Shopping

This section contains 5 different locations:

-Artillery Shop

-Kyoto’s Automobiles

-Auction House

-Player Owned Shops

-Cosmos

Artillery Shop:

The Artillery shop is the place to buy sine weaponry for your account. These weapons will enhance your account and can be the difference between losing or winning a battle. The Artillery shop provides over 200 different weapons and armour.

As you can see on the picture above, the artillery shop also provides special Items. There you can buy items necessarily for mining nuggets: pick, rock hammer and the warp tunnel and car invading: saw, chain saw and invisible dynamite.

We will get back on the special items in the topic: The Start. Lets get back to the armour and weaponry.

There is a clear way to see this, the more speed and strength/defence the weapon/armour has the more efficient it is in battle. The statistic you see on a weapon/armour will be added to your frog's statistics.

Therefore, if two people had the exact same weapon and armour, but one player had slightly better character stats, chances are that player would win the battle.

Many players share a common problem with weapons and armour. In order for them to work you must have them equipped! You can equip and un-equip weapons and armour in your pad. Just click on the link "Armoury" to take control over what weapons/armour you want your frog to be using in battles.

Kyoto’s Automobiles

Here you will see the list of your owned cars. You can show your cars, buy mini cars to steal cars or use the old fashion way by driving with your special car to someone’s garage and steal their car with a saw, chainsaw or invisible dynamite.

Auction House

If your tired of your old stuff like: gym membership cards, healing powders, food and all the other items located in your inventory. You can put them up to auction here. Who knows…you might make up a good profit.

Player owned shops

If you have an ambition to become an entrepreneur, well here is your chance. You will have the opportunity to start your own shop in FL. Here you can sell everything which is located in your inventory. If you develop a good strategy and get lots of customers you might become rich very fast.

Cosmos

What better way to personalize your frog than giving it a new set of clothes? By going to Cosmos, the fashion boutique, in Metropolis, you can try on all the different outfits and come out with the one you want!

Accessories
Give your frog a personal touch! Accessorize their look with the Cosmos accessories department! Simply try on and purchase what you want!

#Section 3: Services

This section contains 5 different locations:

-Bank

-Hospital

-Hit man Alley

-Landfill

-Stock Market

Bank

The main point of the FL bank is to safeguard your money. Here you can deposit all your money so that other players cant steal it from your pockets during battles. Its totally free. Off course the Bank offers much more then just a deposit account.

you can perform a variety of banking and investment transactions. Some examples are buying stocks, purchasing bonds and making transactions on your bank account.

Investments
Every frog wants to see their money grow. By buying stocks or bonds, you can earn interest or see your money appreciate, without doing any work.

The Banking' Shack
No one knows what goes on in the small house behind the Metropolis bank. Some say there are investments there, the riskiest type of all...

Hospital

After being killed by a player or taking a death pill, you will need to revive yourself to battle another player. To do so, just go to the hospital. From here you can heal yourself and be brought back to life! HP (hit points) are what determines if you are at full health, hurt, or dead. You can go to the hospital to heal or totally resurrect yourself. When your HP is 0, you are dead, if it is full you are at maximum health, and if it is partially full than you are hurt. You will have to pay a certain amount of kerpels for the hospital's service. The hospital finds out how much you have to pay by multiplying the amount of hit points you need restored to be at full health by five. Unless you have a legion that covers some or all of this cost, you will have to pay this or remain dead until the next reset. Every reset all the players get revived to full health (full HP).

Death Pills
If you want to kill yourself so that your money is protected or some other weird reason without adding another loss to your stats, use a death pill. It will kill you instantly!

Hit man Alley

This is your information source. Got an enemy you can't take down? Hire an assassin and he'll take them down for you. Have a need to know another player's stats? Pay the fee and you can get the latest on any frog.

After entering the alley, select your preferred option and enter the ID of the victim. Follow the straightforward instructions and your task will be complete! All services at the Hit Man Alley cost 3000 kerpels.

Landfill

The landfill is the ultimate in item circulation. By dropping an item in the landfill, you can hope that maybe someone will pick it up and you will recieve bonus money. The landfill helps to give free items to poorer frogs, while circulating money to richer frogs. Using the landfill will do your bit for poor frogs...and could reap you a fortune!

So how do you dump an item into the landfill? Simply dump your items into the landfill by clicking "dump" beside an item on the "Inventory" page.

Your item will be dropped into the landfill, and you could receive anywhere between 0 and 1000 bonus kerpels.

Also, you can pick up any item sitting in the landfill by entering and snatching it. Try to get what you can, because every ay the landfill is cleared to make room for more items by the sanitation company. You can dump 2 items a day and snatch 1 item. Have fun!

Stock Market

The stock market is basically legalized gambling. Based on how much in demand a stock is, players can make or lose amazing amounts of money.

Buying stock is easy. Simply go and look at the current market and choose the stock you wish to purchase. The price will be outlined clearly. Type in the amount of shares you wish to buy and click "Buy".

Either by visiting the stock or viewing the holding summary on your brokerage page, you can see your profit or loss and other useful information. By either clicking trade or clicking on the name of the stock while viewing the current market, you will get to the page that explains the stock. There you can sell your shares by typing in the amount you wish to sell and clicking Sell. The amount will immediately be credited to your kerpels on hand. So don’t forget to bank them!

By owning a stock, you legally have the right to know who else owns it. Simply go to the stock that you own and click View All Shareholders to see a summary of shareholders and their holdings in the corporation. If you own 0%, that means that you do not own a big enough share of the company to be a majority shareholder. Shareholders with 1% or more are majority shareholders and help to control the company.

On the home page you can view a summary of your current holding position and your overall profit or loss. This is useful when making decisions about what to do with your money.

#Section 4: Properties

This section contains 3 different locations:

-Your Base

-Explore

-Property Warehouse

Properties are a huge and important part of the game. So it is wise to read this explanation first:

Get into the exciting game of real estate! Possibly Frog Life's most profitable and risky investment. In order to begin using properties, you need a membership card in the place where you want to build. Afterward, you need to begin building. Currently players can own a maximum of two properties (three if they are a donator), so defend them well - destruction is easy and taxes are high, so the players with low cash reserves in the bank will suffer.

Properties in FL are a competitive game - not for the weak. Frequent invasions and losses of money come, so it isn't a place to pour your life savings into. It comes down to the richest, most powerful, most ruthless frog, and they will be the only one to ultimately succeed. Buy a property, try your best - and beware. ALSO note that players under 100 days old get two weeks protection on any new property they get from natural disasters (events which hurt durability), Max Powers (plague release on employees), and player attacks. Players 100 days old and over, will receive one week of protection.

Property Protection
Properties that are no more than 2 weeks old and are owned by players who are less than 100 days old will be protected from natural disasters, Max Powers, and player attacks.

Properties that are no more than one week old and are owned by players who are 100 days old or more will also be protected from natural disasters, Max Powers, and player attacks.

Property Freezing
All third properties owned by ex-donators will be frozen. The property that freezes is random and it cannot be unfrozen until you donate again. Frozen properties are protected from Max Powers, natural disasters, and player attacks. However, frozen properties will not collect an income and also will not be manageable until you donate again.
