Frog's journey goes viral for city's young people 旅行青蛙手游风靡城市生活的年轻群体 1. A few weeks after its release, a Japanese mobile game featuring a traveling frog has become a hit in China. The state-run Xinhua news agency reported on Tuesday that Travel Frog had risen to the top of the free simulation game category in Apple’s App Store in China. 一款以旅行青蛙为主角的日本手游在发行几周内就在中国大受欢迎。 中国国家通讯社新华社周二报道说，“旅行青蛙”已经攀升至苹果应用商店中国区免费模拟游戏类别的榜首。 2. In the game, players harvest clover as currency to buy props and make a backpack for the frog before he goes on the journey. The frog will send postcards and bring back souvenirs. 在这款游戏中，玩家以收获三叶草来作为货币购买道具，并在青蛙出发旅行前为它收拾好行李。青蛙在旅行时会寄明信片并带回纪念品。 3. Players of Travel Frog can just leave the game and log back in periodically to check whether the frog is at home or out for a trip. Perhaps that is why this game has caught on with those who seek a sense of tranquility to balance the fast-paced lives. Some see the game as a way of relieving loneliness, in particular those who live on their own. The game also has a strong connection to child rearing. In Chinese, the word for “frog,” wa, is a homophone for a word for “baby.” “旅行青蛙”的玩家可以退出游戏，只要定期重新登录，来看看自己的青蛙是在家还是在外面旅行。也许这就是为什么这个游戏深受那些追求宁静感，以此平衡快节奏生活的人的欢迎。 有些人，尤其是那些独自生活的人，把游戏看作减轻孤独感的方式。 而且，这款游戏与养育孩子也有很强的关系。 在汉语里，“蛙”这个词与“娃”这个词同音。
