Eat The Frog.

Have you ever heard of the "eat the frog" saying? It's a bit of productivity advice, meant to advise you to tackle the toughest tasks of your work head-on.

But what if you took that seemingly-innocuous bit of advice, exaggerated it, twisted it and wrote a short story about it?

Yeah. That's the gist.

The game has 4 endings, depending on how long you stall for.
