Young Chinese adults are easing anxiety by raising a vacation-loving frog on their phones. “Travel Frog” is China’s most-downloaded app, despite never having been translated to Chinese. In the game, people simply watch a frog relaxing at home and make sure it has everything it needs the next time it takes a vacation. When the frog goes on holiday, it sends postcards and souvenirs. The mobile game is trending as a form of mental self-care, with #TravelFrog on Weibo accruing over 1.96 billion views and the company behind the game considering creating regional versions for new, international audiences.
