Captain Corgi: Planetary Problem Solver is a cozy game coming to Steam in late 2025, crafted by solo developer Jonah Wallerstein from WhaleFood Games. You play as Captain Corgi, a charming anthropomorphic dog sailing a cosmic boat through the Milky Way, hopping from one planet to another to solve problems. It’s got that lovable Frog Detective vibe but with a spacefaring spin.
The game focuses on chill exploration and light puzzles, with no combat, letting you chat with locals and resolve their issues. A demo showcased at The MIX event in 2025, featured a planet inspired by Red Riding Hood, where Corgi helps a wolf and a girl sort out a misunderstanding by baking a pie. Wallerstein, inspired by Frog Detective’s cozy charm and small-team success, wants to bring that same humor and heart to this cosmic adventure.
Captain Corgi’s vibe is a bit simpler than Frog Detective’s slick style, but the world is packed with personality. You’ve got characters like Lionel Neckmane, a nerdy lion, and Corgi’s goofy “bark” button. The quirky dialogue and lovable characters are pure fun, and the story-driven gameplay with quick, easy puzzles is spot-on for anyone looking for a chill, cozy escape, just like Frog Detective’s short, sweet mysteries.
