You play as the Prince of Sable. Princess Tiramisu has been kidnapped, Prince of Sable and his friend Prince Richard go to save her. A witch turns them into frogs, which complicates things. This game has the same engine as Link’s Awakening. A funny and unusual game.

This is an unofficial English translation in the .ips format.

Kaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru, or For the Frog the Bell Tolls has you take on the role of the impetuous but good-natured Prince of Sable. As the Prince, you must save Princess Tiramisu and the desert and frog themed land of Mille-Feuille from the evil Lord Delarin…and do before your rival, the valiant Prince Richard, beats you to it.

Gameplay is a mix of platforming action and simple RPG elements. The engine for this game went on to be used for Link’s Awakening, and many plot elements were borrowed for later Zelda games.
