Reviews for Frogger (#1888)

Review by kphair on 14 Sep 2011 (Rating: 1)

Yes another Frogger clone and poorly executed.

Looks promising to start off with. The graphics are colourful but we have the addition of an electrified maze between the road and the river and very finicky movement. It also seems like the road has also gained parking lanes at each side as well.

While it looks OK, the gameplay is just not up to scratch at all. The movement of the frog relative to the hazards is off just enough to make accidents frustrating rather than acceptable. It's very difficult to maintain any kind of enthusiasm when playing this especially with the touchy controls.

There are much better variants of Frogger than this and it's probably not worth bothering with unless you've tried them all.

Another 'Frogger' clone with the same features as dozens of others. Well, to be honest this kind of looks a bit different. The yellow path, for instance, is not common to most other clones. Overall, not a bad version, but not the best either.

A Frogger clone, with a couple of extra touches such as parked cars on the road and a maze in the central section, neither of which really adds much to the game.

The keys are slightly over-responsive, meaning that it's frustratingly easy to die even when you're being particularly careful. You can even die by moving into one of your other froggy lives at the bottom of the screen.

The repetitive high pitched beepy sound is a bit grating.

Not the worst Frogger attempt, but with a couple of small gameplay tweaks this could have been a lot better.
