A Frogger style game where you’ve been trapped on the highway and are hungry for dinner!
In this updated version of the arcade game Frogger, you are once again stuck on the highway – this time it’s a closed section of highway and the goal is not to get to the other side but to collect 100 bugs which appear on the highway.
This game is pretty fun, the trucks and your little frog are nice and cartoon like, so there is no hard feelings when something bad happens. In general things are easy to see, they’re nice and clear and nothing too annoying gets in your way.
The Frogger game actually works, this time around. Rather than making it a modern style but keeping the same game play, it’s just gone for a whole new approach to the game and it payed off. Collecting the flies is a great idea and rushing around the highway is a real challenge. It’s a very exciting game and a welcome change to the Fogger style of games.
The sounds are quite nice, mostly frog sounds as he ribbits his way around the highway, but the occasional car makes a honking noise and in general the sounds are very effective at evoking the mood of the game. There’s no music but in reality there doesn’t need to be, it’s fun anyway.
This game should be enjoyed not only by Frogger fans but anyone really, as it is a game which stands by itself rather than try to be a straight out remake. Highly enjoyable.
Slow, sticky response and controls on XP. It's a cute idea, but I won't be keeping it. Even if it were faster, the gameplay would get old after a while. It's just plain average.
