Frogger is a neat game with dozens of challenging levels, nine unique worlds, cool music, and 3-D graphics. Frogger is an excellent game for people who have skill and like to fun. People of all ages will love Frogger. GET THE GAME FROGGER!

Froger is AMAZING!

I bought Frogger for my daughter thinking that, given the price, it would be just an update of the old cross-the-street-cross-the-river game of my youth. But this is so much better. There are five different games that you can compete on - and up to four people can compete at one time (though it is difficult to fit four at once). But the best part are the games for individuals. There are ten different "worlds" and each world has up to five levels. Furthermore, not all worlds or levels are available to play on in the beginning. You have to win a level to move on to the next, and after you win a few levels, new worlds open up. You do everything from avoiding getting trampled by buffalo to flying on the backs of ducks. Some games are based on speed only, while others depend on how well you can move out of the way. Plus, this is one game that you don't have to worry about blood and gore. It is harmless, but incredibly exciting.

Great Multiplayer game

Frogger is a great simple multiplayer game. But th single player games are really crappy. The levels are too easy to beat. The graphics lack a smoothness to them but other than that they are O.K.

Don't Jump for Frogger

I was really looking forward to this game. However, I was disappointed once I started playing it. The graphics are terrible. The game is very slow. Controlling the frog is awkward. I'm really sorry I wasted my money on this one.

this is awesome!

I still prefer the arcade version, but this one is a fine substitute. Be prepared to spend happily wasted time playing this game. I would recommend it to anyone who wants his PC to be a fully equipped entertainment station.

In the arcade game, you cross the street to get home. In this new version, you collect baby frogs to save the population. There are many new obstacles, and some fun parts here and there, but getting all of the baby frogs at once I think is too much to ask. For one thing, you're timed. That makes it nearly impossible to do anything but the quickest way. The music is okay, but the gameplay is choppy, the graphics are like enlarged pixels, and you have to play the levels over and over to know what to do. In short, it's a waste of time that can get way too addicting, even with the quality. I don't see why you need to save the population 225 baby frogs left, and there are many farfetched ideas of bad guys. It also crashes my system, and my friends', too. I'm glad this game isn't mine.

This game was great. It was A LOT better than the original. The graphics could be a little better, but other than that, it's really fun to play and easy to control.

An utter disappointment

Take it from one of the original frogger fanatics -- the retro level is not even close. They tried adding more detailed graphics, and ended up completely slowing down and destroying the game. You're not even allowed to see the entire playing field, only the next few jumps. All this for more detailed bumps on logs. Ridiculous. It's also hard for me to understand how the play can be so disastrously jerky when computers must be at least what? 1000 times faster than 20 years ago? Even the typeface is completely unreadable. What a shame.

(To top it all off, the highly paid professionals that just plain ruined this game seem to have spent most of their development time on frog fornication graphics. Embarassing and juvenile, but not particularly appropriate for an 8 year old.)

Frooger is better than before!

I bought frogger as a arcade bundle from AOL,and love it!The old version was monophonic this 1 has support for surround sound,the old 1 had 8-bit graphics,this 1 has 3d.The 3d graphics aren't bad(worst on playstation folks),but could be more vivid.Sometimes if your graphics card is poor it will freeze or crash your pc.Single player moods are easy and fun.Multi-player modes are a bit fun for 2 people,but for 4 it's difficult.It is fun to play on a good graphics card and with a large screen moniter,but still it isn't truely "original" in gameplay.But still much better than before. And for those others who said it had poor graphics,adjust the video graphics to high and your screen to 8000 by 6000.Lower the brightness and boost up the contrast on your moniter to get the "true" 3d effects!(Please disregard if you don't have a ATI PRO video card).
