Editorial Review

The classic arcade game Frogger snatched more than a few quarters back in the '80s. Hasbro's smash hit comes home with an entirely new look and sound. You'll hop through nine gaming worlds and dozens of levels in a new 3-D-based gaming environment. The game begins in familiar territory as the first levels are faithful 3-D re-creations of the classic arcade game. However, as you begin to progress deeper into the game, you'll find new areas that are equally challenging.

Whether or not you are a fan of the original game, Frogger stands on its own as a modern-day favorite. This title has consistently ranked among the top-selling home video games since its release. -- Brett Atwood

Pros:

• Based on the arcade hit
• Dozens of game levels

Cons:

• May not appeal to some hardcore gamers

4.0 out of 5 stars Frogger, November 24, 1999

The new Frogger is a combination of easy fun and frustratingly hard. It is a bit addicting - my friends and I just HAD to get past a certain level before we turned off the console.. but it gets to the point where one would like to start to tear his/her hair out. The first level is the best (that's the classic Frogger), the second level sort of leaves me wondering where i am supposed to be hopping, the third level is impossible (i think it's just there for show), and it continues on like that -- some levels are tricky and fun, others are just not possible to complete, and others are very ambiguous about how to get to the goals. All in all, i liked the game. It has simple controls and it's fun to play by yourself or with a friend.

4.0 out of 5 stars Frogger is 3-D, June 12, 2001

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Frogger (Video Game)

Frogger is a great game. The object is to save 5 little frogs. (yellow,red,green,blue & purple) Then you can go to the other levels. Sounds too easy? It's not. You are timed & you have to make sure you don't fall into lava, run into spiders or fall in the water. (It is weird but in this game frogs can't swim.)You can also play with up to 4 people in multi-player mode. In multi-player mode you try to get 5 flags instead of 5 frogs. You are not timed. Whoever gets 5 flags first wins.

1.0 out of 5 stars This is not like the Frogger we knew and loved, November 10, 1999

This review is from: Frogger (Video Game)

Grand visions of my favorite arcade game from the 80's filled my head as I purchased the new Frogger. I rushed home and put it in my Playstation only to be completely frustrated. The first level is like the old Frogger I remembered, but the rest is completely different. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind change, but the least these people could have done was created a game that was playable. It is very difficult, and after a couple of frustrating days I put the game away to collect dust. It's not just me, friends have reported the same thing. Be warned, those of you who are trying to recapture your youth, it's not the same old Frogger we knew and loved.
