Frogger arcade game free download
Frogger is one of these games, sort of. You won't find the original game here, but what you will find is an updated version of the same game. It tries to be newer, faster, bigger and best, but ends up being the same old thing with some other stuff mixed in. This is not the same Frogger you will remember.
This version is 3D, has nine unique worlds and can play up to 4 players together on a split screen. Not only is this frog better to look at, he also comes armed with a heat-seeking tongue, power croak and supver jump. All the game really needs is a little direction and it would have been a lot better.
For all of you young 'uns out there that don't remember the arcade game Frogger, let me explain the basic idea. You played as a frog. It was your job to work your way from the bottom of the screen to the top of the screen and save the baby frogs. Sound simple enough? Well, it starts out easy enough, but things start to change the farther you progress through the levels.
In your attempt to save the baby frogs, you must maneuver your frog through streets of heavy traffic and across a raging river, with only logs and the backs of various creatures keeping you from plunging to your death in the water I always thought frogs could swim, but what do I know? Anyway, after you rescue the 5 baby frogs at the top of the screen, you move on to the next level.
The next level adds more traffic, less time and less objects in the river. The game was very addicting and ultra-popular at the time. Set your clocks ahead about 12 years to the present and Hasbro's release of Frogger. Unlike most retro games, this game has been completely redone. Usually, the idea behind retro games is to keep the original intact. People want the same graphics, music and gameplay. Frogger deviates from this formula. The only thing that really carries over from the original title is the gameplay in the retro levels.
Other than that, the graphics and, for the most part, sound is nothing like the original. What is wrong with taking the addicting gameplay and updating the graphics and sound to today's standards? Not a thing. I really enjoyed the retro levels on this game. They felt like the good old arcade game if it were to be released in the 90's. You get that same feel that the old arcade machines gave you, right down to the rushing traffic and perfect timing required.
It was a bit difficult to get used to guiding your frog with a control pad instead of a stick, but you will get the hang of it soon enough.
The multi-player mode was also fun on the retro levels. This has you and up to three friends battling to get to the top of the screen and save the most baby frogs. This mode resulted in more good-natured harassment than I can remember in a long time. You will get a few good hours of enjoyment out of this mode. The only drawback is that when playing with more than two players, the screen does get difficult to see.
So what is it that I didn't like about this game? First, and foremost, I did not like any of the new levels. In the retro levels it is clear and easy what the intended goal is. The new levels are very unclear on what the object is and where it is located. In the retro level, you know the object is to work your way from the bottom of the screen to the top of the screen.
Simple enough. The new levels have you going off in directions that you have no clue or indication if this is even the correct way to go. Since everything is on a time limit, you don't have the time to explore the level and locate your goal. It is also very easy to get lost and not have any clue where it is you are supposed to be going.
This will leave you throwing the controller down in frustration. The other thing I did not like about the game was that it just gets boring pretty quick. Like I said, the retro levels were fun, but you can only play them so many times before you get tired of doing the same things over and over again.
Since the new levels have no direction and are basically a crap shoot on the object, you will find more frustration than fun. If you are like me, you don't mind challenge, but you at least want to know what the hell you are trying to do and have some idea of how to do it. The move to 3D has done our little froggie well. The updated graphics on the old levels look good and it makes you think about how much things have changed.
The cars, trucks, logs and alligators all look cool, and there is never a question of what items are. The only thing is, back in the old days, graphics did not matter much. So in the one area the new Frogger really shines, graphics, it really is just secondary because the gameplay on the new levels is not too enthralling.

Your task in this arcade conversion is to guide a frog across a treacherous road and river, and to safety at the top of the screen. Both these sections are fraught with a variety of hazards, each of which will kill the frog and cost you a life if contact is made.
The road is full of cars and trucks, at variable speeds. The river water itself is fatal, as are the snakes which hover within on later levels. Frogger must use the arrangement of logs, turtles which are only there for a short time and alligators but stay away form their faces , and then jump into one of the open home-cells, ideally one containing a fly for extra points.
Once all holes have been filled, you move onto the next, harder, level. I'm sure you all know this little addictive title. The game was simple. You're a frog hence the title Frogger and you need to get to your hiding place. To do that you need to cross the street and a river. Crossing the street means avoid getting run over by moving vehicles. Crossing the river means you need to hop from turtles, to logs in order to reach the safe haven on the other side. If there's a fly inside you'll get additional score, but if there's a wolf inside you'll get eaten.
If you hit anything the wall or a car you die.
