This is just a clone, but one that is done well-enough.
-
The multiplayer support is what's the real winner here, giving the game something original to share with other GBA owners without the need for extra copies.
-
The new additions to the "Frogger" gameplay actually end up hurting Zapper rather than helping it.
-
The multiplayer game is the only place where the game shines with its ability to play on four GBA’s with the link cable with a single cartridge. With deathmatch and a couple other fun games, the multiplayer game has some fun left in it.
-
Nothing special, and unless you really want to try out the arcade mode and multiplayer mode, you should stay out of the way of this one.
-
Cheat Code CentralAside from the unique zapping power of the cricket's antenna, there is little to distinguish this game from "Frogger" with the exception that it's not as good.
-
"Enemies" in this game have absolutely no AI and merely circle a pre-destined path, and you merely are required to avoid them. That’s it. I suppose this is a good thing because actually controlling Zapper is akin to Sisyphus attempting to roll that boulder up the mountain in Hades.
