    The idea is good but the control and graphics are terrible. What is this N64?

    i liked the original frogger, so i picked up this game just to check it out. This game is a sick disgrace of frogger. it makes the original look bad. This game is horrendous. absolute horror. I say we kill the frog and let it rest in peace.

    I'm appalled at why Frogger went from crossing traffic to crossing a freaking jungle, but the worst part about "The Great Quest" is that it's one of the most unimaginative games I've ever seen. Pros: Rich in visuals; the detail in some of the levels are nice to look at. Cons: The characters look hideous; terrible control and camera; a completely unimaginative storyline; the mechanicsI'm appalled at why Frogger went from crossing traffic to crossing a freaking jungle, but the worst part about "The Great Quest" is that it's one of the most unimaginative games I've ever seen.

    This game is bad. It has graphics that belong on the N64, the levels are bad (except for the swamp level, that one is kind of good with it's atmosphere), it's characters are just horrendous, the enemies are copy paste, the game usually has no idea what the f*** is going on, *cough*cow in the mushroom level*cough*, the camera is bad, and the music... is actually pretty good.

It's a shame that such a good soundtrack got wasted on this garbage. The only reason you should EVER consider buying this game from the local truck stop bargain bin from 2002, is for the soundtrack.… Expand

    This game is so strange and doesn't seem like a frogger game heck it isn't even good. In metascore I would give this a 42. This game is luckily not on the gamecube.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I really tried with this game, I really tried to like it, but it's so flawed. This had potential of being amazing, but instead it feels it was more rushed than Spyro Enter The Dragonfly, Sonic 06 and Sonic Boom Rise of Lyric. It was cool having a Frogger game where he can walk, but this is not the way to do it. Lots of broken physics, questionable writing and while the graphics are decent, they still look a little messy. The ending to the game was pretty bad as well, where Frogger becomes a human prince. I know that's part of the fairy tale, but still. This is probably the worst Frogger game out there. It could've been amazing, but it wasn't.… Expand

    This is one of the worst games I have ever played that appeared on the PlayStation 2. There isn't a single item in this game that brings this experience anywhere near to fun. The controls are hideous, the story is a cringing mess, the voice acting is as hackneyed and badly acted as it gets. This is a truly appalling game that isn't worth a single second of your time.

    And here we have the heavy weight contender for the worst plat-former to ever grace the Playstation 2. Sometimes you just have to ask yourself...why? Why such poor control? Why are the characters made of rotten vegetables? Why so many plot holes? And why does the Dark Trail Ruins level sound like a Scribblenauts stage? At the end of the day, I say this game has done more harm than good.And here we have the heavy weight contender for the worst plat-former to ever grace the Playstation 2.

And why does the Dark Trail Ruins level sound like a Scribblenauts stage? At the end of the day, I say this game has done more harm than good. While it does fall into the category of hilariously-bad games, I feel bad for all the young children that accidentally stumbled upon this cauldron of nightmares. Despite being an E-Rated game, this game contains a handful of foul words. Like the mad scientist Dr. Starkenstain saying the words "Your really pissing me off". There's also tons of terrifying enemies in this game. They may be easy to defeat, but be prepared for a handful of jump scares. That Bone-Cruncher beast, the demonic fish in the river levels, the ghosts. Their going to give your kids some serious night terrors. The only credit I could give this game is that I enjoyed some of the music tracks. It's just a shame that their paired with annoying platforming and lazy level design. In fact, while I was playing through the Dark Trail Ruins level, I fell into the void below and watched my entire world turn inside out. It's fun for older audiences who want to make fun of terrible gameplay. Like this one time, tree scorpions pinned me to a wall and jabbed like their lives depended on it. Frogger is technically the villain of this game. He's a greedy piece of fungus crossed with a hormonal teenager on a great quest to fulfill his cliche desires of forcing a princess to kiss him. So far its the most broken game I have ever played.… Expand

    Unfortunately, the camera grates throughout proceedings and you often find yourself either stuck behind scenery or with Frogger running directly toward you and thus not being able to see where you are going.
