    Frogger has always been something I hold fondish memories of, and am aware of it's classic status, but it has never gripped me past a few minutes blast on MAME or something. But I downloaded the trial of this new update was very pleasantly surprised. The demo is only multiplayer though (local with people or CPU bots), so I roped in my girlfriend to play and she liked it so I thought buggerFrogger has always been something I hold fondish memories of, and am aware of it's classic status, but it has never gripped me past a few minutes blast on MAME or something.

    It's basically Pacman Championship Edition for Frogger. It has a cool funky visual style, of which you can also choose many varieties such as the awesome 8-bit look, and includes multiple different modes. You have the usual Frogger we all know and love (well, like), and has the obligatory online scoreboards (essential here), as well as cool challenges and battle modes.

    I have to give special mention to the music which is absolutely amazing.. Every song is a remake or tribute to the original score and is done really well, very 'technoy' in nature much like Pacman CE, but theres a funk track with old style organs that is amazing, and the last track with the guy singing about Frogger is genius. Worth the price of admission alone!    … Expand

    For a $10 or $15 download, it's pretty fun. It has a lot of modes and some cool challenges. The little cut scenes are a nice touch too. The controls don't work 100% of the time, but they do about 95% of the time. It's a fun little game, worth the price it is.

    An uneven collection of mini-games that are only occasionally suited for multiplayer and lacks the depth to entertain in single player.

    Although Frogger: Hyper Arcade Edition delivers a very complete package, it doesn't do anything new or special. The gamemodes feel almost the same and thanks to that, only the real Frogger fans will be excited by this downloadable game.
