Of all the hasbro re-makes of 80s video games, this and pacman adventures in time are probably the best ones. the simple 3d gives this game a surreal atmosphere, the music is legendary, and the game enjoys a strong modding scene to this day. It's also a pia to run on modern systems, so seeing it run on modern os's would be amazing.
My mother woke me up at 4:00am on a school day because she’d been up all night playing this, and had finally competed the very last level and was excited to share that experience with me.
For a non-gamer who didn’t know how to use the computer, Frogger was immediately accessible to her, but also with levels challenging enough for even a dedicated gamer. Great level design, with plenty of variety but with simple, consistent mechanics.
The whole family has amazing memories of this game, and more than any other, this is the game I'd love to see remade. At least 5 day-one sales from our family, should it ever happen!
The after-school care system at my gradeschool had 2 computers, and a copy of this game. As kids, we would 100% complete this game, delete the save data, 100% it again, etc. Revisiting it as an adult- this game is still wonderful. It's got a hard, but fair amount of challenge, the levels are set in gorgeous locales. This game has a decent modding community on PC, to my understanding.
Unfortunately, the PC version of this game is extremely difficult to make work without access to its CD. I've gotten it to run in the past, but it reads all its sound off the disk. Not super accessible or convenient on a modern PC with no disc drive. I would love nothing more than to see this game come back..
Used to play this all the time on my PS1 as a kid, in fact me my mom and brother played this and we would race each other and sometimes my brother would rage when he lost. lol
As universal as Nintendo's Mario has become, Frogger still remains the other classic platformer, and another game that literally defined the 1990s.
Like Mario, it was so simple, yet so challenging: don't fall into lava, don't get crushed by everything from lawn mowers to cars to stampeding buffalo. Pretty much anything and everything could kill you, and that was the fun challenge of learning to look before you leap.
Frogger is weird. Imagine sitting down in the mid 90s, and getting to compose ambient music for a game about a frog just trying to find all the babies. It's good. Except the timer. Curse that timer, not letting me drink in the levels and the designs! (Thankfully, there are cheat codes you can type in.)

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
