Frogger: Ancient Shadow is an action platformer for the whole family that merges the classic Frogger "hop-n-dodge" gameplay with platforming elements for an exciting new challenge. Join Frogger at his home in Firefly Swamp, where a dark secret has recently been uncovered. When an evil crocodile by the name of Dr. Wani tries to resurrect an ancient evil force that used to inhabit the swamp, it's up to Frogger to save the day. Joining the hero on his adventures is a new playable character, Berry, a teenage Amazon frog who performs as an acrobat in a traveling caravan, with her own unique skills. Frogger: Ancient Shadow will feature a lily pad full of unlockables and extra stages that, when completed, open up additional endgame sequences. In addition, gamers will be able to play with up to three other friends in a series of Frogger mini games. As a special bonus, retro fans can enjoy a blast from the past as they unlock the original Frogger arcade game!

Good mental challengeMay 17, 2007
By T. Isaac Although this game does involve reflexes and timing, it's really more of a puzzle than an action game. In each level, it is necessary to figure out where to go and what to do to get to the end. Many of these puzzles are very imaginative and interesting. Many times our whole family would sit down and watch, giving suggestions and advice, while I tried to complete the latest level.
My biggest gripe: the second-to-last level (of about 28) is a "mini-game" that requires very quick reflexes and precise timing. The trouble is, the game doesn't respond to the controls precisely enough to make the level playable. Even with 7 lives, I don't know if I'll ever finish that level.
Even with that, the game was fun for the whole family, even those who were just watching.
