What I do like is the choice of controls. Joystick mode is my favourite which shows a mini joystick at the bottom of the screen which you simply tap to move your frog in the right direction. As the name suggests, slide mode involves sliding your finger over the frog in the direction you want it to go. In tap mode you tap the area of the screen corresponding to which direction you wish to move, although I found this rather difficult to get my head around.
You can also play the game in phantom mode which displays a ghost version of your frog which moves as you did in the game where you achieved the highest score. This is pretty handy and reminds you how you played to achieve your high score.
Overall, this is the most authentic version of Frogger for android and is very playable. Your frog is very responsive and the game certainly reminds me of the happy times I spent in my teen years playing on my Atari back in the 1980s - well worth the 0.63p asking price!
However, if your device has a screen smaller than 7" then you may want to avoid the game due to its small size.
