Superfrog is a brilliant game, can't remember if I ever finished it, but I still play it now and again.

One of the many games that I never quite finished got all the way into space. Thought the gamble to get a level code was a bit mean if you didnt know better.

We played it in the Super League recently (again).
I used to like it but now I don't. I have finished it before but even though I've played it loads in the past, I'm less tolerant of its little design flaws (i.e. too many leaps of faith, very difficult to tell which enemies can be killed and which can't, spikes that kill you instantly even if contact with an enemy has caused you to fall into them etc) the more time goes on. |

I used to like Superfrog a lot as a kid, but after having played it recently again I have to agree with Graham, thought I still think it looks great and plays smoothly. Technically and graphically it's a very good game. |

I rather like it, I find it a fun little game... nothing too special but I find it plays well enough and the graphics are clean and nice.

Yeah it's not an offensive game. It does things well and competent enough in that solid enough Team 17 way. I remember liking it at the time as well but personally wouldn't label it as brilliant

I loved Superfrog; I remember thinking at the time it was the best platformer on the Amiga, although my opinion has changed these days. The insta-death spikes were a pita and often poorly placed, but overall quite playable. And the music was superb.
Sticks in my memory because it was the last Amiga game I completed before defecting to the PC. |
