Reception

The game received "generally unfavorable reviews" according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. [3] GamePro said, "The crummy gameplay combined with Frogger 2's deceiving graphics (kids will struggle with this game) and jab-a-screwdriver-into-your-ear music make[s] this one of the worst titles available on XBLA."
