### 5/5 — One of my favorite games! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*2023-02-21*

The game is really fun and Cute! I love the fun puzzles that gets your brain thinking and the creative bosses! This game is the best puzzle game I have ever played!

This game deserves more then five stars!

### 3/5 — Sweet Game with Issues

*2022-11-11*

I like Frogger, but its really hard to handle on my MacBook. They should have just released it for iPad, as it is clearly made for this.
Also it crashes too often.

### 5/5 — Love the game, but I cannot get to flame ruins.

*2022-09-20*

Thanks for creating a fun and cute game! I was very impressed by the changes from Frogger in Toy Town. I really like the 3D moveable interface. Runs great on iPad Pro. I played through the last “Extra” level in Water Ruins (“Float”). I then went back and collected almost all of the treasures & bestowed items. I see the announcement that “Flame Ruins” arrived, with easier treasure hints and a tree that has gems each day. I have the tree & the more easily seen treasure hints. But I still only see 4 dungeons. No flame ruins! Bummer, ‘cause this was a fun game & I’d like more puzzles to solve!

**Developer response:** We really appreciate that you enjoyed the game.
Regard to the trouble you are experiencing, we would like to know more in detail the situation, please contact us at Inquiry Form (https://www.konami.com/games/inquiry/global/) including the version of the App and OS. 
Again, thank you for your support.

### 5/5 — 120hz?

*2022-09-07, version 1.0.3*

Smoother frame rate would be amazing!

### 5/5 — Cute

*2022-09-04*

I want to counter the bad reviews. I didn’t encounter any bugs, so if there were any they look like they’re fixed. It’s a cute game. I do agree it a bit too small on a phone (I have an iPhone max) so maybe better to play on iPad or computer. I’m not finishing the game because it doesn’t float my personal boat. I think it’s a bit better for kids. But it’s still really cute, I see the charm.

### 5/5 — More please

*2022-08-02, version 1.0.2*

I want more Frogger games on Apple Arcade they are so fun I love them

### 5/5 — Frogger <> Rumbling Ruins

*2022-07-29, version 1.0.2*

Awesome Game.. Runs great on 2020 intel Mac Book Pro.. Also Mini Mac M1.... Geat game.. need more like this.. even new levels would be Great..

### 5/5 — One if the best games on the app store

*2022-07-25, version 1.0.2*

This is a great ios game.

### 3/5 — Not installing

*2022-07-23*

I’m not sure if I’m the only one, but it gets to about 1/8 installed, stops, and resets to not. I have deleted it. Hit it to install over and over, and no result. I’ll update my star rating if this can be fixed.

UPDATE: it took a couple of days, but finally installed. I tried it on wifi and cellular to see if it made a difference and it didn’t. It just ended up installing. 

I only played the game a few rounds. Unsure yet if I like it.

### 5/5 — Interesting game once bug fixed

*2022-07-15, version 1.0.2*

Thank you.

### 5/5 — Lovely puzzle game

*2022-07-15*

I love non-timed puzzle games.  This one has a bit of timing but not so twitchy that I have no chance.  New mechanics continue to be revealed in different levels keeping the game interesting.  The axolotl is adorable and Frogger and froglets are great - graphics and dialogue. There have been a couple levels where the scorpions got stuck or the rotate blocks were touchy but overall this is a perfect distraction before bed.

### 5/5 — This reminds me of wonderbox

*2022-07-13*

So it should have level creator
(Sorry about the short review i wrote another review not even a minute ago)

### 4/5 — Fun puzzles, frustrating interface.

*2022-07-10*

The moving pieces turn too easily and kill my frog or froglets when I’m just trying to move the also hypersensitive camera. I like the structure, but the gameplay could be more fun.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2022-07-03, version 1.0.2*

I play this on my iPad due to how much is going on with the movements.  Please keep this updated. Love it.

### 5/5 — Glitches fixed. Review updated

*2022-07-01, version 1.0.2*

The developer replied and advised that glitches have been fixed. Impressed with the fact they responded as most developers I have experienced don’t respond. Thanks for listening and acting on issue raised.

### 5/5 — Finally!

*2022-06-22*

I don’t understand any bad review on this game. It’s fantastic. I finally get a frogger game worth playing again, the first time since the old PS1 games. More 3D puzzle oriented. It’s exactly what I wanted. I like the controls, plenty of camera angles and now that I’ve gotten used to them it’s been awesome. Thank you so much for making this. I absolutely love it. I was worried with the first couple of stages but it just keeps getting better. The PS1 games I would spend hours and hours playing. Great job, devs!

*Edit: Finished the game a few days ago. I still have some of the “extra” levels but I hope to see more added or a new game identical to this. A lot of fun. Yes, the controls and camera angles can use a bit of tweaking but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

### 1/5 — Frog

*2023-10-18, version 1.2.1*

Is this game dead? I can’t get beyond the first set of levels, I’ve tried to get help and even sent previous reviews but had zero response. Such a shame as I was really enjoying playing!

### 1/5 — Just wanted Frogger

*2022-11-17, version 1.2.0*

I just wanted Frogger, this game just bothers me with all the text pop ups. I quit. Deleted

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-09-15, version 1.1.0*

App just sits on the title screen, unable to tap any of the buttons.

### 1/5 — IMMEDIATELY CRASHES

*2022-07-04, version 1.0.2*

Two minutes in, the game crashed my entire computer, causing it to overheat and requiring a hard reboot of the computer.

Not what any of us want to experience in a game.

### 1/5 — Game not finished

*2022-06-08, version 1.0.0*

The game is missing information which makes the game unplayable! You don’t know what is happening in the dialogue, let alone how to play because there’s no real information. Very disappointed

### 1/5 — Fix text menu

*2022-06-08, version 1.0.0*

No dialogue/story boxes - just looks like place savers. Unplayable.

### 1/5 — So bad

*2022-06-07, version 1.0.0*

In the beginning it was fun but at the end of the first part it is so bad and the controls make run into guardians

### 1/5 — Dead set the worst game ever

*2022-06-07, version 1.0.0*

By far the worst game I have ever played, which is saying something because I’ve played some shockers.

### 1/5 — Unfinished

*2022-06-06, version 1.0.0*

All dialogue and menu information missing. Clearly the game has been uploaded unfinished.

### 1/5 — It’s the small things that count.

*2022-06-06, version 1.0.0*

Please update your game as titles do not display properly.  They only show text placeholders.

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2025-05-03*

I like this game so much. It has so many good levels and good bosses. I like also how the levels get harder when you progress oh and the extra levels and thanks for adding the celestial ruins. And my favorite ruin is the flame one.

### 5/5 — Please read this!

*2024-08-08, version 1.2.1*

Frogger RR is an awesome puzzle game I feel like this game has a little left not covered up and still leaves you hanging. The Game has many challenges and gets hard at some points but Is still fun because you still get hints in the menu which makes the puzzle more clear. The bosses have checkpoints which is more easier for the 2,4,5, and 6th boss. The bosses are easy except for the 6th Because the gravity has a lot of potential power

I hope the creator makes more of these games, 
Please play and best regards…..

### 5/5 — Frogger toy town will make a return!

Konami, we want toy town back!

### 5/5 — Perfect so perfect most perfect game ever!!!!!!!!

genius idea and smooth operation

### 5/5 — Really great

*2023-10-20*

This is such an amazing game!! I am beyond impressed. How could anyone give it a bad review. It is so much fun, and the graphics are amazing.

### 5/5 — Really Great Game

*2023-10-17*

I absolutely loved this game. At first the puzzles seemed a little too easy, but there are some levels which really test you to think creatively to beat. I loved the story and the characters. Wish there were more levels to play. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — It’s so good!

*2023-10-03*

I love this game! It’s very well-made and animated, and it runs very well. It also is very unique, but fun to play! Great job developers at Konami :)
One request I have though, is the ability to play the game at 120FPS, as I have an iPhone 14 Pro that supports that ability.
Thanks!

### 5/5 — great puzzle game!

*2023-09-10, version 1.2.1*

i was caught by surprise when i first started playing this game. like an another person mentioned, this game is a fantastic non timed puzzle game. i can't say enough good things about this game.

### 5/5 — Fantastic Game!

*2023-06-22*

I love this game. Have played it through numerous times on my iPad. The graphics are cool and the challenge increases with each level. I only have a couple of minor suggestions for a some annoying features. Purchasing items in the shop and restoring collectibles would go faster if we didn’t have to read the same message each time.  The way it is coded now requires too many clicks. I’d also love it if I didn’t have to tap the screen to read through the dialogue scenes. Why not just run the whole scene at once?
