"Frogun is a fun, nostalgia-filled trip through 90s platforming with some interesting twists to keep things fresh. There&s;s a couple of niggles along the way, but overall, if you&s;re into classic 90s gaming, make sure you give this a shot."

"Frogun is a nice reminder of how the PS1 and N64 classics worked, but it also means bringing out just how annoying the flaws of that era were. The adventure itself manages to entertain, but don&s;t expect anything too captivating …"

"Frogun’s aesthetics belies an annoying kind of 3D platformer that demands precision. For that, I’m not sure if I should recommend the game to everyone but the most hardcore of platformer enthusiasts."

"Underneath Frogun&s;s wonderful visual presentation is a 3D platformer that is tougher than it should be, with inaccurate grappling and challenges that are more repetitive than enjoyable. Some initially unique and clever ideas aren&s;t quite enough to carry Renata through …"
