That a fairly old game i used to play ages ago.
It's simply named Frog and it could even be played on 286/386 machines.
Not to be confused with Frogger where you got to jump across a street. In Frog you got to catch flies, bees, get gimmicks, evade the light in dracula style levels and so on.

I talked to several ppl - they all knew that game and even played it before BUT noone got it. :blink:
I tried searching some abandonsites but could find it.
Keep in mind: not Super Frog, not Frogger, not Leapfrog - simply Frog.

Would be great if you could organize this one. THX in advance!
Great site btw.

I'll look around. This sounds like a challenge. B)

Hey Tom, I'll take my hat off for you, if you find this one. I used a half hour yesterday looking for it, and I couldn't even find a description of the game. :(

It surely is a challenge ;)

Could it be this one?
This game is called Frog Bog (http://mobygames.com/game/shots/p,28/gameId,11917/gameShotId,60221/) (a.k.a. Frogs and Flies)

I am downloading a game called Frog.exe but I'm not sure it is the right one.

Damn, that game looks old!!! :blink:

By the way:
I know this is a little off topic, but, how is it going in Spain? Are you getting any?

Ok...
The file Frog.exe was not the correct one :angry:
It was just a crappy Java-game with a frog in a mixmaster.

I think I know that one. It's where you can turn the volume of the blender up and down, right?. Sadistic shit! :angel: :lol:

You can get the game here (http://www.atariage.com/software_page.html?SystemID=2600&SoftwareID=2189).

Just click on Download ROM.
(You will need an Atari 2600 emulator, but I think you'll be able to find one of those on your own :ok: )

Nice game.
I got it working but that's actually different from the one i'm searching for.

If you rated games availability and gave ultra rare games 10 points, this game would break your scale with a score of fifteen.

The only hint that I found is this: http://groups.google.com/groups?q=frog+gam...ogle.com&rnum=1 (http://groups.google.com/groups?q=frog+game+german+-board&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&selm=c827bd3f.0405231638.2ca723c7%40posting.google .com&rnum=1)

Maybe this game is only available in german and I better forget about it :w00t:

The language wouldn't bother me - it just doesn't seem to exist.

You could try to talk to Atari Frog :sneaky:

He might know some more.

Maybe you should try to seach for the german word for "frog", whatever that is.

"Ich suche nach einem Frosch." :P

The first one you found is acutally quite close to what i'm searching. Same front view and same crappy gfx. The others are just Frogger clones.

And i'm not going to look through the 4,220,000 results google gives me for searching "frog".

Why not, It probably wouldn't take more than a couple of months! :w00t:
