I don't know what the developers were thinking - Frogger was a nice simple idea and they turned it into this.
There are few games on this earth which are genuinely so bad and devoid of any merit that they destroy my day upon playing them. This is one of them.
Do you know the feeling of experiencing something truly horrible and just trying to forget, but the harder you try the more you think about it.
On my List of Games I never want to play ever again in my entire life, this sits at the very top.

Played for a charity stream. Frogger is a khaki cargo shorts wearing goon in this one. All he's missing is the green shirt with the Triforce on it. A fairy tells him to spit a goober in an early tutorial.
"Coming off of the arcade version of Frogger, which is a characterization masterpiece and paragon of gameplay, this version of Frogger is impossibly catastrophic. Frogger makes a leap (lol) from being our likable blank slate protagonist who we just want to see get to the other side of the road safely into a deeply unlikable and disappointing excuze for a frog. What’s with the bone sound effect?
Graphically the game is ugly. Plain and simple. Voice acting is mid but what else do you expect from Frogger.
The game’s antifeminist rhetoric is deeply entrenched in the naming of Lily, which eagle-eyed Frogger fans will recognize from the HIT TITLE, Swampy’s Revenge. Naming all girls Lily and therefore reducing them to one singular entity, especially when that name is congruous with a frog’s home, the lilypad, is misogynist.
If this hasn’t convinced you, they stole Silent Hill 2’s Promise. Lily’s not your Mary.
But Slick Willy can get it tho"
The hubris in the above review displays an unhinged troglodyte who has, clearly, burst. Frogger is a departure from its predecessors, it's true, but it is also a breath of fresh air and work of art in it's own unique, specific way. In creating The Great Quest, the devs seek to absolve themselves from what once made them legendary, and in doing so create a truer, more real game.
The fact that this person missed the obvious metaphorical and narrative explanations for what they've crudely described as "the bone sound effect" should be proof enough that this is not a review or a reviewer worth respecting. That the obvious subversions of the concept of "fridging" with the character of Lily have flown over this simpleton's head is no surprise, either.
Slick Willy is also ugly as hell. Stan The Magical General of Light and Industry.
