23) Freeway So I'm just gonna come out and say it: Freeway's a damn Frogger clone - a more primitive take on the game at that. You know what, I never thought I'd ever say this about a game on Action 52 before, but there are times when I'd rather play this interpretation of the game over the game it apes. In Freeway, you control a dog as you grab various knick-knacks from the top of the screen to the bottom, and levels are beaten when these tasks are completed. There's a divider in the middle there so you can take a break. You can also move diagonally, a feature I can't believe they didn't screw up. Finally, Freeway is as easy as the original Frogger is tough: many gamers have trouble making it past level 2 in the arcade Frogger, but here your main bane will be remaining interested long enough to pass level 2. Audiovisually speaking, it's pretty much everything you'd expect from an Action 52 game, which is to say good for its day if that day was a decade earlier. I found it annoying my dog would only face one direction, but if you ask for a dog with normal lines of sight from Action 52, it feels sort of like asking poor people to pay more taxes or expecting 52 good games for the price of four: downright greedy. |
