There was once a time when Konami’s original Frogger ruled the top of the charts. It’s still sitting pretty at #100 in the US but maybe this new release should be “up there” again. Check out Frogger Inferno:

Frogger is back and he’s “hotter” than ever. Frogger Inferno is now available for your iPhone and iPod Touch, featuring the same classic arcade-style game play, but with a twist! Frogger now leaves a trail of fire wherever he hops, and he cannot retrace his steps.

Features

- New Game Feature – Trail of Fire
- Cars, logs, turtles, alligators, and other classic Frogger® friends/foes
- Facebook Connect: compete with local, friends, and global leaderboards

My problem with the original was that there was very little done to make it fit more with the iPhone in terms of graphics, presentation and design. However, that game didn’t fail to bring back retro gaming memories. This one shouldn’t fail you either. We’ll serve up a full review soon but for now, any thoughts?
