2 versions of this program were released.
The first version was labelled "for Oric-1", but ran fine on Atmos. First side had the fast recording, and side 2 had the slow recording.
The second version still had the inlay is labelled "Oric-1", but a yellow sticker on the tape box says "Atmos compatible" (See General Look picture (GL)). The old and the new versions were on this tape:
- side 1: Oric-1 only version [hopper_o.tap]
- side 2: Oric-1/Atmos version [hopper_a.tap]
There's a set of separate French instructions, very badly translated.
Can be used with a PASE joystick with the program Joystick Adapter 1.

Definitely one of the more playable of the Frogger clones on Oric .. even has decent music and effects, give it a polished feeling even if the animation is a little jerky .. this was a special game for me since it was the first I learned to break the copy protection with, way back in '83 .. using the !OLD command, lol ..

Of all the Frogger clones I played on Oric, this was the most playable. The graphics were a little large and the music out of tune in places, but compared to 'Jogger' it's a masterpiece |

The best frogger clone that I have ever played.
I remember spending hours upon hours playing this game (that and centipede). |

Quite a good Frogger clone. Sound and graphics are both good. The graphics are little too large and chunky for my liking, which allows only 3 lanes of traffic and one row of turtles, but the game is very playable and control is excellent. Everything moves really fast by level 7! |
