Dodge traffic, ride the logs, beat the clock

One small pixel frog, several lanes of traffic and a river with no bridge: that is the setup of Frogie Cross the Road. Cars move at different speeds, wild boars charge in from the side, and the only way over the water is to hop along floating logs. Guide Frogie up the screen to safety before the clock expires, across ten levels that grow steadily harder.

How to play Frogie Cross the Road

  1. Choose a level on the level select screen; there are ten, each tougher than the last.
  2. Hop forward and sidestep to slip through gaps in the traffic.
  3. Keep an eye out for wild boars and leave yourself an open lane to dodge into.
  4. At the river, land only on logs, because a jump into the water ends the attempt.
  5. Make it to the safe ground at the far side before the timer hits zero to clear the level.

Tips to play better

  • Before every hop, check that the lane ahead will still be clear when you land, not just right now.
  • Pause in the middle of the road between waves of cars rather than at the roadside, where traffic is on you before you can react.
  • Ride a log sideways to line up your next jump instead of leaping at a gap you cannot reach.
  • Cross the road quickly so you have spare seconds for the trickier river section.

Frogie Cross the Road FAQ

Is the timer in Frogie Cross the Road tight?

Not very. There is room to pause on a safe square, and waiting for a clean gap usually beats a rushed hop into traffic.

How do I deal with the wild boars?

Always keep an escape route. Before stepping into a lane, make sure a neighboring lane is open so you can sidestep when a boar charges through.
