Balls Like A Frog (Dr MortalWombat) Free

Game title: Balls Like A Frog

Game description: Balls Like A Frog is more or less a port of the tile matching game Zuma. The objective of the game is to use your frog in the center of the screen to eliminate all of the balls rolling around the screen along a given path before they reach the skull structure. You need to shoot balls from your frog’s mouth to form a matching colour combination of three or more balls. This will result in the balls in the chain to explode and you keep on doing this until all balls are gone.

Summary

A strong conversion of Zuma that delivers on most counts. It is easy to get into, has a good difficulty curve and the initially novelty of the game is fun. But (like the original) soon after the levels feel overly long and I kind of starting getting a little bored with the repetitive nature of the game. It wasn’t until the balls start moving faster that I was able to enjoy it somewhat again. The inclusion of mouse and paddle controls in addition to the two types of joystick controls is a nice touch and on whole this very much looks like a C64 version of Zuma. If you live Zuma then this is the game for you.
