You auto-accelerate by default, of course, and the car handles with satisfying heft. There's even an online high-score table.īehind the wheel, the steering is smooth and fluid. There are four game modes in all, with Single Race and Way of the Frog available from the outset, and another two – Ultimate Challenge and Crazy Story – available once you've completed the career mode.
Looks aren't everything, though – particularly not when you're a frog – and Crazy Frog Racer 3D acquits itself just as well in the substance department as it does the style.

It's incredibly formulaic and part of the most consistently disappointing sub-genre on mobile, but Crazy Frog Racer 3D manages to stay afloat in the poisoned chalice of cart racing nevertheless. If you're not quite there yet, Crazy Frog Racer 3D might just win you round a little, not because it's a great game, but because it makes a serious effort, and self-knowingly refers to its own central character as 'the annoying one,' as though atoning.Ī product of the Mario Kart template, this game sees you racing against seven cartoon opponents on tracks littered with power-ups.

When Crazy Frog Racer 3D slid through the letterbox at Pocket Gamer Towers, something surprising happened, or rather didn't happen.
