As one of two lowly bullfrogs, your task is simple: try to nab the greatest number of insect morsels possible on your froggy tongue while hopping around the lily pad. Hey, not every frog can live the wild life of Frogger, can they? (M Network [Mattel], 1982)

An exceedingly simple game, the basic premise of Frogs & Flies was recycled into no fewer than two games for the Atari 2600 (the other exponent of the "frog eating flies" sub-genre being Atari's own Frog Pond). Frogs & Flies is basically an Atari 2600 port of Mattel's Frog Bog cartridge for their own Intellivision platform.

Rating:  Two quarters - worth playing, but could use some more work.
