What is Froggy VR?
Froggy VR is a virtual reality game available on the iTunes app store and Google Play store. Players eat flies and avoid the alligator in a journey to find a frog’s lost loved one, collecting treasure and exploring the swamp along the way. The game is free to download, but full play is purchased in-app. This app is rated for everyone.
Froggy VR immerses players in a fun, cartoon animated swamp world to explore. Being a virtual reality (VR) game, Froggy VR requires a VR headset to play.
The game is developed by FIBRUM, a company specializing in VR games, with many other selections of varying themes. Kids love exploring the swamp for treasure and capturing flies while staying away from the alligator.
The gameplay receives great reviews, as the developer is experienced in creating smooth, enjoyable VR games, but common the app commonly receives complaints about the pay structure.
The free tutorial version is very limited and does not offer nearly enough gameplay to keep users entertained. Players complain of constant ads to buy the full version that interrupt and interfere with gameplay.
If you don’t want to pay for it, Froggy VR is hard to enjoy. FIBRUM has expanded their offerings to the iOS system as well as Android, making Froggy VR available for both iPhone and Android users with a VR headset.
Is Froggy VR safe for my kids?
Froggy VR is a safe game for kids old enough to play VR games. Younger kids might find VR disorienting and hard to play.
Most experts recommend that kids under 13 should not use VR, as it may damage the eyes of younger kids. The game itself is safe and fun for kids.
Parents should be aware of the constant attempts to tempt users to purchase the additional in-app content, and should establish ground rules with kids before play about making app store or in-app purchases.
Breaks from screen time are important with any video game or app, but with VR breaks are especially important. Due to the proximity of the screen to the eyes and the total presence in the video game, isolated from the world around the player, experts recommend users take a ten-minute break for every hour of play. This allows the eyes to readjust to spatial and depth perceptions of one’s surroundings – it lets the senses breathe.
Froggy VR is free of graphic violence, sexual content, and opportunities to chat to strangers.
