Highway Hopper is a lane-crossing game in the Frogger mould. The board runs from a grass start, across five lanes of traffic, over a median, then across five lanes of water to five home tiles. Traffic will kill you; water will drown you unless you are riding a log. Every crossing is on a thirty-second clock.

Tips

  • The clock is thirty seconds per crossing and it does not stop for hesitation. Finishing with half the time left earns Time Banker.
  • Water is lethal on its own: the logs are the floor. Crossing the river on logs alone earns Log Dancer.
  • You start with three lives and they carry across crossings, so a careless early run costs you the later ones.
  • Backtracking is sometimes the safe play, but One-Take and Don't Look Back both reward committing forward.
  • Rhythm beats speed: twenty consecutive hops without stopping earns Flow State, and it is easier than it sounds once you read the lane timings.
