AppSpy wrote "What started out as a competent Flash game has quickly come in to its own on the App Store and now boasts 130 levels with more on the way; HD content; and a physics puzzle style that's satisfying to solve." SlideToPlay said "Fragger is a deviously fun game that's quick and easy to pick up and play." 148Apps wrote " Fragger is a solid, well-developed, addictive pick-up-and-play title that should appeal to both casual and hardcore gamers alike. " GamePro wrote "It's hard not to draw the comparison between Fragger and Angry Birds, but the similarities are obvious. Fragger has arguably better level design than Angry Birds, but Angry Birds has a bit more variety because of its different types of birds, so the two coexist well and are certainly not clones." PocketGamerUK said " A neat action puzzler, Fragger is another example of a popular Flash game making a welcome leap to iPhone." Apple'N'Apps favourably compared the game to Monster Island and Hambo. Modojo wrote "Ultimately, the overwhelming frustration makes Fragger HD a huge pain in the butt. For each moment of brilliance (of which, there are many), we can name a ton of bothersome issues that make the game tougher than it should be. Sure, there's a lot of content for $2.99 and the App's enjoyable, but you're much better off purchasing Angry Birds or Trucks & Skulls." AppSafari said "So if you enjoy blowing up cartoony terrorists with frag grenades while playing some gradually more complicated puzzles, then you’ll love this game. The game is entertaining but not for small children." Mobot said " Fragger is an oddly enjoyable “physics-based” exploder, with plenty of bang for your 0p." AppStorm wrote "Puzzling levels that challenge the player are what make a game truly great and Fragger HD succeeds in delivering many a challenge. Miniclip’s classic is still great on the iPad, despite the aforementioned issues."
