Description from the packaging.

It's tough to be a frog! Life isn't all lazy days and lily pads- it abounds with dangers. In fact, every leap Frogger takes could be his last! Can you help Frogger survive some perils, and hop Frogger home to safety?

  • First you have to move Frogger across a very busy highway. Watch out for the trailer trucks- and all those cars!
  • Then try to cross a fast-moving river. Keep an eye out for the pink "lady" frog. When you see her, get Frogger to help her home. If you do, you'll earn bonus points!
  • Jump Frogger carefully onto the diving turtles before they go under water! And don't be fooled by the alligators that look like logs... Frogger is safe on their backs, but a free meal near their mouths!
  • And beware of the frog-eating snakes! Watch out for them as they slither up and down the riverbank in search of Frogger.
  • And then, at higher levels, there are the river otters. They can grab Frogger off the end of a row of turtles or a log, so hop Frogger away from them!
  • Home at last! But look before you leap. If there's a fly waiting, Frogger can gobble it up for extra points. But if there's an alligator waiting, it'll gobble Frogger!

Get Frogger past as these obstacles, and you'll jump for joy! For fast-hopping one- or two-player fun!
