It’s tough to be a frog! Life isn’t all lazy days and lily pads – it abounds
with dangers. In fact, ever leap Frogger takes could be his last!
Can you help Frogger survive some perils, and hop Frogger home to safety?
First you have to jump Frogger across a very busy highway.
Watch out for the trailer trucks! And all those cars – especially the
speeding race cars!
Then try to cross a fast-moving river. Keep an out for the “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 then, at higher levels, there are frog-eating snakes!
Watch out for them as they slither up and down the riverbank
and logs in search of Frogger.
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 all these obstacles, and you’ll jump for joy!
