This one covers the GameBoy game Frogger, based on the hit arcade game of the same name. Like in its parent game, your goal is to avoid leaving your "mark" on the road... if you know what I mean. Yeah, I don't know much to say about this. But try to enjoy. =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= Section Two: Version History **FROGGER_2** =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= Final - First and likely only version of this FAQ completed. 9:11 PM 5/9/2012 =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= Section Three: Legalities **FROGGER_3** =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= This FAQ may not be reproduced under any circumstances except for personal, private use.

They will widen/narrow the screen, respectively. Otherwise, N/A. ---------------- Playing the Game ---------------- It's a fairly simple concept. You'll notice that you start on the bottom of the screen and, in the top area, you'll see five alcoves. Your goal is to move your character, the frog, into each alcove, one at a time. It isn't all that easy, however. You'll initially have to first get out of the way of cars until you reach the grass on the other side of the road. Then you have to hop across logs and turtles to reach the alcoves. And even then, it still isn't all that fully mentioned. Sometimes, you'll have to hop across crocodiles, which cannot be hopped on the head; or snakes, which are the same. Sometimes, gators appear in the alcoves as well, blocking you from access until they go away. And, of course, there is a timer at the bottom of the screen. If that empties, you lose a life. You can also see the player number, lives remaining, and score down here. You'll head to the next level if you get five frogs in the alcoves, one per alcove. You'll lose a life if you... - Are hit by a car. - Land in the water (but aren't frogs amphibious?). - Are eaten by a crocodile. - Are eaten by a snake. - Are eaten by a gator. - Let time run out. - Go off-screen. You'll get a game over for losing all of your lives. You start with five and get another one for each 10,000 points earned. Upon losing a life, in a two-player game, you'll hand the game console/controller to the other player. ------- Scoring ------- ~~ Move one row vertically : +10 points ~~ Hop onto a log/turtle/etc. : +10 points ~~ Reach an alcove : +50 points ~~ Eat a fly landed in an alcove : +200 points ~~ Deliver the log frog to an alcove: +200 points ~~ Finish the level : +1,000 points Again, you'll gain an extra life with every ten thousand points earned. Also note that, at an approximate minimum, you'll get 1,750 points per level, AT MINIMUM. At this base minimum, you are guaranteed to gain a life in every sixth level you play, so long as you play continuously until then.
