The Story Behind Frogger

These scores were surpassed only after the bounties had all expired. She persuaded executives who denigrated Frogger as a "women and kids game" by reminding them of Pac-Man. Several platforms such as the Commodore 64 support both ROM cartridges and magnetic media, so they received multiple versions of the game.

Frogger was positively received by critics upon its release, and is considered one of the greatest video games ever made. Also, an earlier game called Frogs that was developed there had flopped. Konami announced that a Frogger game show was in production for Peacock, produced by Konami Cross Media NY and Eureka Productions.

How Frogger Plays

The opening tune is the first verse of a Japanese children's song called "Inu no Omawarisan" ("The Dog Policeman"). After five levels, the difficulty briefly eases and yet again progressively increases after each level.

Frogger is either single-player or two players alternating turns. The objective of the game is to guide a frog to each of the empty homes at the top of the screen. The player must guide the frog between opposing lanes of traffic to avoid becoming roadkill and losing a life.
