The premise, in the publisher's words
The arcade game Frogger involved players guiding their frogs across a busy, several lane street, then maneuvering through a water area in the second area of the game, jumping on logs and the backs of turtles and crocodiles in order to reach and fill up the five frog home bays at the top of the screen. Various obstacles and enemies would kill the players' frogs upon contact, as well as if they were to run out of time before making it to a frog bay, hit a top wall, drown in water, or pass too far to the left or right edges of the screen. V-Frogger is a clone of the arcade original with some graphical changes and enhancements.
