Turtles need to stay up longer! In this era companies were breaking away from the norm, and the trend seemed to be the designing of what can only be called "cute" video games. The example below is no exception. Frogger was originally going to be called "Highway Jumping Frog", but after much deliberation, the bigwigs at Sega decided that this didn't quite capture the fun nature that the game was trying to achieve.
The object of the game was quite simple. The gamer had to move their frogs 5 in total from the bottom to the top of the screen in 60 seconds or less, while avoiding the hazards along the way. In the first half Frogger had to avoid a bi-directional flow of traffic, which included cars, buses and the faster moving race cars. In the second half of the game, the player had to try and negotiate a fast flowing river by hopping onto logs and the backs of turtles before jumping into the home base situated at the very top of the screen.
At various times throughout the game a lady frog would appear. Bonus point were earned if you could jump on the back of the lady frog, and guide her home. Other bonuses were flies that would randomly appear in the home bases themselves. So the objective would be to steer Frogger into the base were the fly was situated.
As the game progressed other hazards would become ever more present, animals such as crocodiles, otters and snakes. Although Frogger could jump on their backs, except the snake the trick was to avoid their open mouths at all costs. There have also been many clones produced throughout the years including; Froggy, for the Spectrum, and Hopper, which was released for BBC Micro and Acorn Electron home computers.
The success of "cute" games such as Frogger go along way in proving that fancy graphics are not everything, and addictive game play is what turns games into true legends.

Various improvements and bug fixes have been made. The upper half of the screen consists of a river with logs, alligators, and turtles, all moving horizontally across the screen.
The very top of the screen contains five "frog homes" which are the destinations for each frog. Every level is timed; the player must act quickly to finish each level before the time expires. The only player control is the 4 direction joystick used to navigate the frog; each push in a direction causes the frog to hop once in that direction.
On the bottom half of the screen, the player must successfully guide the frog between opposing lanes of trucks, cars, and other vehicles, to avoid becoming roadkill. The middle of the screen, after the road, contains a median where the player must prepare to navigate the river. By jumping on swiftly moving logs and the backs of turtles and alligators except the alligator jaws, the player can guide his or her frog safely to one of the empty lily pads.
The player must avoid alligators sticking out at one of the five "frog homes", snakes, and otters in the river, but may catch bugs or escort a lady frog for bonuses. When all five frogs are directed home, the game progresses to the next level, with increased difficulty. After five levels, the game gets briefly easier yet again gets progressively harder to the next fifth level.
