Frogger Beats ‘n’ Bounces
Frogger has been cursed with a spell that forces him to move to a mysterious
beat. Now he needs help to find Toadstein’s castle so that the spell can be
broken.
_Frogger: Beats n’ Bounces_ takes the original _Frogger_ concept and makes a
rhythm action game out of it. The game scrolls vertically and Frogger
automatically jumps forward. Since Frogger is cursed he can only move in time
with the beat. The player’s role in all of this is to direct Frogger left and
right so that he doesn’t crash into the various obstacles that lie ahead of
him. To succeed with this the player has to follow the beat and make the moves
at the right time. Frogger can also use his very long tongue to eat insects
(flies, butterflies and dragonflies) that he comes across. This also can only
be done in time with the beat. Since it often can be hard to hear the beat in
the music, the player can also follow it with the interface that flashes for
every beat.
The player scores points for every lane change as well as for every insect
swallowed. When making five correct moves in a row the player enters crazy
mode and scores double points. Frogger has an energy bar that decreases when
colliding with an obstacle. By eating butterflies and dragonflies, energy can
be recovered.
