Superfrog is a traditional jump & run platformer where you play as a frog who was once a prince but was turned into an amphibious creature by an evil witch. Your loved one has been kidnapped, and you must navigate through various levels to free her from the witch's castle.
The game features a variety of enemies, including animals like bees, snakes, hedgehogs, turtles, and snails, as well as other beings like knights, mummies, robots, and even your evil selves depending on the scenery. You can collect small blobs to shoot at enemies or kill them by jumping on top of them.
Each stage has a time limit, and you must also collect a set number of coins and other items like cherries and apples to earn bonus points. There are power-ups available, such as wings that allow you to fly, slow pills that slow you down, and speed pills that give you extra speed.
The game is divided into six worlds: forest, castle, circus, pyramid, winter, and space. Each world consists of four stages, and between levels, you can gamble your bonus score in the slot machine to win extra points or lives.
After completing the fifth world, you'll have access to a special "Project F" stage that connects terrestrial and extraterrestrial worlds. The game also features a high score table where you can save your name and compete with others.
