OBJECTIVE
The objective of Frog Hop is to keep the frog jumping along
the lily pads for as long as possible. When enough points
have been acquired, a special Next Level lily pad will appear
and you must have the frog reach it in order to continue to
the next level.
GAME PLAY
At the start of the game, you will have 8 seconds before the
frog begins to jump off the pink starting pad. The frog
will follow the direction of the yellow dots that are
on each pad. You must create a path for the frog by rotating
the lily pads in a clockwise direction by clicking on them with
your mouse. After the frog jumps off a pad it will sink and
cannot be used again, however, the lily pads with the cross (+)
are never removed from the board.
Your frog can jump off the game board from the top, bottom,
right or left as long as the lily pad opposite the exit
(top to bottom, right to left) is a valid entry path.
15 bonus points are awarded every time you exit and re-enter
the game board.
STARTING LILY PADS
The frog will start to jump off the pink starting pad after
8 seconds have elapsed. During the 8 second count down,
you can rotate this starting pad, but once the frog starts
to jump, you cannot.
On some higher levels there will be several frog starting pads.
You will not know which one of them is the real starting pad
until the frog starts to move. Some levels have as many a three
starting lily pads, so you'll have to plan quickly for all
possibilities. When the real frog starts to jump, the dummy
starting pads will be reset to normal lily pads.
JUMP METER / RESET BOARD
There is a Frog Jump Meter located on the right side of the
board. This meter counts off the number of lily pads the
frog has jumped on. If you can get the frog to travel across
8 lily pads and can exit the game board, then all the pads
will be reset and 50 points will be added to your score.
Each time you reset the board, one pad will turn dark green
and cannot be jumped on by the frog.
POINTS NEEDED / NEXT LEVEL PAD
The points needed score indicates the amount of points you
have to reach before the special Next Level lily pad appears.
You must then have the frog reach this pad in order to continue
to the next level. The needed score is computed with this formula.
Score + (Level * 75) + 100
TURBO JUMP BUTTON / DOUBLE POINTS
The frog gains points the longer it continues to jump. If you
click on the Turbo Jump button below the game board, then the
frog will speed up and get double the points. When the frog
exits the board and re-enters it, the speed will resume at the
normal pace. Using the Turbo Jump button is essential to gain
high scores. Make sure your pathway is already set up before
hand.
BONUS LILY PADS
On some levels there will be special blue or red bonus lily pads
with either 60 or 30 written on them. If you can get your frog
to jump onto these special pads you will have those bonus points
added to your score. You get double the points if the frog is in
Turbo Jump mode!
FORK PADS
These pads are signified by the ? on them. If your frog jumps
onto these pads it will randomly select one of the possible
directions. Every time you use one of these pads you will be
awarded 15 bonus points.
THE FLY
On each level a fly can appear on the game board. If you can
get the frog to land on the lily pad with the fly, then you will
be awarded 250 points. (500 points if in Turbo Jump mode)
END OF LEVEL
The level will be over when the frog comes to a dead end and
cannot continue to jump. Each dark green lily pad on the game
board will add 50 points to your score. If you have successfully
reached the Next Level lily pad extra bonus points will be added
to your score. The extra level points are given using this
formula (level*100).
END OF GAME
If your frog runs into a dead end and does not reach the
Next Level lily pad the game will be over. If your score is
in the top ten all time high scores, then your score will be
recorded and you will be asked to enter your initials onto the
scoreboard.
POINTS / SCORING
5 points for each jump ( 15 per lily pad )
15 points for each fork lily pad
30 points for the red 30 point bonus lily pad
50 points for resetting the game board
60 points for the blue 60 point bonus lily pad
(100*Level) points for completed level
250 points for capturing the fly
When Turbo Jump is on all points gained are doubled!
(excluding the reset board points)
