1.On the opening game screen, use the Select button to choose a 1-player or 2-player game. Press Start to select. Then use the Select button to choose a skill level - Easy, Harder or Hardest. Press the Start button to select and begin playing.

3.Catch as many insects as you can by leaping from lily pad to lily pad. The amount of skill that is required in order to catch insects is dependent upon the game level you chose to play.

Easy Level: Jump and catch as many insects as you can. Use the directional pad to make your frog leap left and right from one lily pad to the other.

Harder Level: Jump higher and further to catch as many bugs as you can. Use the directional disc and A button to make your frog leap, but notice that the longer you hold the A button, the further and higher your frog with jump.

Hardest Level: Jump higher and further, and flick the frog's tongue to catch as many insects as you can. Control how far and how high you jump with the directional disc and A button, and press the B button to flick the tongue. Timing is very important on this level.

4.The insects you eat are worth different amounts of points (see chart to the right).

5.If your frog falls in the water you will have to wait for it to swim back to the lily pad, while the other player will continue to catch bugs.

6.During the game the sky will change from light to dark as morning turns into night. When the sky turns black and the stars come out, your frog will go to sleep and the game is over. The player with the most points wins.
