Konami icon Frogger hops back onto PS2 in a game designed to blend contemporary technology with old-school sensibility. While Ancient Shadows plays in true 3D, its top-down perspective and camera-panning levels offer gameplay reminiscent of the 1981 arcade original.

While his friend Lumpy is away, Frogger learns from his girlfriend Lily that the evil crocodile Dr. Wani is threatening Firefly Swamp. He must save his home by solving puzzles, collecting gold coins and dodging hazards.

Frogger does have a few new tricks available to him, as well, such as the ability to climb walls and grab objects with his tongue. Players guide the intrepid amphibian hero through more that 30 levels, on a quest to save Firefly Swamp. In addition to this single-player story, a multiplayer version of the game is available, for up to four. True Frogger fans will also want to unlock an included emulation of the arcade game that started it all.

Features:
* Save Firefly Swamp from the evil Dr. Wani
* Hop around seven themed worlds in classic Frogger fashion
* Includes the original 1981 coin-op game
* Use new moves like the double jump and tongue grab to complete each stage
* Supports up to four players
