Story

Then he finds his way to "Fairy Town" where he is given 5 tasks he must complete to be allowed to meet a fairy princess. He completes all the tasks, but she turns out not to be the right princess, so he continues his journey. After escaping the castle of an evil scientist, he continues and meets a vampire princess, who also isn't it. He fights his way through goblin territory to a castle where his princess is supposed to be. He finds the princess, whose name is Joy, in captivity of the "magical general of light and industry", the source of all evil in the kingdom. After defeating him, the princess kisses him and indeed, he turns into a prince, after which they celebrate.

Reception
The PlayStation 2 version of Frogger: The Great Quest received generally negative reviews according to Metacritic. IGN rated the PlayStation 2 version a score of 3 out of 10.

The PC port does not have options to change the resolution or overall graphic quality, thus making the world appear jagged and rough. The game is notorious for its inaccurate controls and lazy camera view. The game is sometimes compared to Rayman 2: The Great Escape and Rascal in terms of graphics and overall themes.
