From: Martin Brunner on 1 Mar 2010 13:42 Hello! I'm looking for a game where you started at the bottom of the screen, had to defeat some crocodiles and reach the top of the screen. As far as I can remember there was a river and very simple graphics most likely looking somehow like that: http://img2.picload.org/image/rdocla/herkules.png I cannot remember more, but maybe someone still knows the game. Thanks

One of the Froggers perhaps? A quick search shows Frogger II:Threeedeep had a similar layout and a also had a C64 release. Here's a screenshot of the Atari version: <http://www.videogamecritic.net/5200fl.htm> Cheers, Ian

But maybe you also had advance from left to right, but he says from bottom to top.
