Floppy Frog GIGA Pet Instructions
Giga Pet video games give kids a small inkling of what it would be like to own a real pet. Players can train their virtual pets, give them showers and take them to the doctor. The games include basic versions such as Digital Doggie, Compu Kitty and Virtual Alien. Floppy Frog is a later version that Tiger Electronics added to the line, along with Komputer Koala. The game starts when you name the pet, then continues as the pet grows and ages.
