"'''Croc: Legend of the Gobbos'''" ([[Croc! Pau Pau Island]] in Japan) is the first of the Croc video game series. Developed by [[Argonaut Games PLC]] and published by [[Fox Interactive]] in 1997. The game was released for the [[Sony PlayStation]], [[Sega Saturn]], and [[PC]], although the game was originally developed for the PlayStation, so the latter two platforms were ports. In 1999, a sequel to the game was released, ''[[Croc 2]]''. Furthermore, a [[Game Boy Color]] version titled ''[[Croc (Game Boy Color)|Croc]]'' was released in June 2000. |

[[King Rufus]], along with all of the other Gobbos on [[Volcano Island]], raise the crocodile in the ways of the Gobbos. [[Croc]] is a vegetarian who eats mostly peas. After some time on the island, Croc and the Gobbos have established a close relationship until one day the evil [[Baron Dante]] shows up, along with his minion [[Dantinis]]. They kidnapp several [[Gobbo]] creatures including [[King Rufus]] after he straps a backpack to Croc's back and has [[Beany Bird]] take Croc to safety. [[Croc]] is then determined to rescue the Gobbos and [[King Rufus]] from the evil clutches of Baron Dante. |

Each of the four main Islands contain six 'normal levels', in which Croc has to collect six Gobbos and five [[Coloured Crystals]] . The Coloured Crystals open the [[Crystal Door]] at the end of each normal level which contains the sixth and final Gobbo. This is usually the hardest part of the level and often contains a challenge which Croc must complete to get the Gobbo. |
