▲==Creation==
Croc was not initially meant to be a character in his own video game. After Argonaut Games had proved their worth of making 3D games to Nintendo, the company had proposed a 3D racing game starring the Mario series character Yoshi to Nintendo, which was supposed to be released for the ill-fated Super NES CD-ROM System.

The Gobbos built a catapult so Croc can cross the ocean to the [[Mainland|mainland]], where he tirelessly runs through adventures, beats up the mean Dantinis, and fights his way through mazes, tunnels, and obstacles.
