In Ribbit King (ケロケロキングデラックス Kero Kero King DX), the fate of the planet rests on your ability to get frogs into holes. This is the game of Frolf, and, as Scooter, you must play it across 20 different courses on five different worlds. Power supplies are running out, and to save them, you must win the coveted Super Ribbinite. Choose from 13 odd characters and more than 10 frogs to collect items and points through Frolfing matches. Become the Frolfing Champion in Story mode or Versus mode, which supports up to four players.

The North American version of the game includes a bonus disc titled Ribbit King Plus!, which includes cartoon shorts which were originally aired on TV Tokyo.

Test Entries
Revision	OS	CPU	GPU	Result	Tester
4.0.1	Windows 7	AMD Phenom II X4 955	AMD Radeon HD 6850	40-60FPS. Very playable. Use Panic Handlers OFF	SirSpanky
4.0.2	Windows 7	Intel Core i5-2320	AMD Radeon HD 7850	60FPS, Very close to perfect, Panic Handlers Off	Afig110610
5.0-6243	Windows 10	Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3.3 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060	Needs Texture Cache Accuracy: Medium to stop flickering at the end of videos. There's some very faint black boxes around the language options when you first start up the game that I couldn't find a way to fix. Otherwise everything else is perfect with default settings. Played a few holes on the forest and lava planets. Didn't have any need to disable panic handlers.	Xerxes
