Game Description
Croc: Legend of the Gobbos is a charming and colorful 3D platformer that puts players in control of Croc, a courageous young crocodile raised by a tribe of fuzzy creatures known as the Gobbos. When the evil Baron Dante kidnaps the peaceful Gobbos, Croc sets off on a heartwarming adventure across sun-drenched valleys, icy slopes, and bubbling lava pits to rescue his adopted family. With its vibrant environments and endearing character design, the game delivers a whimsical journey that blends classic platforming mechanics with a unique sense of charm.
Players guide Croc through dozens of varied levels, collecting crystals, leaping across hazards, and unlocking hidden chambers filled with secrets and bonus stages. The game’s intuitive controls and expressive animations made it an approachable and memorable entry point for younger players during the PS1 era—while still offering enough challenge to keep veterans engaged.
Gameplay Features

- Simple but satisfying combat using Croc’s tail whip and stomp attacks
- Collectibles galore: gather crystals, rescue Gobbos, and unlock bonus stages

Historical Trivia or Fun Fact
Croc: Legend of the Gobbos was originally pitched by Argonaut Games as a 3D platformer starring Yoshi, intended for Nintendo. After Nintendo declined the concept, Argonaut reimagined the project with an original character—Croc—and partnered with Fox Interactive instead. This makes Croc one of the earliest 3D platformers developed for consoles, releasing shortly after Super Mario 64 and preceding many others, earning it a notable place in 3D platforming history.
