Crazy Frog Racer is a Racing Game starring the infamous Crazy Frog, or The Annoying Thing, consisting of two games. The first one was released the 21 of November 2005 while the second one was released the 1st of December 2006. Both games were made by the same company, the French developer Neko Entertainment.

The first game was released on PlayStation 2, Nintendo DS, and the PC while an different version of the game was released on the Game Boy Advance. Its sequel, Crazy Frog Racer 2 was released on the PlayStation 2 and PC.


The Crazy Frog Racer games contains examples of the following tropes:

     General 
  • Adaptational Modesty: Crazy Frog lacks his visible penis from the videos here.
  • Canon Foreigner:
    • Everyone in the first game was created specifically for said game, barring the title character and the robots that appeared in the music videos.
    • The second game brings us the Annoying Drone, a robotic version of the titular Crazy Frog.
  • The Cutie: Ellie is a blond haired fairy who wears a blue dress.
  • Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Matilda, despite being the sole Secret Character in the first game, is completely absent from the second game and the DS version of Crazy Frog Racer.
  • Evil Chef: Michel, judging from his Slasher Smile and tendency to wave his hatchet around.
  • Fragile Speedster: Crazy Frog, the Holiday Thing and Ellie are really fast and have amazing acceleration, but don't turn particularly well and tend to get bumped around by everyone else.
  • Go-Karting with Bowser: Crazy Frog is racing with several types of Drones (the red and black robots that appear in the music videos).
  • Jack of All Stats: Jack (fittingly enough) and the Annoying Drone have decent stats all around, but don't excel in anything except road-holding.
  • Jiggle Physics: Present on Ellie's breasts and Crazy Frog's belly.
  • Mighty Glacier: Drone and Sub Drone, who have poor acceleration but a high top speed and weight.
  • Skyscraper City: The City Cup from Crazy Frog Racer 2, based on the Axel F clip. Another fun fact: it's also the ONLY landscape of the first game.

  • Dolled-Up Installment: This game was created from a reworked version of Mario Kart XXL because they were both created by Denaris Entertainment Software.
  • Dreadlock Rasta: Rasta Dog is based off the Rastafarian stereotype of having dreadlocks, gold chains, rasta hat and smoking a joint.
  • Glass Cannon: Puschel has maxed out acceleration and speed but low curve stability and power.
  • Jack of All Stats: Dream Boy's stats are perfectly even, befitting of his average design.
  • Lightning Bruiser: Big Elk and Toro have maxed out speed and power but low acceleration and low curve stability.
  • Reformulated Game: Unlike the console versions which play like F-Zero, this version is far closer to the likes of Mario Kart: Super Circuit.
  • The Mafia: Mafia Hen is a chicken wearing a brown suit and hat, blue goggles, a black afro and fake mustache.
  • The Quincy Punk: Punk Girl as her name so states, is a punk girl. It also doesn't hurt that her excellent stats make her one of the best characters in the game.
  • Version-Exclusive Content: Aside from the Annoying Thing himself, the remaining characters are exclusive to this version and aren't seen in any other version of the game.
