I purchased this for my 6 year old. He beat me to the end and I'm still strugling to go forward. It is great adventure trying to save the penguins from doom in several exciting scenarios. A plus.
The only reason for this review is I made the mistake of buying it before trying it. This game has a frenetic Saturday morning cartoon soundtrack I find annoying but a kid might find stimulating. The controls are super simplistic. You have to find a way of redirecting a large flock of penguins to the exit by inserting springs and cannon bursts in strategic locations to unlock levers that lead to this end. I don't mind games with childlike elements but this game is for children or toddlers with adult supervision, not for adults. If you're considering a purchase try it out first. Wildgames' support was nice enough to allow me a game exchange even though I unlocked the game. Thank you wildgame support !
The penguins are so cute, yet misguided, you just want to save them all!
Very fun solving the puzzle of leading the little guys to the exit. Pepper is my favorite lil penguin...
I played it for free as it was loaded as a sample on my laptop. I wanted to play it again. Good price and a fun game that anyone can play! It is challenging and will drive you nuts!
Great thinking game. You have to solve the way they escape...like a puzzle. Makes learning/using your brain fun!

My daughter loves everything penguins especially this game. It is challenging but not too difficult that my 9 yr. old could not figure it out. It has hints to help the kids go from level to level. Your child will need use their logic skills which I love as a parent.
My son wanted me to find this game because he was playing it on a friends computer. When I purchased my new laptop, I told him I would try to find it. I loved the price on Amazon and my son was so happy to get the game so fast. He is one happy boy!!!
Great game. I was a fan of the old "Lemmings " games and this is much like them. Entertainment for kids of all ages.
The most fun about Penguins is shooting the pinguins out of the cannon. It's so fun to watch them fly through the air. I also like the different levels. Some of the funnals are hard to get to but that makes the game that much more challangeing.
My grandson loves penguins, and wanted "anything penguin" for Christmas. I saw this game and thought it would be good. He was excited with it. However, when we installed it to my pc, the game informed us that we had to change the color or the bits or something before it will play. I am not a computer wiz, and can not figure out how to get to the place in my computer that will change these items.
I am not even sure that my pc will change these settings, or if it is factory preset, not changable.
The game just shuts down, waiting for us to change our settings, which I can not seem to do. So, for us, the game is not useful, unless I can find a person who is able to change things for me. I'd have been much happier if the game would play, no matter what my pc settings are.
