Penguin

Penguin

Penguin [by MTM HZSTUDIO] is an android adaption of the original flash game by Chris Hilgert of yetisports.org, called Pingu Throw. Only instead of a yeti (who looks a bit like Captain Caveman) hitting a penguin with a club, it’s a polar bear hitting a penguin with a baseball bat. It’s just as simple, fun and addictive as the original. Who knew that suicidal penguins in combination with a maniacal bear with a cute and at the same time evil face, would be so entertaining?


The aim is to get the highest score possible. This is achieved by hitting the penguin at just the right time. If you hit it too early, you’ll send the poor thing so high into the air, he’ll have enough time to figure out why exactly penguins don’t fly. If you hit it too late, the penguin will bounce like a skipping rock, but won’t go that far. My record is 25 306 points, which isn’t that bad since the world record is 29 154. Judging by the way the penguin bounces at the end I don’t think you can go over 30K.


I like the drawing style and the sounds are fun in a cartoony type of way, but the graphics could be a bit better and some more stuff in the background wouldn’t hurt. Definitely check it out if you like the original flash game and have a few minutes to kill, or if it any point while reading this review you said to yourself “I can score higher than him”.
