Pengon reminds me of an arcade game I once played; the principles are the same although there is a big difference in quality.

The program doesn't take very long to load, only a few minutes. No problems were encountered during loading. Just in case you have trouble the tape contains recordings on both sides.

You control a small penguin which can either smash or slide blocks of ice about a grid type screen. Seals are moving around and coming after you. To kill the seals, you slide blocks of ice into them.

The graphics aren't very interesting and certainly don't come up to the standards we now expect from software.

The instructions are plentiful and you can't go wrong. There is also a slip of paper in which the cassette which will allow you to join the Cuthbert Club. This would indicate to me that the game is aimed at junior school children.

K.I.
