This game is very enjoyable... Probably the closest version of Pengo that you're likely to get on any micro. Read Review
In short, another one of those games where you have to shift blocks in a line. All good clean fun. Read Review
An excellent game which is highly addictive... Sound and colour are used well. Read Review
The best version of Pengo currently available for the BBC Micro... The added extras and features give this game a really professional finish. Read Review
Poor old Pengi is locked up in the freezer again! Your job is to try and line up the three spcial "ice-diamond" blocks without being killed by the "snow bees" waiting for you at every turn.
One way to kill them is to kick the blue ice blocks at them, or alternatively you can entice them on to the fence - now you can electrify the fence by giving it a hefty kick - any bees on the fence will now be stunned, long enough for you to run over them and finish them off!
If you can avoid the bees long enough to try and line up the special "ice diamond" blocks (the white ones) then you are rewarded with bonus points; 10,000 for the blocks in the middle of the field, 5,000 points if on the fence.
