OVERVIEWStep into the flippers of a perky penguin out on a quest for survival — and a safe, warm home. Your colony has grown too large for its over-crowded ice shelf. Since the surroundings are so unstable for that many penguins, you have been selected to lead the advance party to find more permanent nestings. Whispers of a distant, thriving flock have drifted across the freezing antipodial landscape on the breezy winds. Somewhere beyond the shimmering horizon lies a thriving safe haven… if you are brave enough to embark on the perilous journey to find it!The Antarctic is magnificent but merciless. Bitter blizzards, shifting ice floes and the bone-deep cold threaten every wobbling step you take. Beneath the waves nearby, sleek outlines of hungry orcas can be seen. These fearsome beasts patrol the murky sub-zero waters, waiting for one false move.<img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3389490/extras/c97ddd6a309ecaad2e91dcc288e43585.avif?t=1766223206" width=1560 height=878 />Make your way boldly and unfalteringly across this frozen frontier and lead your penguin and their colony towards a brighter future — before the unforgiving cold claims you!

Each step you take away from the fellow penguins depletes your body heat, making every footstep count.

The wilderness stretches out in dazzling whites and shimmering blues, concealing both wonder and danger.As the game progresses, your treks grow longer and more treacherous between checkpoints. Environmental hazards intensify with every precarious step, including:- Icy paths that are blasted by the searing chill factor.- Large mountains, hills and snowdrifts to negotiate your way around.- Sudden snowstorms that reduce visibility, challenging your navigation skills.- Floating ice drifts that require timing and agility to cross safely.- Curious wildlife—both friendly and not so affable—such as meddling skuas or wild orca. As the journey unfolds, the challenges escalate. Early levels ease you into the rhythm of exploration, but soon you’ll face longer distances, fiercer temperatures, and even the jaws of rapacious orcas.
