You play as a penguin that has a magnifying machinegun which is used to magnify the enemies, so much so that their weight crushes the ice beneath them. Furthermore, those very same holes in the ice created by the previous enemies, can be used by the player to lure other enemies to their deaths, even without shooting at them! \n\nI really like how clever the gameplay is and how you managed to do something rather innovative, even if the game-type itself is so ancient. I love the story and setting, and the art is adorable. Even the Penguin-HUD deserves a gold-star for being so innovative. \n\nThe only thing I didn\u2019t like with this game is the annoying choice of music. I didn\u2019t feel like it was fitting at all and it was so annoying that I actually had to take my headphones off.
