A fun action puzzle that requires a little bit of thinking. Create paths to guide the penguins to the goal in this free game.

Pingus is a free action puzzle game that guides penguins to avoid obstacles and successfully reach the goal. It is similar to the home game called Lemmings, with easy-to-understand rules, a little strategic thinking, and cute pixel graphics of penguins. Why not try to save the penguins from being wiped out and become their savior?

The penguins in the game were living peacefully in Antarctica. However, due to global warming, the ice melted, there was no food, and it became a serious problem. To investigate the cause of global warming, a penguin exploration team was organized. As the leader of the penguin exploration team, the player gives orders to penguins that travel around the world.

When you start Pingus, penguin squad members will fall one by one in a side-scrolling northern stage. Equip these penguins with items such as propellers and shovels to ensure they land safely and can dig holes. If you open holes or passages, the penguins will automatically walk towards the goal. However, if they hit obstacles or fall off cliffs, the penguins will die.

In Pingus, the number of items is limited, so you need to use a small number of items to save the penguins. There are also tragic stages where you can't save everyone even if you try hard, but if you can save the specified number, you can clear the stage and proceed to the next one. You can also use the terrifying tactic of self-destructing all members and starting over if you get stuck. Hints are also given at the start of each stage, so you won't have any trouble if you understand the basic rules. The explanations are in English, but once you understand the basic rules, you can intuitively operate the game.Pingus is an action puzzle game that guides penguins through various obstacles to reach the goal.
