My parents got me this because I was a total penguin kid, and I had a good time with it. Always got too frustrated by later levels, but in my defense I think I was 6
amazing penguin is strange because it is clearly inspired by Pac-Man, but it's also absolutely more than just a clone. it captures the feeling of turning tight corners well, and the mechanic of eliminating enemies is cool (hit all the points on a given boundary to fill it in and bounce off any enemies along the edges). the pixel murals are super cute. I believe I'm about halfway done after my session.
Say what you will, he is a pretty amazing penguin. It's a puzzle game of moderate difficulty, where you follow paths to break dots or kick them at enemies. It's Pac-Man with a little bit more offense, with the closest comparisons to the overall mechanics I can think of being Mendel Palace for the NES and Qix. I had a pretty good time with it outside of a few massive difficulty spikes.
