Description Edit | History

Once a card game it seems as though Fantasy Flight has nixed this idea completely for plastic penguins! Here's the games description from the game's page itself:

Can you find room for all your penguins on the iceberg?

Reiner Knizia's fast-paced and surprisingly devious new game is fun for the whole family! Stacking penguins in a pyramid may seem easy, but watch out! Penguins will only stand atop another penguin of their own color, and if you're not careful there will be nowhere left to stand!

For 2-6 players, ages 5 and up.

Similar to Pinguïn Party, which is played with cards.

3 Penguin Rules - English
A PDF of the English rules for Penguin.

15 Board (for horizontal play)
Since we had some trouble stacking the penguins for this game, I made a board so we could play the game horizontally (as the card version is played). Place your plastic penguins in a square, starting with the row of 8 boxes, and then making your way to the "top" of the pyramid.
