Penguin Colony

Overall, Penguin Colony is strong in its penguins and their abilities, atmospheric tone, and approach to discovery and storytelling. Some audience members may bounce off this title because of its approach to sharing adventures and understanding the game itself.

Not your average Lovecraftian horror.

Penguin Colony is many things. Within its four-hour playtime, the amusing penguin gameplay might overstay its welcome. Nonetheless, the subject matter is one that rings true even to this day. In a world where it seems that people in power are walking on eggshells trying not to offend anybody, it seems like abusive tyrants took that advantage to take over the world. Using cosmic horror to portray these real-life horrors is a stroke of genius.
