About

In the distant galaxy of Bleurggh, an evil (but reasonably stupid) band of aliens picked up some of Earth's television signals. Unfortunately for them, they could only tune in a wildlife program. They figured the Earth would be a pushover to invade, so they disguised themselves as its inhabitants -- penguins! Word of the invasion has reached those champions of intergalactic do-goodery, Bernard and Rodney. Now, with their help, you must prevent the alien mutant penguins from triggering the Doo...

Unfortunately they are really tough nuts to crack and have a vicious streak running through them that threatens the peaceful tranquility of your world. Mutant Penguins is a truly bizarre concept, wholly original, and with the emphasis placed firmly on FUN.

Pit your wits against the marauding mutants in this humorous Arcade strategy game as you battle to prevent them from activating their lethal Doomscale - the ultimate weapon of destruction.

You are not alone. Help comes in many guises, from normal penguins who will fight the mutants tooth-and nail on your behalf, to little worker Gremlins who can be collected and placed in the locks of bountiful treasure chest to unlock the treasures within. These are in the form of a wide variety of bonuses, including weapons, special powers and extra gremlins. Place dynamite or glue-sticks to deter the Mutants and even build your own machines to thwart the enemy once and for all.
