I think I’m pretty addicted actually! It’s a very simple game, but there’s still a lot of fun, simple things to do. It’s all about exploring a snowy terrain and interacting with penguins in a variety of ways. The game is developed by Skip, who previously worked on GiFTPiA, Chibi-Robo and of course Captain Rainbow! We’ll have a Video Review on the game shortly, for now please enjoy the Gameplay below.

The game features local multiplayer for up to 4 people, as well as 3 different modes. Today on The Fold we’re teaming up in a 2 vs. 2 player Team Battle. The goal is to beat down the other players to steal members of their line and make yourself more powerful. You can even defeat other players so that they then join your line and are out of the game until another player knocks them away from you. In addition to the Team Battle we’re playing you can also check out a Free Battle where all players are against each other and a Capture the Flag mode where you keep stealing flags from each other’s line for points. It’s an insane game with lots of moves to perform so try your best to keep up with the intense battling!
