I used to play this when I was a kid and this primitive piece of early software captured my infantile imagination vividly .
Go up the ladders and catch the fish before the polar bear catch you ,,, simple but fun .
Ideal for kids ... not so for adults .
This time you play a starving penguin ,,, don“t let him die of hunger . :(
ps - I just love eccentric games with mad plots and glamorous presentations , especially when they feature snow and wintery themes ... can anybody tell me the psychollogical explaination for this , please ???
ps - my astrological sign is Aquarius ... does it ring any bell ??
thank you !!

For a BASIC written game its not that bad. The graphics are adequately cute and its even quite playable if you can say so.
The levels are randomly generated although the difficulty rises from level to level, but you cant go too far because the characters move in squares not pixels meaning the polar bear will eventually catch up on the fish before you and probably you will never play more than 5 minutes each game.
Has a BASIC game I will give it 3 points, for the general ratings 1,5 points.
Note to dandyboy: maybe your Aquarium has icy water eheh. Oh and Aquarius is born in the winter, so...
