How to Play

The game has a short time span of playing which is approximately 10 minutes. The aim of every player is to be the first one to collect six penguins. Pengoloo had been a recipient of several awards by Oppenheim Toy Portfolio, Parents’ Choice Foundation, and Dr Toy.

There are twelve cute wooden penguins with a space to hide one of twelve coloured eggs. Players will get an icicle each which will be use to place the penguins with their eggs. The players must place an egg in each penguin and jumble them up in the centre.

To start the game, players must spin two coloured dice to know what colour of egg they are looking for. They will search for the matching hidden egg by lifting two wooden penguins. If they get one egg, they may keep it; if both eggs that match, they may keep them both, and they will have another turn; if not, it’s the next player’s turn.

If you don’t know where to find one of the coloured eggs but memorise which player has an egg that matches the colour of your egg, you can expose it to save yourself for another turn. Finding eggs in the game is an exercise for the mind and a great fun provider for the whole family.
