Sega/Price TBA/Game Gear

A fast-moving sort of puzzle/arcade affair that requires a quick mind and mitts to match, Pengo is in a similar mould to 8-bit oldster Penguin Land. You step into the, erm... flippers of a lovable and gaily coloured, arctic feathered type, and your mission is, as the title screen so succinctly puts it, to "Squash the Sno Bees". The aforementioned Sno Bees are also out to get you, so perfecting your squashing skills is of the essence. Each progressive round sees craftier, more numerous sno bees, plus other twists to keep challenging your skills, and so holds your interest enough to keep you coming back for more.
