News: A new Penguins of Madagascar game has just been released to coincide with the theatrical release of a movie by the same name.

The penguins of Madagascar are back and they have arrived on the Nintendo Wii, Nintendo 3DS and the Wii U. Developed by Little Orbit, the “Penguins of Madagascar” is being released alongside a movie of the same name that will be hitting theaters on Thanksgiving. This new game features the adventures of Skipper, Kowalski, Rico and Private in the pursuit of their beloved Cheezy Dibbles.

Players will join their favorite elite spy team of penguins in a hunt for their precious Cheezy Dibbles, but along the way they stumble upon a nefarious plot from the evil octopus, Dave (Dr. Octavius Brine). The Penguins travel from their Tiki Home Base to exotic locales all over the world in an attempt to thwart Dave’s evil plans.

Penguins of Madagascar is a stealth platformer where players take on the role of any of the four penguin heroes and can instantly swap between them depending on skills needed to face every zany situation encountered. Players will solve puzzles and utilize each penguin’s individual abilities like wall climbing and ledge grabs to foil Dave’s diabolical plan. Resourceful penguins will use helpful objects like conveyor belts and moving platforms to accomplish their missions while gathering glorious Cheezy Dibbles along the way.

“Our goal was to bring that same irreverent humor that these characters are so well known for in the movies to our game,” said Matt Scott, President of Little Orbit. “The Penguins are fun to watch as they attempt their own version of covert ops on the big screen, and we think our game captures that same hilarious tone as you play on the smaller screen!”

The Penguins of Madagascar are available on the Nintendo Wii for for $29.99, the Nintendo 3DS for $29.99 and the Wii U for $39.99. Do you plan on picking up this game? Tell us what you think below.
