The Hungry Little Penguins game by Orchard Toys offers two exciting modes. In the collaborative mode, players team up to fill the iceberg - shaped playing board with differently - coloured fish before the seal reaches the iceberg's center. For the competitive mode, players split the board into individual lotto boards and race to be the first to fill their boards with matching - coloured fish. Suitable for ages 3 and above, it's Orchard Toys' debut in collaborative gameplay. This game helps players develop matching and memory skills, and also boosts personal and social skills. The set includes 1 jigged playing board, 4 3D penguins, 1 3D seal, 4 seal cards, 30 fish cards, 2 whirlpool cards, and 1 instruction leaflet.
Using the game: First, choose whether you want to play the collaborative or competitive mode. For the collaborative game, set up the iceberg playing board and start working together to place the fish cards on it. Keep an eye on the seal; if it reaches the middle, you lose. In the competitive mode, break the board into individual lotto boards. Then, play against each other to fill your own board with matching - coloured fish. The first one to fill their board wins. Note: This game is designed for kids aged 3 and above, so adult supervision might be needed for younger players. The small parts like the 3D penguins, seal, and cards can be a choking hazard if swallowed. Maintenance: Keep the cards and small pieces in a dry place to prevent them from getting damaged. If the cards get dirty, you can gently wipe them with a soft, dry cloth.
