Hey, That's My Fish!

Slide penguins across cracking ice to grab fish tiles and strand your rivals on shrinking floes.

Your waddle of penguins slides across an ice floe, snapping up fish-laden tiles. Each move a penguin travels in a straight line, and the tile it leaves behind is removed, opening gaps nobody can cross later. Trap opponents on shrinking islands while you hoard the tastiest tiles.

Who it's for

Families and gamers alike who enjoy sharp spatial tactics and a quick, mean positional fight with charming penguins.

Not for you if…

You want theme, depth or luck-free calm. It is purely abstract, can feel punishing when cut off early, and offers little narrative.

Vibe's take

A tight, cutthroat spatial duel of grabbing the richest ice while boxing opponents onto islands they cannot escape.
