Penguin: my 30 minute impression
The first thing I noticed was how new my game looked.
The ashtray is covered and has a note presumably saying no smoking please.
The ball lock in back was easier to unlock then my Heiwa.
The play hopper is much smaller then that of the Heiwa.
This means when you hit the triple match,
you have work fast to keep the play hopper full while playing fever mode.
Having the choice of playing goals is nice.
Aiming for the start pocket or four-in-a-row in the Allwins lights is fun.
The black playfield requires good lighting or you won't see the balls.
I liked the sound effects, and happy carnival music.
The 1st tier fever has exciting music & lights,
and is humorously amended by "penguin commentary" when you don't exploit fever mode sufficiently.
I haven't yet found the sound volume switch, but I like noise when I play
The Allwins pauses take some getting use to, and give the game a slower playing feel.
This plus the more frequent play tray refills make Penguin a more leisurely experence.
The five tier fever design means there will be many many hours of play before winning the top big bonus.
Over all, a welcome addition to my game family.
I look forward to playing late into the night.

. I hit two bonus rounds almost back to back. This is definitely a must have machine.
