Binary Land 1983

Is it still worth playing?

You unite two penguins in love, Gurin and Malon, controlling both at once as they move in mirror images of each other, with a timer adding to the difficulty. It is a puzzle game from 1983 for the MSX and several Japanese computers and from 1985 for the Famicom. The view is top-down. Spiders, birds and other creatures stand in the penguins' paths and are attacked with the penguins' spray, and cobwebs fill some cells on the field and can slow the penguins down. The background music during levels is Je te veux by Erik Satie, and Beethoven's Ode to Joy plays when the penguins are united. The Famicom version has 99 levels but no ending screen. Steering two penguins at once is a puzzle that is still worth a try.
