The game is easy to learn and plays out over about 45 minutes, making it a great option for a quick game night with friends. With its unique blend of area majority, set collection, and tile placement mechanics, The Penguin Ultimatum offers a fun and challenging experience for 2 to 4 players. Designed by Jim Doherty and first published in 2003, this game is a lighthearted and entertaining addition to any board game collection, with a dash of humor and puzzle-solving to keep things interesting.
