## What is Build Penguin?

Grow your own penguin village in the Antarctic - a cozy pixel idle game.

[Mine the Ice]
Tap the ice rock and your penguin swings the axe.
Every tap stacks more ice into your store.

[Merge the Ice]
Tap two matching pieces in the ice store and they merge into a higher tier.
Soft Ice to Hard Ice to Crystal. Three tiers to merge!

[Build Igloos]
Tap once to pour your crystals into an igloo. It rises floor by floor, and when it's done a new penguin moves in and the village grows.

[Penguin Dex]
Every new penguin joins your Dex. Collect all 7, from the tiny penguin to the golden one and the legendary rainbow penguin. Tap a penguin walking around town and it will say hi.

[Upgrade and Idle]
Clear quests to earn fish, then spend them at the shop on pickaxes, auto-miner penguins, bigger storage and defense walls. With auto-miners on duty, ice keeps piling up while you're away. A polar bear shows up now and then - tap to chase it off and grab a reward.

Under a sky that shifts from morning to day to sunset to night, with auroras overhead, take your time and grow your little pixel penguin town.

No sign-up, no in-app purchases. Just tap and build.
