### 1/5 — Penguin pals

*2022-10-20, version 1.0.82*

I love the game but you need to have more & better deals to buy coins. All the other games I play that is what they do often is have great deals to buy coins. They set times on how long you can buy it or a one time deal pops up. I have never seen you do this. I would buy if you did deals. Hope you do this. My rating for the game is 5 stars but not for how you handle buying coins.
