Take control of the Rocket Penguin and destroy incoming mines with your laser gun! The operation is simple - with just one touch, add rocket power to make the Rocket Penguin rise. At the same time, your laser gun will fire. When the laser hits a mine, the number on the mine decreases by one. When it reaches zero, the mine explodes. Each mine you hit adds to your score. The game ends if the Rocket Penguin hits a mine. Now, let's aim for a high score by maneuvering the Rocket Penguin!
