Players will discover that a total of 8 different symbols populate the reels, with 7 of them featuring various animals, including Fish, Whales, Birds, Octopuses, and – of course – Penguins.

Although Awesome Penguin is far from being a feature-rich release, it doesn’t mean it lacks excitement. The game proves you don’t need a long list of complicated features to keep the punters seated for hours.
Featurewise, here you’ll only encounter the Wild symbol and the respin feature. The iceberg serves as the Wild, and as usual, it will be able to help complete a winning combination. It has one additional role – to unlock the respin feature. While doing that, it will also become a sticky Wilds. Once triggered, the respin feature will go on until a winning combination is formed, increasing the size of the win multiplier by 1 with each subsequent spin. It should be pointed out that Wilds will not appear during the respins.
