Official description

All dressed up and no place to go? Not so with Frostbite Freddie! He's on a goodwill mission, visiting as many bases as he can before time runs out!
Catch fish and collect flags for bonus points! And be on the lookout for curious seals and holes in the ice!
Speed counts! Is time on your side?

Description

The player takes the role of an Antarctic penguin, racing to disparate research stations owned by different countries in Antarctica. The gameplay is similar to Sega's Turbo, but plays at a much slower pace, and features platform game elements. The penguin, later named Penta, must reach the next station before time runs out while avoiding sea lions and breaks in the ice. Throughout the levels, fish jump out of ice holes and can be caught for bonus points. The game, like many early video games, has no ending – when the player reaches the last station, the game starts from the first level again, but with increased difficulty.
