Oh no! Duncan is on the Loose! Duncan is a penguin who loves to skate on thin ice, much to the
dismay of the other penguins. As Duncan skates he weakens the ice. If he skates completely around
another penguin…Ker-Plash!..the ice collapses and the penguin falls into the pond. Dunk the other
penguins without coming in contact with the Seal and Polar Bear, and you are the winner!

1. The First Screen to appear is name of the game. Press the “Start” Button to begin playing and enjoy the game!
2. The game will start with 4 Penguins and one Seal. You will control Dunkin as he skates around on the ice creating a White Line behind him. If he is

able to create a square around any Penguin, Seal or Polar Bear, then these animals will fall into the ice and become an ice cube.

3. The object at each stage is to dunk the 4 Black Penguins. However, there is a one Seal that is trying to attack you and has the ability remove your

White Line with a Red one. So, you need to escape from the Seal, and cut the square white line to dunk the black penguin at the same time.

4. When the second stage starts you will also have to beware of the Polar Bear. Do not touch the Polar Bear or you will die. With every new stage you

reach more Polar Bears will come out increasing the difficulty.

5. Don’t worry because you can kill the Polar Bear if you are able to complete a white square around them. They will be dunked into the sea and

become an Ice Cube. In addition, you will also have a Magic Freeze option to slow down the Polar Bear and Black Penguins (not the Seal) for a short
period. During this period, you can pass them without any danger.

6. You cannot kill the Seal. You can only slow him down by making a White Square around him. When he is inside of your white square he will only be

frozen for a short period of time. Then he comes after you again.

7. When the second stage begins there will be some Lobsters on the screen. If you can get them, you will have extra Magic Freezes to freeze the Polar

Bear and the Black Penguin.

8. You will receive points for dunking the Black Penguin and Polar Bear. As well as for Freezing the Seal and Eating the Lobster. In addition, you will

receive a greater amount of points based on the size of the box you cut.

9. If you receive more than 10000 points you will receive a Dunkin Penguin.
10. Your stage level will be indicated by the number of Snow Balls at the top right portion of the screen.
