Crazy Penguin Catapult 2 - Gameplay
Catapult Launch
At the beginning of every level players will need to launch the penguins through a narrow exit tunnel in the upper right side of the screen. If the penguins hit a wall or miss the access point during the catapult stage, then they will be unavailable when it comes time to defeat the polar bears in the battle zone.
The penguins are deposited onto the catapult in two different manners: swinging down from a rope or dropping straight down without tether. When attached to the rope, the penguins will swing back and forth until struck by the catapult and when they fall without the rope, players will only have one chance to launch them before they hit the ground.
The Map
The penguin on the main map can be moved from level to level by players sliding their fingers down the screen or tilting the iPad in the direction of the next mission point. The number of stars rewarded determines if the next level ahead is unlocked. After accomplishing a number of missions a bonus level will be unlocked where penguins only bounce once and no special upgrades are available.
Power-ups
- Twins and Triplets: This upgrade gives players two or three more penguins to launch at the beginning of the level for the rest of the game.
- Ninja: This upgrade allows players to freeze the penguin in mid-air and then alter their directional path via a spinning arrow.
- Drill: This upgrade allows players to more easily carve through the ice block obstacles. Penguins can only acquire this ability if they are launched through the drill icon during the catapult phase.
- Houdini: This upgrade allows players to make the penguin disappear and then reappear at another point in the area. Penguins can only acquire this upgrade if they are launched through the magic icon during the catapult phase.
- Rubber Penguin: This upgrade supplies the penguins with an extra number of bounces before it retires.
- Ice Breaker: This upgrade allow the penguins to break through the ice with fewer hits.
Hints and Tips
- If you are unsure where you want to aim your penguin during its flight, allow it to fly off screen without touching it to give yourself another chance.
- The first upgrades that should be acquired are the twins and triplets, because the difficulty and number of polar bears increases too quickly to survive with six penguins.
- It is more prudent to restart the very difficult missions as soon as you lose a penguin during the catapult phase rather than on the battlefield.
- During the catapult phase, penguins will begin to fall at alternating rates as the game progresses so watch their descent rather than relying on constant timing.
Crazy Penguin Catapult 2 - Controls
Everything is controlled by tapping the screen at the right moment, which includes: launching the catapult, choosing a level, directing the penguins descent and activating particular power-ups.
