Slip Slidin’ Away…
We are releasing yet another new game…one that targets spatial orientation and develops your sense of direction by requiring you to guide a hungry penguin to a snack. Watch out, though — he’s on ice and things can get slippery, causing your penguin to become disoriented if you are not careful!
Please find our new game here http://games.lumosity.com/penguin_panic.html and, as always, let us know what you think.

It is really good the way your spatial orientation starts to change smoothly with the moving iceberg.
Equating lives with one fish seemed a bit drastic for a brain development game where low stres is generally best.
Perhaps the taking fish back to bubba story and you see how big you got your bubba might put more joy into it.
A fun little game.
When will it be added to the gamepool?
Thia one challenges the mind and the fingers - good game.
First thing I thought of, was being tossed by a wave and not knowing which way is up.
The game is cool; may I suggest adding pit or two that need to be navigated, otherwise they send the penguin to another part of the map through, let’s say a tunnel?
I have one suggestion. Maybe a very large picture behind the maze that moves along with the maze in the background might help. The arrow seems a little small.
or maybe not having as many clues about your orientation is the point of the exercise. I don’t know. . .
48720 is my highest score as of now, what about you guys?
81440 is my best.
I found this one hard… the whole which way is up thing.
I can see where it might be useful but will take practice!
I like it. 500,000 is my PR.
Sorry for the typo, I meant 50k
Somewhere near 160 000 seems like robot territory.
I’m too confused about which way is up?!
First try was difficult, then I got 95,780
Gotta practice more… Saludos desde Mexico
Nice game - I got 98,120 when I tried it
My first couple of games really stressed me. Now I like it. I think I’m on my third or fourth game, and I reached lvl 17. At this level very few mistakes are allowed. My score is around 110K.
I teach in a Brain Injury program and we would like to check into getting discounted subscriptions for all our students (adults) Coastline Brain Injury Program. It would be about 80. Do you have any possibilities for this.? I was told someone from our program already spoke with Lumosity and was told it was possible but that personnel has left Coastline for personal reasons and I can’t seem to reach him. I have already told students we were purchasing them subscriptions through the college and they are so excited and now the office tells me no such purchase order was ever originated. Can you give me any information if this group subscription at a lowered rate is possible.
Thank You,

i made it level 15
Excellent, this game just told me one thing… I suck in it, ha ha ha. I guess the challenging the game, the better.
Quisiera me informen si està disponible en español.
Gracias.
i love maps and this was a great game to test one’s orientation (no matter how much the iceberg rotated). As long as you know which way is North, then you’re fine. You just hit the appropriate arrow key to go N,S,E or W.
A very challenging and enjoyable game. After a bit of practice I made it to Level 21 with a score of 165190. At this level the other penguin moves very very close to your penguin’s speed. Not quite robot territory but close. (As to the strategy I used? No idea really, I wasn’t explicitly aware of the direction arrow at all and handled it automatically). Indulging in competitiveness and curiosity: beat that! and is it possible to get much further?
Actually after playing a few more times and getting over 170k I’ve realized in retrospect that there are only 20 levels; after you beat the 20th you continue playing at that level.
I don´t think that 20th level is the last level. I just got to level 22 scoring 181800.
Huh? arimaa_master, I just played it again to check what you say and no, the 20th level is the last one, and it repeats that level if you beat it (i.e. 18, 19, 20, 20, 20, 20, …). Nice score by the way, the most I’ve gotten thus far is 181440.
