    settler C’mon, the name has Colony in it. I was made for this game, and so the game was made for me!

      Penguin Colony was promised to me 3000 years ago, and actually before I owned it it wasn’t a real game anyway, plus the UN (which used to be virtuous) said I could have it before they were taken over by Hamas.

    A friend of my mine was showing the demo of this game to me before our tabletop session way back when. Given what the game involves and imply from said demo.

    spoiler

    nazis attempted to colonize antarctica and found something they shouldn’t have which drove them crazy (lovecraft stuff). Also you play as a penguin.

    I can definitely see the stance and inspiration back then. Pretty cool nonetheless.

      Australians in general can be surprisingly cool sometimes.

      Or very very uncool. You get a lotta whiplash when working with the Australian proletariat
