The Penguins of Madagascar Announced

THQ also announced that a video game based on The Penguins of Madagascar, the popular and Emmy Award-winning series from Nickelodeon and DreamWorks Animation SKG, is currently in development for Nintendo DSi and Nintendo DS. Scheduled for November 2010, the game will bring the loveable penguins - Skipper, Kowalski, Rico and Private - and their top-tier commando skills to a whole new level of mischief and misadventures in and around the zoo. The Penguins must use teamwork in order to complete levels and build useful tools and gadgets to advance in the game. The player alternates between the Penguins, performing acrobatic moves, unlocking paths and creating helpful contraptions. The game will also feature stealth-based missions, super silly interactive moments, bonus levels and mini-games. A special DSi camera feature includes King Julien's sassy and side-splitting critiques of players' own photo snapshots.
