Pen Pen Tricelon for Dreamcast

Pros: Neat-o characters
Cons: Short lived

What decent human being couldn't resist the ultra-cutesy characters in Pen Pen Tri-Icelon ? The developers over at Infogrames try to lure us in with these adorable characters, will the gameplay match the Rainbow Brite warm fuzzies?

Pros: So cute your kids will love it
Cons: So cute you will develop a love/hate relationship with it

Rather than write a review from a adults standpoint,I decided to show you how this game makes my son happy. My son seems to be joined at the hip to the dreamcast. There is a place here called Game Crazy that allows him to trade his old games towards new...

Pros: nothing
Cons: nothing

Somewhere in a land far, far away called Iced Planet is a place populated by animal-penguin crossbreeds called Pen Pen. Pen Pen Triicelon is a comical racing game that offers something totally unique to those lucky enough to have a Dreamcast. Choose 1 of...

Pros: The glide function is interesting
Cons: A very simplistic game

I don't really agree with the opinion that "a kiddie game should be easy". It should START easy, yes, and stay that way a good while, but the challenge should gradually increase. That's why a game, like, say, Diddy Kong Racing has...

Pros: Really fun for people of all ages, though suggested for children
Cons: A little repetitive, all the stages have the same "feel"

This is a phrase that I shouted out a numerous amount of times throughout the races ... Though I've tried almost all the characters, I think Sparky is my favorite ... I'm not really sure if it's his "cool helmet" or those big red eyes, but he's...

Pros: Colorful Graphics, Fluid Movements
Cons: Slow Speeded Animals, Annoying Voices, Lacks Challenge, Lacks Replay

I must have been dillusional the day I picked up a copy of "Pen Pen Tricelon". The game lacks challenge and depth which are the very foundation games were made upon. Perhaps the "fun for adults and kids" was a bit of an understatement...

Pros: graphics
Cons: weird

I rented this game and beat the whole thing in a day or two. Pen Pen is probably the most screwed up game on Dreamcast yet. You play 8 different Pen Pens (Japanese for Penguin.) And race them through 4 courses. The characters in this game are well...

Pros: fun multiplayer, good graphics, easy to learn
Cons: not much challenge with the AI, not much difference between races

Use the Dreamcast as an electronic baby sitter? If you do, you've gotta get Pen Pen Tricelon.

This game is definitely geared towards kids and if you're expecting it to hold your attention for more than 30 minutes, you're out of luck. If...

Pros: Really nice preschool game
Cons: Really nice preschool game

If you are older than 3 years old, stop reading this now, don't even consider this game for a rental. I understand why they released this game, it was to target a much younger audience. Most preschoolers will probably not understand NFL2K, so this is...

Pros: everybody can play
Cons: need more levels to win

Pen Pen is cute. As you win in each race you get something for dress up. This makes it fun to try and see how many things you can get in one sitting. It is a game everyone can play and enjoy. It does need more levels you can win on. Other than that it is...

Pros: Fun for two (or more) , good for kids
Cons: Limited fun , boring for single player

You don't have to be on drugs to play this game but it probably helps !
When I bought this game it was intended to be for my wife , as she is into the 'cutesy' type of bizzare games , however we soon ended up playing some two player competitions and...
