Default Mystery Penguin
Recently, i have herd rumors of a Penguin coming to our simmys towns. Anyone know anything about this, other than it appears on winter.

What does it do?
How does it benifit our sims?
How does it *the opposit to benifit* our sims?
Why does it appear?
How does it appear?

Anyother thoughts or suggestions to explain this mysterious creature?!??

Maxis said something about if you leave fish out it comes. Also, they said that they talk to snowmen or something.

lol. yes that was one freaky thing. i loved it how it ate the honey but got attacked and ran away. Good times.


But somewhat i hope it is not like claire the bear, we are sims 2 now not the olden days, we should be hoping for more from our new age of sims :P

loved my speech, didn't u?

Here's all the stuff about the penguin:

-appears during winter (I think a site said fall too, but that would be weird)
-eats fish left on the ground, especially the best fish you can catch in the game
-will try to talk to snowmen (makes sense a little bit)
-sims can either give the penguin a pat on the head or shoo it
-penguins don't stay on the lot for very long

I do remember Maxis saying that the penguin has no real purpose other than those things. Unfortunately the penguin cannot be kept as a pet, darn!

There is a shot of the penguin here. This is the only picture I've seen -- has anyone else found any other ones? It's too cute. :D

I think it appears when you make hot chocolate - think I read that on one of the fansite reviews.

Anyone knows what strange type of sim there would be in this EP?
I mean, base game: aliens
University: zombies
Nightlife: vampires
OFB: robots
Pets: werewolves
I am wondering about Seasons...

Ooooh! Thank you! A sort of sim with grass and flowers everywhere?

A plant sim is one that has gone... overboard... with fertilizers and pesticides on their plants. They start to take effect... the cure is available through the garden club, I think. *back on topic* I just saw the penguin and it is SOOO cute! I can't wait to see it in my game! :D

Ciao,

I see that "Outsider" has posted a very nice picture of the penguin as seen on simsfantastic2, but if you want to see the article, follow the link here.

Also, for the plantisim, if you read the preview from TSR here, you can see what they look like.

I'm very excited.

Until we shrink down the Mesh and exchange it for, per say, a Parrot GMDC....Mwahahahahah.

I would guess there will be a lot of work done to see if that's hackable though, so don't give up hope of pet penguins one day.
