Experimental Penguins

Experimental Penguins is an old game from the year 2000, which was believed to have started Club Penguin. It was a multiplayer game/chat, similar to Club Penguin and Penguin Chat 3, and it was made around the time of Rocketsnail Games. Experimental Penguins was the original Penguin Chat.



Gameplay
Players would join as a normal blue penguin, while in a different edition of Experimental Penguins, you would be able to have a santa hat on. Developers would get a Snow Trekker to roam around the island.

History
Experimental Penguins only stayed up for a few months, but it got several awards. It closed down, and then Penguin Chat came along. During Experimental Penguins, there was a game being worked on for it called Snowblasters. The game was never finished before they put up Penguin Chat.

Ballistic Biscuit reference
In February 2000, in the game Ballistic Biscuit (now known as Hydro Hopper in Club Penguin) a penguin from Experimental Penguins could be seen in the boat during the game.
