Evaluation

PENGUIN HOTEL -Chapter 1- is a free-to-play horror adventure game that launched on October 31, 2024. The store description labeled it as Chapter 1 of a series, with Chapter 2 promised for the future. That commitment was fulfilled: the Penguin Hotel 2 store page went live on December 3, 2024, the sequel launched on March 28, 2025, and a Chapter 2 demo followed on April 23, 2025. To mark the sequel's release, Chapter 1 was made free as of March 25, 2025. Chapter 1 itself received steady post-launch updates through early 2025 — difficulty adjustments, gamepad support, brightness and sync options, and Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese language support — with the last notable update being the language addition on April 9, 2025. With the sequel now out as its own product and no further content announced for Chapter 1, this episode is complete.

About this game

Synopsis.

Many people have been invited to celebrate the Penguin Hotel's 18th anniversary. You are one of them.

But no one could have predicted it. No one expected it to turn out that way...

Freeze Camera

This camera is a wonder. It can trap the subject inside the picture.

Use this camera to solve mysteries and fight threats. Of course, you can also use it normally.

Big Pen

One of the characters in this hotel. He is a robot, so he doesn't move at night...

Not a fan of horror?

Want to enjoy the world and the story!

We try to create games that both those who are good at horror games and those who are not good at horror games can enjoy.

Series

There is no ending branch.

This game is Chapter 1. Chapter 2 will be available in the future.
