Club Penguin
massively multiplayer online game
Club Penguin is a massively multiplayer online game for children developed by New Horizon Interactive. Using cartoon penguin avatars players converse, play minigames, and participate in other activities with one another in a snow-covered virtual world. Having completed beta-testing, Club Penguin was made available to the general public on October 24, 2005 and has since expanded into a large online community.

Club Penguin shares similarities with other popular online environments like RuneScape and Habbo Hotel. Though open to users of all ages, Club Penguin is designed for children ages eight to 14 and qualified for the Better Business Bureau - Kid's Privacy Seal of Approval. Club Penguin was also awarded the "Editors Choice" award from Children's Technology Review Magazine.
An online merchandise shop opened on the Club Penguin website in August 2006, selling stuffed puffles and T-shirts. Keychains, gift cards, and more shirts were added on November 7, 2006.
Though the game can be played for free, many of the features are not
available unless a subscription is purchased.
This project
began January 26, 2007 with the intent of helping newcomers find their way around
Club Penguin. To become a tour guide, a penguin must be at least 45 days old and
have had no more than one ban (or sufficiently good behavior after more bans).
Being a member is not required. To apply, one goes to the Tour Booth in the Plaza
and takes a quiz. The eight-question quiz tests one's knowledge such as where
things are located, puffle facts, game play, and so forth. Answering seven out
of the eight questions correctly wins a tour guide hat. Only those who have passed
the test and have the hat are official tour guides.
Club Penguin is divided into several rooms.
Each player is provided with
an igloo for a home. Members have a option of opening their igloo so other penguins
access it via a map. Members may also decorate their igloos with items bought
with money earned by playing mini-games.
Many game locations can be accessed
by clicking on the Club Penguin map. Some places, such as the Attic, are reached
by clicking its general area on the map then walking the penguin to the specific
location. Other places, such as Rockhopper's Ship, Migrator, are only available
on certain days.
Players who use profanity are often punished by an automatic 24 hour ban, although not all vulgar language results in an immediate ban. After being caught using profane language on a second or third occasion, players may be banned for 72 hours. Players caught hacking Club Penguin are banned for a much longer time period. After 3 to 5 bans, a player is banned indefinitely from the game. If someone tries to log in to Club Penguin as a famous player account (such as Rockhopper or Billybob), any password will result in a message a account is banned with a "Forever" expiration.
