'''''Penguin Chat''''', commonly known as '''''PC''''' was an online MMOG game created by ''[[RocketSnail Games]]''. It was the successor of ''[[Experimental Penguins]]''.


==Gameplay==
A user could create a username and password and then log in to ''Penguin Chat''. Starting October 12th 2003, a user had the option to use a guest account with no specific password and enter a nickname for the account. There are 3 known rooms that a player could explore and meet other users. Players had the options to either use emotes, throw snowballs, tell jokes, dance or sit through a toolbar on the bottom of the screen. You would have to click in order to move from one place to another. Once a user was done playing, they would click the blue X button on the top right corner to disconnect from the server. This form of gameplay is very similar, almost identical, to the other installments of the ''Penguin Chat'' franchise.
