Casual iOS Angry Birds-worrier Air Penguin gets Polar Bear character in update

Gamevil's bird-based casual game Air Penguin - one of many ousted contenders for the 'next Angry Birds' title - has been updated with a new character.

The Polar Bear can use his fearsome paws to bat away crabs, seals, and swordfish. The downside of this awesome power is his enormous weight, limiting the time he can spend on ice floes.

The update also comes with 50 free fish - a purchasable in-game commodity that allows you to buy power-ups to make progress easier.

Air Penguin involves tilting your iOS device to steer a penguin that's bouncing over ice floes trying to find his family. You can download it now for 59p/99c using the iTunes link below.
