The '''penguinPenguin''' is an [[NPC]] introduced in ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons]]''. He can appear on a lot in any season, but is more likely to appear in Winter. The odds of the penguin appearing on the lot are higher if:
*There are fish placed on the lot, either on the ground or mounted.
*It's snowing, and there is snow on the ground.
Line 15 ⟶ 19:
There are several things a penguin can do:
*If there are any fish placed on the ground, it can eat up to two during the visit.
*If there's heavy snow accumulation, it can slide around the lot.
*It is attracted to wall mounted fish, and will even attempt to jump up to them. It won't be able to reach them, though; Sim penguins, like real-life penguins, cannot fly.
*It talks to any snowman, scarecrow, or [[Weathernaught 57X]] it encounters, even if the snowman is broken.
*The penguin may wander into the house and out again.
*If there's heavy snow accumulation, it can slide around the lot.
*The penguin might pee on the lawn.
 
Sims can pet it, which increases their [[social]] motive, or shoo it from the lot. Sometimes, if a Sim pets it, it will get nervous and pee while the Sim is still petting it. There is a glitch where a Sim can get a memory of meeting NPC: Penguin.
 
Despite having the appearance of a penguin, an inspection with [[Package editor#SimPE|SimPE]] concludes that it is treated by the game as a Sim. However it is not recommended to change the penguin's species, or tamper with it in any way or form, as this can cause [[Game guide:Avoiding corruption|game corruption]].
The penguin is also featured in [[The Sims Castaway Stories]], though that may seem strange, given that The Sims Castaway Stories takes place on a tropical island. They will appear occasionally on the lot briefly, and then they will disappear. Sims cannot interact with them. Also, drinking the '''Penguin Party''' [[potion]] will make the drinker be surrounded by penguins and get their [[social]] need boosted. The penguins will slowly fade away.
 
If the Penguin is added to a playable household with [[cheats]] or mods, it will have the appearance of a female, despite being a male, which can be proven by changing the Penguin's appearance with the [[NPC and Townie Maker]]. However this is strongly '''NOT''' recommended, as it can cause game corruption.
 
The Penguin is controlled by an NPC named ''NPC - Penguin''; this Penguin NPC is invisible, and is similar to other invisible NPCs that control movable objects, such as the remote-controlled car.
