The trilogy of Left Justified Studio's penguin gaming goodness ends with the main event; Jewels for the Emperor Penguin. The game is designed by Shane F. F. Carr and is illustrated by Josh Nelson and Kenzie Lindow.

In the game you take the role of the Penguin Guild, climbing icy cliffs with the aim of collecting the gems to build jewelry for the Emperor Penguin. The board is made of hex tiles – which means its very modular. Each tile has three kinds of rewards which are collected in different ways, meaning there's strategy at play here. For example you collect the bonus gems for sliding the ramp down the mountain – or the board.

And it wouldn't be a penguin board game without penguin meeples, now would it?

They're awesome – and you might recognize the last one, it's Jewels Verne! The numbers play a part, too; bigger penguins can bump smaller ones up the board, which opens up a whole new avenue for strategies and even penguin chain combos.

It's a really fun romp; super simple to get into but surprisingly deep thanks to the movement and gem collecting mechanics. Plus, penguins.

All the penguins in the trilogy can be purchased via Left Justified Studio's Prolific Games store.
