"Pen Pen TriIcelon" is a video game created by one of the first Japanese companies to reveal Sega Dreamcast development. General Entertainment, otherwise known as LAND HO!, planned to create this strange racing game for the launch of Sega's new 128-bit console.

Gameplay

A TriIcelon is similar to the human triathlon. Tri-Ice-alons consist of three separate sporting styles in one game: running, sliding, and swimming. These three things combine to make a race where everyone competes for first place. Although no matter how good a Pen Pen is at one of these styles, they'll never win constantly unless they can perform well in all of them.

The player controls little penguin-like characters called Pen Pen, in a race consisting of the three separate sporting styles. Both the sliding and swimming parts are raced by tapping and holding the action button in a rhythmic motion to maintain a smooth flowing pace. The running section is controlled simply with the analogue stick, also with the ability to jump, and charge into other competitors.

The Pen Pen are said to live on a small world called Iced Planet, and was here that the strange alien race were first discovered. Since the closest animal on Earth they resemble is the Penguin, they were first given the name Pen Pen. The Pen Pen pretty much inhabit most of the planets surface and. It is believed they do in fact have their own language, but if so it is totally incomprehensible to humans. [From Issue #36 of Sega Saturn Magazine]

It was later discovered that they come in a variety of different shapes and sizes. Other types came from other planets to visit the Iced Planet. Six types have been discovered so far.

In a world of snow, ice and water, its not surprising to learn that the Pen Pen have mastered the arts of running, sliding and swimming, and always used to play about on an iced field.These creatures saw the Pen Pen and came up with an idea, and thus, the TriIcelon was born.This soon became the most popular sport on the Iced Planet. Pen Pens enjoy this sport everyday and never get bored of competing, but once a year they hold a grand TriIcelon race to determine the number one TriIcelon player.
