- “With solid, polished gameplay, it's suitable for any age or skill level.”

- “Absolutely the most cutting edge graphics I've ever experienced in my life.”
- “Graphics 10/10 - using RTX shaders and Unreal Engine 5 to boost their graphics, it makes a stunning game.”
- “There is no good way to say this: as the game feels and plays like a 90s LAN arcade, it looks like one of those as well; the overall graphics are bad, but what is even worse is the repetition of environmental items. Moving from one map to another is no big deal as they all look and feel the same, and the only thing that differentiates one from another is the position of certain objects on that map.”
- “The graphics are very simple.”
- “Okay game with cute graphics, all in all it's nothing much.”

The game's story has received mixed reviews, with many praising its depth and character development, likening it to a gritty narrative that explores themes of survival and conflict among penguin tribes. Some players found the lore intriguing and humorous, while others criticized the lack of expansion and perceived it as minimalistic. Overall, the story is seen as a standout feature, with some reviewers rating it highly compared to other popular titles.
- “This game's beautiful visuals and amazing profound story.”
- “The story is absolutely flawless; I made deep connections with the characters throughout the impressively long story.”
- “It had a compelling storyline, action-packed gameplay, amazing character development, and the most beautiful plot twist.”
- “There is no story here; Penguins Arena is pure arcade. Even though the days of minimalistic maps and limited abilities are long gone, this is the kind of game that still manages to keep you entertained for a while even in the absence of modern-day game concepts.”
- “From the weirdly dark backstory to the slippery controls, to the fact that I've never once seen another human playing this online and had to play exclusively against NPCs.”
- “I like to imagine this as what happened to the real Club Penguin after the shutdown. After the Disney nuke, the original continent was destroyed with only a few icebergs remaining inhabitable. The surviving penguins formed tribes based on skin colors to fight over the remaining territory with their makeshift weapons.”

The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players finding it catchy and uplifting, while others criticize it for being repetitive and annoying. Many users note that there are only a few tracks, leading to boredom over time, and suggest playing with personal music in the background instead. Overall, while the soundtrack can enhance the experience for some, it may detract from enjoyment for others due to its limited variety and audio design issues.
- “The enchanting music and fantastic gameplay made everything wretched in my horrible excuse for a life turn around as soon as I got my hands on those sticks, bro I swear.”
- “My eardrums were beating along to the addicting tunes; I could feel their love for the song, almost as if this song was created just for the sole purpose of being heard by them.”
- “This game is addictive, comical, simple, yet fun, with catchy music that can easily get stuck in your head for hours, even when you first wake up in the morning.”
- “The music is okay, but there's only one track and it gets boring quickly.”
- “The audio design is also not that good; the soundtrack is really annoying and most of the time I turn it off when I start playing.”
- “Audio effects are just as bad as the visuals, with sounds missing modern notions such as tonality or pitch. You will probably play this one with your music in the background; that is probably the best way to go since the soundtrack is just as annoying, with the same song playing over and over again until you eventually grow tired of it and stop noticing it at all.”
