Happy Feet is an immersive adventure game filled with song and dance that puts the player in the “tap shoes†of Mumble, a young penguin born into a nation of singing Emperor Penguins. Unfortunately, Mumble can’t sing a note… but he can tap dance something fierce! Mumble’s inability to find his “Heart-Song” means that he can never truly belong, or more importantly, win the affection of his beloved Gloria (awww), one of the most sought-after penguins in the nation.
