Club Penguin History

Club Penguin History

Club penguin first started out as Penguin chat which what made by Rocketsnail (now Rsnail). In penguin chat there was only a dance club, a boiler room, and the coffee shop(see pictures at bottom of page). Both the coffee shop and Dance Club didnt have upper levels and there was no bean counter game. The gift shop was used to buy Penguin Chat merchandise. The dance club played a lot of different songs back then. The boiler room was very secret way more then it is today. Instead of being in the top right corner it was in the bottom left. Back then you could be a ninja and many times Ninjas met there because it was so secret. Then later the snow forts came(see pictures at bottom of page). At first it was just a white room with a sign that said “coming soon” then later you could go up to the sign then to a construction site with Snow Cats which are like bulldozers. Then they started to make Club Penguin. They let people test Club Penguin and find bugs these people were called beta testers. At the end they had a beta party where they gave out beta hats which are party hats that are yellow and pink. Then on October 25, 2005 Club Penguin was launched.
