It's a platformer similar to Super Mario Bros if that's your cup of tea, can't really think of much else.

It's not on Switch but this would be a good port...

I just played through SokoPenguin today. It's a block-pushing puzzle game as the name implies, but it's not literally sokoban, it's got its own simple mechanics (you need to get to the igloo to exit the level, and apart from the few first levels you need to get one power block onto one power square to open the bridge to the igloo). There's a handful of additional mechanics that are added in later - considering that you're a penguin in a snowy environment, it's relatively late into the game until slidey ice is introduced
There's a hundred levels, the challenge ramps up very slowly and never gets super challenging, especially compared to real sokoban, so quite a lot of the levels will feel fairly trivial difficulty if you're familiar with block-pushing puzzles, but it's still pleasant enough to work your way through them as a cute pixel penguin.
Presentation is pretty minimal, menus are super basic text, but the game looks cute enough and the music is pleasant and chill.
I checked the price, for 4 and a half quid it might feel a bit short (took me almost exactly two hours apparently), half that could be more reasonable, but if you opt for the 100% discount approach then it's certainly worth a quick play for puzzle/penguin fans.

Still I doubt it's the best penguin game on Switch, so more suggestions please!
