The seemingly endless variety of levels is what makes Chip's Challenge so addictive, since different levels require different strategies to finish. Some levels require doing things in a certain sequence; others have lots of possibilities but only one answer, and still others require precise timing and fast movement.
Most levels, however, emphasize quick thinking over reflexes, so anyone who is not blessed with lightning-fast reflexes shouldn't feel too intimidated. Last but not least, the interface in Chip's Challenge is extremely friendly, and encourages replayability. Chip has an unlimited number of lives, so you can redo a level as often as you want until you solve it. If you fail too often, the game will even generously let you skip the current level.
Best of all, the first eight levels are tutorials that gradually introduce new gameplay elements so that players will not be overwhelmed. Overall, this is one of the best puzzle games ever made, and a must-have for every puzzle gamer, especially experts who have frowned at easy games.
Two thumbs up! Thankfully, Chip's Challenge did make its way to PC as well as other platforms over the years. While this is a puzzle game it actually has more of a story than you would think.
You play as Chip who is a bit of a nerd, but he really wants to join the Bit Buster Club. The idea of Chip's Challenge is that Chip needs to collect all of the microchips on each level and then get to the exit. The game actually has close to levels so there is a lot of challenge to keep you here and occupied for a very long time. On the flip side of that, the levels despite being challenging are also quite small which is great as this is intended as a pickup and play style game.
So, you can fire it up, play a level or two and then put it back down. Each of the levels us full of hazards that Chip must deal with. These range from spiders to fire pits. Platforms and other moving things that you need to worry about. Each level puts forward a different challenge and it is up to you to figure out how to get all of the microchips and make it to the exit without dying.
Part of what can help you with this is your boots. Chip can put on different boots that will let him pass through certain obstructions. I really like how while the game at its core is a puzzle game, there are also some more action-packed levels for you to deal with as well.
