Chip's Challenge 1

Before Chip can join the Bit Busters computer club and hang out with the girl of his dreams, Melinda the Mental Marvel, he must solve all 144 challenging puzzles. Your bird's-eye view can help Chip rush through the puzzles and mazes before he's deleted by monsters, traps and the passage of time.

“Alas I was not able to defeat all of Chip's Challenge. It is possibly the single most frustrating game I've ever had the pleasure of playing. Awesome game. 7/10”
