I have yet to read up on that game and find out for myself, I'm pretty sure you cant "beat" the game.

Wow I haven't played Rodent's Revenge in over 10 years. Somebody upload that shit.

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!
I downloaded it and the game was fun for 3 minutes.

Chip's Challenge was easily one of the best computer games ever. For almost as long as I've had a website, I've had a link to this page on it:
http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Du ... index.html

It's a site dedicated to CC.

Back in the day when I was a kid and played this game a *lot* I even had a song I made about Chip, I can't remember it now though :o(

I don't know if anyone else's version did this, but the one I had could use not just chip01.mid and chip02.mid, but any other midis for background music in the game, so mine also used to play canyon.mid, which was really awesome.

My other favorites from that pack were Jezzball, Tetravex, SkiFree, and Pipe Dream.

I remember playing a few of these games when I was a young 'un. Boy, did I try my best to avoid that Abomidable Snow Monster. I couldn't do a few of the puzzle games back then, I didn't have the smarts to complete them back then. :)

Fuji Golf (or w/e its called) ftw

[Mosheddy]

y'all need to ditch this shit and get playing some nanaca crash

bet nobody can beat my record of 19000 odd distance

I vaguely remember most of those games, but most of them I haven't played in ages besides Freecell and Tetris (well, clones of Tetris). Chip's Challenge, OTOH, I had a copy of until a few years ago when the floppy disk it was on died, and then recently re-acquired (in reaction to this thread).
There's also a clone called Tile World that seems to play identically as long as you don't want to navigate by mouse, and has (IMO) better graphics. You can download it with a level set created by Chips fans as an extension to the original program, but you can't get the original levels (at least not from them), you need to copy them over from a real copy of CC.

edit: I fail at BBcode. I tried to make the link with HTML, and then didn't think to preview.

I found out aboutthe SKIFREE snowmonster, it just chases you until it catches you. So there is not really any way to win.

Hm, that what I thought...or else the game would be endless.


BTW did you know you can actually ski up from the beginning...try it!
