Now people can play a classic favorite wherever they go. Chip's Challenge is a very addictive puzzle game featuring Chip in a maze of traps and monsters.

Overview of the game
Chip is willing to do anything for Melinda the Mental Marvel, more than anything, because he wants to join Melinda's exclusive computer club, the Bit Busters. Finally Melinda has offered him membership, but on one condition! Chip must find his way from one end of Melinda's magical clubhouse to the other, picking up cosmic computer chips along the way.

If that sounds easy, then you've never been to Melinda's magical clubhouse. It's awesome inside, but tricky, and a little scary too. There are teleports, invisible walls, force floors, water traps, locked doors, and plenty of monsters. There's magic, mystery, and behind the scenes there is Melinda, keeping score on your progress and providing helpful hints.

As you succeed in helping Chip move through each level of the clubhouse, Melinda gives you a secret password that allows you to return. And Melinda rewards perseverance. If she thinks Chip has tried long enough and hard enough on a level, she'll let him sneak through to the next level. But it takes a lot of perseverance to impress her. How big is the clubhouse? 144 levels is the rumor. But some claim that Melinda is still building. In any case, it defies dimensions so don't get lost.

Public Alpha version available
A Public Alpha version is now available for download. This is a fully playable version. However, being an alpha release, not all features have been implemented. The only items on the title screen that work, are the "Play Game" and "Exit" options.

There is no sound implemented yet. Unfortunately, if you get stuck, you will either need to let time run out, or exit the game and start from the beginning. The major challenge so far, has been speed. This game has had to be redone and extremely optimized in order to run at a decent speed on PocketPC 2000 devices such as the E-125. Since I can't legally include the chips.dat file, and this isn't an original program, it will be freeware.

Note:
You will need to have GAPI 1.2 installed and the CHIPS.DAT file. CHIPS.DAT is included with the PC version of Chip's Challenge. If you don't own the game, CHIPS.DAT files can be obtained a couple different ways:
- You can go to The Chip's challenge Page and scroll down to the "Getting the game" section.
- You can go to chips_challenge Yahoo Group and download additional DAT files, which must be renamed to CHIPS.DAT.
