In order to become a member, Chip must navigate through 148 challenging puzzles, using his wit and strategic thinking to overcome obstacles and enemies along the way.
The game is known for its block-pushing puzzles, which require players to strategically move blocks to complete each level. This, coupled with dodging enemies and the option to skip to the next level if needed, keeps players on their toes and provides hours of fun and entertainment.
