This is a continuation of the walkthrough for [[Chip's Challenge Level Pack 2]]. Levels 81 (Just Enough) through 100 (Torch) will be discussed on this page.
Levels 81 (''Just Enough'') through 100 (''Torch'') will be discussed on this page.


==Level 81: Just Enough==
==Level 81: ''Just Enough''==
Only six blocks can be cloned before the teeth monster will escape from the line of toggle walls, which is why there are "just enough" blocks to do the job.
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Just Enough.png|thumb|right|Level 81, time limit 500, no chips. You think so? It looks like not enough work was done!]]
Only four blocks can be cloned before the teeth will escape from the line of toggle walls, which is why there are "just enough" blocks to do the job.


Clone five blocks, one at a time, and push them each onto the ice under the cloner, then follow them to five water spaces. The very last usable block will drop into the teleport just past the fifth water; follow it through, then step UL and move this block ''onto'' the suction boots with the SE thin wall under them. Due to there being three tiles on the same square, the thin wall will disappear. This bug allowed the previous record of 318 to be stretched to 321, then immediately to 322, before I happened to jump in and perfect the route to 323, a record that stands today.
Move the first cloned block R 2U 5R D, then the second R 2U 6R 2D onto the ice, and use the other block to stick it in the ice. As this area was not walled off, this ice rink will allow Chip to collect two of the blocks in this area instead of taking them one apiece, also cutting the return trips drastically. Collect a third block, move it R 2U 5R D as well, and lock a second block into the ice in the same way. Clone block four and use a ''spring step'' to push the block R, which alters the slide delay. To avoid another delay, do not touch the red button, which would release the teeth eventually onto the force floor.


Anyways, follow the block and pick up the suction boot, then step RDL to slide all the way to the west. Clone a glider, step 2U, and slide onto the force floors, awaiting the explosion. When the glider destroys the bomb, step DL to slide to the exit. 323 seconds are just enough.
Move the block onto the ice strip, wait 2.5 moves, and then follow it. Continue sliding R, which will pick up the first block, then move D and then R back to the original space, and R to collect the second sliding block. Go back to the start to collect the fourth block, then carry it all the way through to the teleport and step UL, and now move this block ''onto'' the suction boots with the thin wall under them.


==Level 82: The Block Stops Here==
As there are three tiles on the same square, the thin wall will disappear. This was a key development in the level's route, but eventually the bust erased much of the importance. Collect the suction boots, then step RDL to slide all the way to the west, and clone a glider and slide onto the force floors, awaiting the explosion. When the glider destroys the bomb, slide to the exit. 346 seconds are just enough.
Run all the way to the bottom of the level, through the teleport, and then circle alternately counterclockwise and clockwise through the four rooms, entering each teleport from the south, to get the 11 chips in each of the four rooms. Once again, enter from the south to return to the south-west corner of the level, then run 8R to position the loose block.

==Level 82: ''The Block Stops Here''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 The Block Stops Here.png|thumb|right|Level 82, time limit 300, 58 chips. This town ain't big enough for an actually ''funny'' caption.]]
In ''The Block Stops Here'', Chip's major challenge is to choose between seven areas with red buttons in them, six of which are deadly!


Step on the entrance to all the chips once, revealing a bomb in each of them, in the order 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 6. Touch the button in the sixth alcove '''only''', which will detonate all the bombs in turn, then run west and nudge the loose block L before collecting the remaining chips from left to right.
Run all the way to the southwest teleport and then circle alternately counterclockwise and clockwise through the four rooms, moving U into each teleport, to get the 11 chips in each of the four rooms. Once again, enter from the south to return to the southwest block pyramid, then run 8R to position the loose block.


Get in the two-space gap between the gliders and run 5RUR2D3RL2UL, which allows one of the gliders to touch the toggle button for you as you run straight up to the north-east corner with the exit. The clock stops here at 253.

The clock stops here at 253.

==Level 83: ''Warehouse I''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Warehouse I.png|thumb|right|Level 83, time limit 600, no chips. Apparently, the blocks ''start'' here!]]
This Warehouse is both smaller and shorter than the behemoth successor located at slot 122. The very tight dimensions, however, make precise maneuvers mandatory to complete the level, and to get the 388 bold time, there must be no mistakes. The usual method of block numbering is divided into the four areas of ''Warehouse I''; Chip starts in room 4.


==Level 83: Warehouse I==
Enter the teleport, run down, and move block 4 in room 1 2D. Move block 5 U 3R to join in room 2, then block 6 in this room 2UR, and block 5 U, which allows for some room. In room 1, push blocks 3 and 2 D and 2D, allowing you to use block 2 in room 4 (D 2R 3D R) and block 3 (U 2R). Now, in room 2, use block 2 on the bombs. With the path to the bombs open, the remainder of the level involves untangling the mess of blocks in the other rooms.
This Warehouse is both smaller and shorter than the behemoth successor located at slot 122. The very tight dimensions, however, make precise maneuvers mandatory to complete the level, and to get the 388 bold time, there must be no mistakes.


Enter the teleport, run down, and move the first block in the two-block barrier below 2D. Resume RULU3RD2R2ULUR3DLU3L2ULD, which allows you to move the block on top of the teleport 2D as well. Teleport back to room 1 and move the block just above you into the teleport, then continue RUR3DLDR to clear this block out of the way. Return to room 1 and now follow the block just to the south into the teleport, then nudge D and send this block into the bombs. With both of the blocks located next to the teleport gone, you can shove the block into the first bomb. With the path to the bombs open, the remainder of the level involves untangling the mess of blocks in the other rooms.
Start with blocks 3 and 4 in room 1, then the block between the warehouse rooms, and then move the block on the right wall of room 1 through and D, to get ready to explode it. First, collect block 1 here and teleport it through, and afterwards, follow with block 1 from room 1 in the same way, ''then'' using the remaining block in room 1. With room 1 cleared out entirely, move to room 2. Seven blocks are currently in here; use blocks 6, 5, 4, 2, and then 3, leaving only 1 and 7 which are currently unusable. To allow this, Chip must clear out room 3.


Start with the two blocks on the bottom of the left wall in room 2, then the block blocking the entrance to the next room in the warehouse, and then take the block on the right wall of room 2. Before actually pushing the block down a space and west to the bombs, steal the block on the top of the room and move it 3D, ''then'' use the other block. Follow the first block back into the teleport and step UR3UL3DRDL (teleport), and use this block. This leaves you with one block on the east wall of room 2; shove it into room 3, then take it back out to the bombs again. With room 2 cleared out entirely, begin attacking room 3.
Knock the block lodged in the entrance 2R 2D, then use what is now block 2 and then block 1. When moving block 1 out, Chip will be heading north towards block 1 in room 2; move this 2D before continuing with the push. Now, take block 1 out of room 2, then follow with block 4 from room 4, and similarly, move block 7 in room 2 4U across the east wall as you circle behind block 4. Now, simply take room 2's block and then room 4's remaining block into oblivion, and finish the level to fork-lift 388 seconds into your stock.

==Level 84: ''Crypts of Aganorak''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Crypts of Aganorak.png|thumb|right|Level 84, time limit 500, 40 chips. Whatever it is, I'm sure I don't want to visit it!]]
No, I don't know what ''AGANORAK'' is; only the level owner does, and I haven't been successful in finding out even from him. Based on the apparent fictional locations in the levelset, it's probably just made up.


Begin with the block in the south-west corner, then take the east block hanging to the top of the room's entrance, and follow with the west block. This leaves three blocks at the top and one at the bottom; shove the block on the far left 2U, circle behind it, and use it. Follow this up with the block in the middle, and with only blocks on the far east wall left in room 3, dive into room 4.
Slide south through the teleport, then move up two rows and run west to pilfer the red key. Run to the very top of the level to escape the ball juggernaut, then slide UD through the teleport and enter the red lock to the east, which leads to a blue wall maze containing fire boots and a section of chips. Well? Take both!


Knock the block lodged in the entrance 2R2D, then use the block to the south and follow this up by using the remaining block in room 4. At this point, you have only two blocks on the east walls of room 3 and room 1. Use the two blocks in room 1 (take time to shove the block on the bottom of room 3 4U when you circle behind one of them) and then shove this block, now in front of room 4's entrance, into room 4 and back out. When it reaches the west wall of room 3, step 3UR2D to prepare the last remaining block for use, and continue pushing the other block. Return and send the last block into oblivion, and finish the level to fork-lift 388 seconds into your stock.
When you emerge from this maze, slide LRL through the teleport (slightly faster than just walking) and run south into the fire maze. Move through the rooms LUL 3D RURDRUL, then return to the teleport and step up into it to enter the bug area. With perfect boosting to date, including this one, you can bust directly through the blue lock and slip just past the bug. You can to take the goodies in most any order; you can dive into the center after getting 1, 2, 3, or even all 4 of the corner chips. Go back through the teleport, then zip east...and here's where you might need a bit of assistance from Lady Luck.


==Level 84: Crypts of Aganorak==
There are 4 chips on the left, and 9 chips and flippers on the right. You can afford to lose as many as four moves without loss of a second, but try to get back as soon as possible. Return to the start room, then circle around the teleport and enter from the east to swim to the last chip. Slide RL, pass the chip socket, and turn ''east'' (as said by the hint in the fire maze), which leads to a block with a buried exit, while the other block has fire under it! Inside the crypt? A treasure worth 426 seconds.
No, I don't know what "AGANORAK" means; only the level owner does, and I haven't been successful in finding out even from him.

==Level 85: ''Follow the Glacier Brick Road''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Follow the Glacier Brick Road.png|thumb|right|Level 85, time limit 350, 21 chips. '''SURRENDER MELINDA''' (?)]]
Like Mads' Rush II, which can take upwards of 1,000 attempts, you could be spending an entire week, or maybe a month, or your whole life, trying to collect this bold. It may be that a significant slice of the highest level of Chipsters will ''never'' collect this bold. At this writing, there were only four or five that did, me included.


Slide south through the teleport, then move up two rows and run west to pilfer the red key. Run to the very top of the level and wait, then straddle the top to escape the ball juggernaut. Continue UD through the teleport, then RUR (red door) 2RU4RDRD2R2UR. At this point, you have a choice of moving up into a chip maze, or R3D2R2UR to get a fire boot. Well? Take both. :)
This is the route:
 
* 3R DR 2D L (LU) DRD 2L 3D R (spot ''A'') 4D URU 2R 2D (2L 2D) RDL 2R 2D LD 2L U, then backtrack all the way to spot ''A''.
 
* D 4R 2U R (2U 2L U 2R) DR 3D (spot ''B'') 2D (2L U 2L) DRDRD (2L DR) 2R 2D (3R UL) DR 2L 4D 2R D 3R (this is the toughest section) 2U (LU) 2R (2R U) 2U R 3L URUR, and decamp to spot ''B''.
 
* 5R 2D (L, RD 3R 2U 3R DL) and 3U 2R (2D 2R 2U [2U], RD 2R), and follow the visible walls to the exit.


When you emerge from this maze, slide LRL through the teleport and run south into the fire maze. Move through the rooms LUL3D (ignore the hint, you won't need it if you're listening to me!) RURDRUL, then return to the teleport and step up into it to enter the lower right area. If you were alert, you took that boost - if you were perfect, you can bust directly through the blue door and slip just past the bee. You're pretty much free to take the goodies in any fashion you choose - dive into the center after getting 1, 2, 3, or even all 4 of the corner chips. Go back through the teleport, then zip east...and here's where you might need a bit of assistance from Lady Luck.
Now, the crunch? The top score of 306 requires 72 out of 72 boosts! That isn't hard except for the fact that several of the important sections require combination boosts with two spaces in between each ice square (such as the 5R run in the "toughest section"), which are tough to do once, and with more than one in a row, it is a huge feat. And there's ''twelve'' of these double boosts in the level. Sometimes they even intersect to make a ''triple'' boost.


There's 4 chips on the left, and 9 chips and flippers on the right. You can afford to lose as many as four moves without loss of a second, but try to get back as soon as possible. Return to the start room, then circle around the teleport and enter from the east to swim to the last chip. Slide RL, pass the chip socket, and turn ''east'' (as said by the hint in the fire maze), which leads to a block with a buried exit, while the other block has fire under it! Inside the crypt? A treasure worth 426 seconds.
The more you play it, the easier it gets. All I can say is to move the interchangeable sections around a bit to your needs, and make sure you practice the southeast corner above all!

==Level 86: ''Creative One-Ways''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Creative One-Ways.png|thumb|right|Level 86, time limit 350, no chips. Is going one way ever creative?]]
Yes, yes, ''Creative One-Ways'' deserves its name. While it is now a common format, this level was one of the first to use the one-way street. Your goal in this level is to reach the end of the one-ways and take the green key, then use that key to pass by the obstacles blocking the way back, and then finally to use it to get to the exit, which is inaccessible at this point. You'll want to use odd step to save an extra move.


==Level 85: Follow the Glacier Brick Road==
Run past the balls, pass the safe block, and sneak past the gliders and tanks to an ice rink. Follow the fireball clones north to the blue button, then step LDLU 2R to sneak past the tank. Although you probably don't wish to, you have to start cloning the walkers; escape that room and walk past the thief to the bouncing ball below. Wait, then take the longer slide to the south and run past the clone blocks to another thief, and turn left. Wait on this ball to bounce all the way west, then dive into the niche on the right and sneak past the ball as it bounces back west. The final obstacle is the bug below; after he hits the block, push and dodge it, then walk behind him to take the green key. Now it switches directions!
Well, I don't know how to express this: This is the first bold that you could seriously be spending an entire week, or maybe a month, or your whole life, trying to collect. It may be that a significant slice of the highest level of Chipsters will '''never''' collect this bold. At press time, there were only four or five that did, me included.


This is the route:
Wait for the bug to clear away from the green lock, as you can't open it quick enough to be released, then open it and wait to be released from the trap, at which point you go back to the west and take the blue key. Use this blue key to avoid the ball at the top, and then move to the block room in the center.
 
Open the lock at the top to clone a block, then shove the block DL [1] U 2L U into the water, and approach the ice room. Take the yellow key, open its lock, shove the block L to the corner, and then step DR 2U 2R U to escape the room. Get the red key and use it to enter the passageway to the far right; touch all but the last dirt, then emerge back out, having trapped the teeth, and return to the walker room.
 
Unlock the green button and wait for the walkers to stop, then pass through the tank again and get the suction boots. The deadline for the bold is 270.0 at this point; this is unlikely but not uncommon. Use these to stand on the force floors, which avoids the fireballs, then either take the ice skates and skate to the blue button, touching it twice, or slide to the button and use a DR quick boost to escape the tanks; neither route is any quicker.
 
Wait for the bigger gap in the gliders, then jump down to get the flippers. Swim back to the start, get the fire boots, and push the hot block R, which will allow you to free the exit. Go to the bottom and teleport RLRLRL, which allows Chip to use the block against the last two balls, so that you can (finally!) get to that nagging exit. You score 249 if your luck is good enough; keep trying. Remember that odd step will be a help.
{{-}}
==Level 87: ''The Walker Machine''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 The Walker Machine.png|thumb|right|Level 87, time limit 50, 67 chips. So walkers still live in castles?]]
''The Walker Machine'' is the spiritual sequel to ''Jumping Swarm'' from CC1. While the original has received a reputation for being extremely hard, that is because the majority of those players don't have a map, which causes them to spend more time looking for the chips and more walkers come into the level. However, ''The Walker Machine'' is a lot smaller, there is water in play, and the chips under blue walls format allows for many routes just like ''Jumping Swarm''. This is just one of many routes through the level that will achieve 20.8:
 
* RDU 2D LRL D 2R 2L 3U L 3D R 3U L 3D L 3U 2L D 2R U (danger!) 2L DRDRDLULDRLU 2L DRUDL 3U D, clearing the entire south area.
 
* 4U RL 2D RURDLURUR 2D RURDLURURL 2D RU 3R D 3L URD 2R (center area gone) ULULU 2R DR 3L U 2R UR (2U) 2L (2U) 2L URDLU. Now you have all the chips, so get to that exit up there!
{{-}}
==Level 88: ''Don't Get Lost''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Don't Get Lost.png|thumb|right|Level 88, time limit 400, 12 chips. ''Why'' do you need ''three'' hints, a level title and this guide to tell you not to get lost?]]
Each of the ten sections of ''Don't Get Lost'' contain some chips guarded by pink ball clone machines and other obstacles. Don't get lost!
 
Wait [2] to take the first chip, then wait two moves to join the ball stream. Teleport down to room 2 and wait two to join this stream, then drop to the bottom and take the chip in the corner. To get to the south of the teleport, move the block aside, then jump into it and move east to another ball stream. Wait two moves again, then take the flippers and chip to the west. With flippers, you can swim through the center shortcut, then go west to room 4. Continue to spiral through the water spaces and wait for the next clone, then teleport to room 5 and pass this stream to the south for another chip. Wait two moves, then cut across the stream again and take a "shortcut" to room 6 by sliding RL.


* 3RDR2D2LUDRD2L3DR4DURU2R2D2L2D2U3RDL2R2DLD2LU, then backtrack all the way to the chip close to the north-west corner.
Continue to hold the west key, then join this next stream in time, take the flippers and chip, and swim west to another chip. Take another teleport west, join this stream, and temporarily divert north to slide on the force floor and take the chip before going back to the stream. Wait two to join, then break north and get the fire boots to allow Chip to teleport west to room 8. First, take the chip at the top, then return to the center of the room and zigzag across to the teleport, waiting two moves for the stream at each turn. This is the one chip that is not required.


* D4R2UR2U2LU2R2LD2R3DR5D2LU2L2RD2RDRDRD2LDRLU4R2D3RULRD3LDR2L4D2RD3R (this is the toughest section) 2ULUD5RUD2L2UR3LURURLDLD2R2D2L2D. Continue to backtrack all the way to where you run out of visible pop-up walls.
Stop for one move before you run smack into the existing stream in room 9, then slide around the force floors, either dropping one move and boosting or not using the boosting, to another chip on the east. Circle again, then break off at the teleport to room 10. Approach the chip on the top from the right, then walk to the final chip and up to the exit. Your 317 seconds have been found again!
{{-}}
==Level 89: ''The Ghetto Defender''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 The Ghetto Defender.png|thumb|right|Level 89, time limit 450, 10 chips. So is the ghetto that water pool? ...well, I guess there ''is'' one glider in this level...]]
Don't just stand there, move! Step 2U R 2U 4R to sneak past the teeth, using even step, then run all the way down to fire boots, east to a green key, and 2U 6L 4U to safety.


* ULUL3U5R2DL2RD3R2U3RDL. Backtrack up to the visible pop-up walls, then continue U2R2D2R4U2DRD2RDU2LUL2D2L3U and follow the visible pop-up walls to the exit.
Pass through the glider and balls, take the level's ten chips, and shove blocks 6, 5 and 3 into the water to reach the flippers. However, since they are not required anywhere else and will not reach the yellow key safely, ''don't take them!'' If you do, you lose some crucial time. Sneak past the walker and the two gravel spaces, and take the upper ice slide past some bouncing balls to reach one final important section.


Now, the crunch? The top score of 306 requires 72 out of 72 boosts! That isn't hard except for the fact that several of the important sections require combination boosts with two spaces in between each ice square (such as the 5R move in the "toughest section" label), which are tough to do once, and with more than one in a row, it is a huge feat. And there's ''twelve'' of these double boosts in the level. Sometimes they even intersect to make a ''triple'' boost.
From the gravel, run 5L4U or any other route necessary to avoid the monsters without losing time, as there is a walker in this room. Sneak back out of the room, past the bouncing balls, and through the yellow lock, which leads to an exit with a trap in front of it. However, you can just ''barely'' make it off into the exit to score a time of 381. This was the first world record time I explicitly developed a route for; the previous record was 379 and took the unnecessary flippers, wasting enough time to not make it off the trap.


The more you play it, the easier it gets. All I can say is to move the interchangeable sections around a bit to your needs, and make sure you practice the south-east corner above all!
Also note that the section to the west of the start is a trap because of the hidden wall; while there are ten chips there, Chip can collect the required ten faster on his normal route, and Chip can't escape this area due to the teeth.
{{-}}
==Level 90: ''Marjolaine's Maze''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Marjolaine's Maze.png|thumb|right|Level 90, time limit 280, 13 chips. We're sorry, the caption for this level is property of Marjolaine.]]
''Marjolaine's Maze'' is a maze, although it is composed of several disparate sections with a couple of secret shortcuts.


==Level 86: Creative One-Ways==
Pass the thief to the south, then teleport DUD to take a slightly shorter route through the maze, also collecting a blue key. Collect everything but the red key, then slide UDU through the teleport. Because the red lock blocks Chip, this slide takes Chip back to the blue key, where he can jump over the ice corner and unlock the fire boots. Wind back through the maze to 13 blocks; eight of them are actually clone blocks. Blocks 1, 10, 11, 12 and 13 are movable, but block 1 is unusable.
It's definitely creative, and you do have only one way of moving at all times. Your goal in this level is to reach the end of the one-way street and take the green key, then use that key to pass by the obstacles blocking the way back, and then finally to use it to get to the exit, which is inaccessible at this point. You'll want to use odd-step to save an extra move.


Run past the balls, nudge the lower block onto the ice, and sneak past the gliders and tanks to an ice rink. Follow the fireball clones north to the tank button, then step LDLU and slide right to sneak past the tank. Although you probably don't wish to, you have to start cloning the walkers; escape that room and walk past the thief to the bouncing ball below. Wait, then take the four-space slide to the south and run past the block cloners to another thief, and turn left. Wait on this ball to bounce all the way west, then dive into the niche on the right and sneak past the ball as it bounces back west. Wait for this bee to clear out of the way, then take the green key. Now it switches directions!
Move block 13 out of the way, then shove block 12, or any of the other blocks, 3D 12L (or 11L/10L) 6D, take the chip to the right, and then 5D2R further to bridge to another chip. Walk out onto the ice, take the remaining chip and now skate to the fire area. From the chip, walk 4D3RU [3] URU past the bugs, then take the chip and backtrack out the same way, then clamp down to the green key. To finish, slide LR through the teleport, take the three chips above you, and then slide LRL to take the one last chip on the way over to the exit...204 seconds await.
{{-}}
==Level 91: ''Tutti-Frutti''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Tutti-Frutti.png|thumb|right|Level 91, time limit 750, 66 chips. Doesn't this seem similar to ''Smorgasbord''? ...Well, yes, it actually is.]]
''Tutti-Frutti'' is one of the two levels credited to Christian Stahl, but which was actually made by Anders Pemer, according to Christian himself. Like ''Smorgasbord'', ''Tutti-Frutti'' has a slight Scandinavian design reflecting their origins, and it is one of the common ''itemswapper'' levels: trade X item for Y item. You'll be getting pretty much everything. This job is tediously long, with several shortcuts (atypical for levels of this type), but with this map, the level is much easier.


Wait for the bug to clear away from the green door (as you cannot get the green key, open the door, and retreat to the trap before the bug opens it, and the bug will take four moves longer to circle back to the button again), then open the green door and wait to be released from the trap, at which point you go back to the west and take the blue key. Use this blue key to avoid the ball at the top, and then move to the block room in the center.
Collect the fire boots first, then go to the red key, ice skates, blue key, flippers, 65 chips, and then the green button which is guarded by a thief. Fortunately, the toggle wall leads to the glider and exit section, which allows Chip to teleport back to civilization. Take the two keys, then go through, and note this for later.


Open the green door at the top to clone a block, then shove the block DL (wait) U2LU into the water, and approach the ice room. Take the yellow key, open the door, shove the block into the far corner, and then step DR2U2RU to escape the room. Get the red key and use it to enter the passageway to the far right; touch all but one of the dirt spaces, then emerge back out, having trapped the teeth, and return to the walker room.
Continue with the suction boots, yellow key, yellow key two and fire boots, flippers, and now, with one yellow key, fire boots and flippers, chip 66. Move towards the fire boots, then turn east and open the chip socket to collect the green key. Now, Chip can either swim through the water and arrive at the exit safely, or use a daring shortcut through the teleport. As this teleport leads ''directly'' into the glider circle, luck and/or timing is required. Enter the teleport at ''471.2'', or as late as 470.6, and then open the green lock to exit. 468 different flavors!

==Level 92: ''Abandoned Mines''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Abandoned Mines.png|thumb|right|Level 92, time limit 500, 38 chips. Let this be a warning: ''do not'' clash magnetic forces, teeth and blobs in places with mines in them!]]
The route for this level required a ''long'' time to optimize to the limit, which was enough for me to raise the existing record of 456 to 457 and 458 with further refinements in the last section, until more diligent work in that very section from a team of two sent the record up to 459, where it stands. For any quick route, odd step is required.


Unlock the green button and wait for the walkers to stop, then pass through the tank again and get the suction boots. (If the clock shows anything less than 270 when you pick them up, you're too late for the bold score.) Use the suction boots to hold onto the force floors as the fireballs pass by, then unlock the skates and touch the tank button twice. (You can theoretically slide on the ice, step immediately down off the tank button, and escape the tanks; however, this has been counted out, move-by-move, and it saves no time.)
Get the suction boots, open the blue wall on the right to release half of the blobs, and meanwhile collect the chips. Move 6L 2U 3L 2D, then L or R and take the next one, then the chip in the back of the next bug, the two in the center, the chip in the back of the northern bug, and now 4R 2D 5R 2U to trap the fourth bug. Collect the remaining chips and walk out to the blob area, where the blobs have hopefully cleared out. Get the flippers and now step LULU 2R 3U past the blobs!


Wait for the bigger gap in the gliders, then jump down to get the flippers. Swim back to the start, get the fire boots, and push the block right one space. Go to the bottom and go RLRLRL through the ports, then hold down and use the block to stop the first two balls, so that you can (finally!) get to that nagging exit. You score 249 if your luck is good enough; keep trying. Remember that odd-step will be a help.
If you're still here, keep swimming, jump onto the force floors, and override the west force floor at the top. Remove the four chips on the solid land, then move 2D to reach the next circle. (Note that you can move L instead, decreasing the strain on the boosting and using a move Chip has to expend anyways.)


==Level 87: The Walker Machine==
You arrive in a teeth room next. Waste one move on the north wall if you didn't use it, then take the first chip and run 6R 5D 6L D [1] 3R D, which will lead to the last and toughest section: the back-and-forth force floor room! The route through this? Step on the ice and then move as follows:
This is, to set things straight, the sequel to JUMPING SWARM from the original set. While the original has received a reputation for being extremely hard, that is because the majority of those players don't have a map, which causes them to spend more time looking for the chips and more walkers come into the level. However, The Walker Machine is a lot smaller, and it is a speed level, but one that is highly adaptable to avoid walkers. This is just one of many routes through the level that will achieve 20.8:


* RDU2DLRLD2R2L3UL3DR3UL3DL3U2LD2RU (danger!) 2LDRDRDLULDRLU2LDRUDL3UD (This clears out the bottom section.)
L 3R 2D [1/2] R 2D LDUL 2D [1/2] R 3L 2U [1/2] L 2U RUDR 2U [1/2] U, and then slide the ice strip to the left to the exit. It may be that as much as 459.8 could be possible, as the current solution is 459.4 and has two mistakes.
{{-}}
==Level 93: ''Exit Chip''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Exit Chip.png|thumb|right|Level 93, time limit 500, 3 chips. If you want Chip to exit, make the level ''EASIER!'']]
The owner of this level boasts that you will ''never'' be able to complete Exit Chip, where it's located in the set where it is taken from. That may be because nothing is how it seems here...


* 4URL2D2RULDRULRURLDRDRULDRUUDUDRDRULDRURDRULDR2U (cleared out center) 2LU2RD2LU2RURULRD2LULRD2LRLUDU. Now you have all the chips, so get to that exit up there!
Step L 2D, which will reveal a hidden chip, run all the way east to reveal another chip, and sprint all the way to the northwest corner, which has the last chip. Keep walking east, which reveals a pair of flippers, and then walk into the open passageway in the center of the level. This reveals a bomb and four locks, a socket, water, and a block. Keep pushing the block all the way right until you can run north, because another space east is a buried wall which will make it impossible to move the block west. Walk through the dodgeball area, then stay to the north wall, past the single ball, the bomb, and then through to the next ball area.


==Level 88: Don't Get Lost==
Hang to the north, then walk down, wait, and sneak through to the very southeast and a short thin wall maze. Don't economize too much - the short way is mined, so walk around the entire maze. Wait one move to avoid being smashed, then slide to the top and get the suction boots in the upper right corner. Backtrack all the way to the lower ball section, uncover the hidden block, and push it east and north to the bomb. Now, move the original block towards the west, collect the hidden keys behind the force floors, then remove the water and the locks.
Run upwards, wait two moves, and take the chip, then wait two moves to join the ball stream. Teleport down to the lower left and wait two to join this stream, then drop to the bottom and take the chip in the corner. To get to the south of the teleport, move the block aside, then jump into it and move east to another ball stream. Wait two again, then take the flippers and chip to the west. With flippers, you can swim through the center shortcut, then go west into the teleport. Continue moving L4U2L (wait) 3D2L3U2L (wait) 3D4L3UL, and wait for the next clone before cutting across the stream to the south and taking the chip. Wait two moves, then cut across the stream again and take a "shortcut" by teleporting RL instead of going all the way west with the ball stream.


Continue to hold the west key, then join this next stream in time, take the flippers and chip, and swim west to another chip. Take another teleport west, join this stream, and temporarily divert north to slide on the force floor and take the chip. Wait two to return to the stream, then break north at the second path and get the fire boots. Walk through the fire and hold west to reach another section. First, take the chip at the top, then return to the center of the room and zigzag across to the teleport, waiting two moves for the stream at each turn. (No, you don't need that chip.)
There still remains the bomb, but fortunately, there is another hidden block by the water in the first ball area. Use that block to explode the bomb, then return to the start and uncover the hidden exit to exit Chip with 388 seconds.

==Level 94: ''Checkerboard II''==

[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Checkerboard II.png|thumb|right|Level 94, time limit 999, 24 chips. Is less more? Well, you couldn't get any more out of ''Checkerboard I''.]]
There are four distinct sections of this level to each side, as well as the checkerboard in the center. This time, there are only 25 blocks, each of which would be used one at a time on each chip, with one to reach the exit. The north section requires holding down traps, west contains bombs, east water, and south requires Chip to stop cloning fireballs before touching the red buttons. Each room has an exit as well.


Stop for one move before you run smack into the existing stream, then slide around the force floors (always keeping a one-space gap when tailgating a ball on a motorway!) to another chip on the east. Circle again, then break off at the teleport and step 2D2LD5LU (wait) 2URL2D2LD3L3RU (wait), and walk up to the exit. Your 317 seconds have been found again!
Thankfully, this level is ''much'' simpler than ''Checkerboard I'', especially when you use synchronized balls to speed the process up.


==Level 89: The Ghetto Defender==
''South section'': Move 6RD and hit one of the buttons to free the checkerboard. Shove block 18 D, then resume L 2D UL 6D and drop block 21 above this block. Shove block 24 6R and block 21 L, then move the corner block, block 25, 2L 5D 3R. Return to the checkerboard, push block 22 L, then move 2R URU 3R 2L and move this block 7D, and pile block 23 on top of it and then R. Divert north and move block 14 3R, then open the blue wall to the east to begin the next phase.
Don't just stand there, move! Step 2UR2U4R to sneak past the teeth (evenstep required!), then run all the way down to a fire boot, east to a green key, and 2U6L4U to safety.


Pass through the glider and walls, take the level's ten chips, and shove the lower two blocks into the water, followed by the second block on the group of three. (The left block is mined.) Ignore the flipper, and just walk through the maze. Step on the gravel, then take the upper ice slide and beat the balls to an ice slide. From the gravel, run 5L4U or any other route necessary to avoid the monsters, noting that you should start running up from at least two spaces away due to invisible walls. Sneak back out of the room, past the bouncing balls, and through the yellow door, which leads to an exit with a trap in front of it. However, you can just ''barely'' make it off into the exit to score a time of 381.
''East section'': Collect blocks 10 and 14, move them to the third column, and shove them respectively 10U and 7U. Follow with the two blocks remaining in the diagonal line at 4U and U, then move block 4 2D and step UL 2D 6R DRU. Now, collect block 3 and move it 2U on the way up to the blue wall blocking out the north section.


This was the first world record time I explicitly developed a route for; the previous record was 379 and took the unnecessary flipper, wasting enough time to not make it off the trap.
''North section'': Stuff block 3 north to the walls, then return and move block 2 R, block 6 3R, and block 2 7U further, then place the block at 9L similar to how you did it on the east section. On the way down, block 13 will run 2D; continue to move it R, then blocks 9, 5 and 1 U and blocks 5 and 9 R. Drop block 9 to the 6L position, then retrieve block 5 and put it at L on the second row to the north. To enter the west section, move block 8 L and then open the blue wall.


==Level 90: Marjolaine's Maze==
''West section'': From here, push block 15 U 4L 12D R and clone one pink ball, which will switch the walls every other turn. The work here is done for now; Chip will exit from here. Move block 8 4U and block 1 out to 3L on the first row of the north section.
Run all the way to the south wall in the maze below, then turn right and run downwards when possible into a teleport. Slide DUD through it to take the blue key and to take a shortcut through the maze, then walk to the very bottom. Take the upper fork (the bottom pathway is empty) and circle counterclockwise to collect four chips and an ice skate. The red key will not be required.


Slide UDU through the teleport, step over the ice corner to the right, and swap the blue key for a fire boot before turning back to the west. You soon see packs of four blocks; shove the one on the far east up and move the second block on the east 3D12L5D before taking a break to collect the chip on the east. Continue to push the block down to the thief, make a bridge to another chip, and walk out onto the ice thus: 4RU3RD7U8R3D2R, to arrive in a new area. Continue moving R4D3RU, then wait three moves and then step URU, which leads to another chip. Return to the far west fire space and step DL, then run south and east to a green key.
Now, start collecting the chips; push the stuck block onto brown button 5 and then collect block 8, which belongs directly on the top row without sideways movement. Continue 3L, then alternately push block 1 west and move the stuck blocks north onto the brown buttons until only block 1 is left. Move it underneath button 1, then step DL [1] U 2L, which will cause the toggle walls to now switch every move except every fourth move. Open the last trap, then hold to the north wall and take all the chips from the open traps except the seventh, which you can open with the remaining block. The north section is now ''permanently'' done. You will now be collecting the chips in a clockwise circle and going to the exit in the west section


Slide LR through the port, take the three chips above you, and then slide LRL to take the one last chip on the left. The exit is directly to the north...204 seconds await.
Take the loose block on the right of the checkerboard and move it into the east section, then pick up the block on column 2 and move it north, stopping to stuff the blocks at U and 7U into the toggle doors. Stop the block at the 13U position, step LURU to fully synchronize the three balls to change once every move, and clean the chips out from top to bottom. On the way out, hit a green button.


==Level 91: Tutti-Frutti==
Of the six blocks remaining within the checkerboard's borders, move block 6 6D, then move L and drop this block to the third row of toggle walls. Emerge with U3RUR and block clone machine 4, then continue the block 3U further and block out clone machine 5. Continue to move the block 5R, then block off clone machine 7, take the chips from here and cloners 5 and 4, and then touch red button 3 to begin a stream of fireballs. As this will continue infinitely, it must be stopped at some point; move 4U 2L 2U RLR 5D to block off the stream. Take the chip from clone machine 3 when it's safe to move east, then throw the remaining block in front of the entrance 8R and use it to stop clone machine 6. Finally, run across the lower edge and use this block to stop clone machine 2 to take the last chip. At this point, the fireballs are starting to explode some of the bombs in the west section.
Hug the wall to the right to get the fire boots. Return to the start, but go up. At the lower right corner is a red key. Hug the left wall (but don't go to the blue door). Open the red door and get the skates. Take the path left of the start and get the blue key in the ice pool at the bottom. Do ''not'' get the suction boots yet; instead go to the left of the red door area and take the left fork. Pass the blue door and get the flippers. Retire back to the red door area. Turn right and swim downwards. Pass the tank and pick up 65 of the chips. Go through the tank and open the toggle button. Enter the circle of gliders and get the red and blue keys to the left. Teleport back to right of the red door area. Go back to the start and get the suction boots. A bit south of the (former) red door is a yellow key; pass left of the red door and go right to nab it. Unlock the red door (on the other fork of the pathway to the flippers) and pick up a yellow key and fire boot. Go back to the red key pathway. Take the other fork and get the flippers. Take the upper path from the start (by the ice pool) and pass the fire, water, and yellow door to get the last chip. Go back to the original fire boot area. Pass the other way. Pass the chip socket and get the green key. Go back to the teleport. Wait until the clock ticks 471.4, then pass through the teleport and follow the gliders around. Pass the green door to exit. 468 different flavors!


==Level 92: Abandoned Mines==
Run directly north, touching the green button, then move the block in the southwest corner 4U 5L 3D [2] 6D [2] 3D and west to remove the unexploded bomb. Across the first column of toggle walls, run U [2] 2U to the third, [2] 2U [2] U to the fourth, and now take the last two at normal speed. The exit is a bit further north.
This is a very hard and challenging level. It requires good luck and high focus until the very end. Push the block up and get the suction boots. Open the first blue wall to the right. (Note: Odd step required.) Run 6L2U3L2DL2DRD5U3LUL3R4U2L4R2D5R2UR4L and go back to the blob area. With luck, the blobs have cleared out. Get the flippers and step LULU2RU. You are likely to die, but it is the fastest route. Now follow the force floors, stepping off where necessary. You arrive in a teeth room. Get the left chip and wait one move. Run right, down, and left. Wait one move, then hug the down wall and go right. You arrive in a turbulent force floor room. Run onto the ice and go '''extremely ''fast''''' L3R2D. Wait and resume R2DLDUL2D. Wait and continue again R3L2U. Wait one more time and step L2URU. Get the last chip to the left and go DR2U and force yourself onto the ice. Slide the ice to the exit. With perfect execution in turbulence, you score 459. Even 458 is semi-Herculean.


==Level 93: Exit Chip==
This route will yield 776; this is an embarrassing 12 seconds under the current record time of 788. Although 779 has been confirmed, this route is also unknown.
Where are the chips?? Go L2D and one appears! Run right and another appears. Reveal the last chip in the upper left corner. Run right to reveal flippers. Unearth a bomb and four doors in the center. Push the block out of the chip socket and run it right. '''Leave it there''' — there is a hidden wall to the right! Circle around this wall and beat the ball. Avoid the bomb and beat the balls below you as well. Spiral through ''all'' the thin walls — the short way is mined. Slide to the top and get the suction boots in the upper right corner. Backtrack to the lower ball section. Uncover a block hidden under the top part of the alcove to the left and push it through to the bomb. Go through the hidden wall and get the four keys past the force floors to the left. Push it all the way left and open the four doors. Go back to the water in the upper ball section. Retrieve the block from the edge of the water and push it into the bomb below. Return to the start and pass the force floor to exit Chip with 388 seconds.

==Level 95: ''Learn''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Learn.png|thumb|right|Level 95, time limit 350, 25 chips. Learn what? Is there something ''Checkerboard II'' didn't teach?]]
Another very easy level after an epic. Even step will be required.


==Level 94: Checkerboard II==
Step R and run to the gravel, then east all the way into the teleport. Step on the trap, which will be released by the teeth, then take the chips and return to the bombed-off room with the teeth in it. Once it kills itself (it makes no difference which bomb is used), take the chips, then go back through the teleport and enter the bug stream. Five spaces down on the right, you can walk directly west to take the eight chips, rather than taking the entire circle. Further to the east is a pair of balls with a walker yorkhouse to the north; as many as five moves can be taken waiting here. Do a little hoping and use some of your walker strategies, take the chips, then hang to the west and to the south to escape these balls. Only two simple barriers of balls remain; pass these to learn a new lesson and score 314 seconds.
{{-}}
==Level 96: ''Glider and Fire''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Glider and Fire.png|thumb|right|Level 96, time limit 500, 65 chips. Don't you like cheesy rhymes?]]
The goal of ''Glider and Fire'' is to use the limited block supply to send the gliders through the mazes of fire in order to remove the bombs. The difficulty is that there will be some right turns, requiring more blocks. As noted in the hint, ''use them carefully!''


''Lower section'': Move six steps to the right, break the wall below you, and hit one of the buttons. Go to directly above the second-lowest block on the right side and move DL2DUL; now push this block down as far as the floor spaces go (the bottom row), then six spaces to the right. Take the nearest block from here and put it three squares to the right on the center row. Now, pick out the lower block of the two touching and move it one space to the left on the center row. Move the far southwest block left one space, then move 3RURU3R2L. Take this block down to the center row, then drop the one on the left one space and the other block one space to the right. Get the last loose block and place it on the bottom row in line with the opening. Move directly up as far as you can without touching the blocks, then move the block to the right until you form a 3-block diagonal line. Step one space up and open the wall to the right.
Start by redirecting the gliders north by using the first block, then sprint all the way north and take the fire boots when the gliders free them. To the east are the other six blocks in the level, all ready for use; shove block 1 2L, block 2 8L3D, block 4 L, and block 3 7L. The gliders are now directed north; move block 1 UL to allow them to explode the bombs, then continue RD 2L ULU [1] R, take these chips, and finally move the block 2R D before taking the chips in the east shaft.


''Right section'': Get the nearest block and put it 10 spaces up on the right column. One block is also directly opposing the opening; pick this up and put it 7 spaces up on the right column. Take the two blocks in the diagonal line and put them at 4 up and 1 up. Move the extreme NE block down 2 and the block now to your left down two as well. Take the block to the right and put it 1 up on the middle column. Now, take the rightmost block remaining on the top row of the checkerboard, move it 2U, then move left and up into another fake wall.
The north section is now complete; start directing the gliders south. Direct the stream south by moving the block 4D2L, move R 2D LDRUR 2D to place the first block, and UL 3D RDL, which diverts this stream temporarily to explode a key bomb to the east. Reopen the path downwards with a R shove, then continue the block 9D [1] and take the two chips. Pick the block up again and continue 4R, then walk directly north and take the chips in the central shaft before you take the last block in the level 10D 2R, whereupon you can take the two chips in this shaft.


''Upper section'': Take the block just moved and stuff it up into the toggle doors. Move the second block on the upper row R, then go D3R2L and place the block above 9 spaces to the left on the upper row. Run down and stop in front of the block, then move LDRL3ULULURDRDR. Place the block above you 6 spaces left on the upper row. Take the loose block within the checkerboard and put that 1 to the left on the middle row. Move towards the L formation at the left of the checkerboard, push the block touching its corner one to the left, then move down and left into yet another open wall.
Continue to throw the bottom and top blocks 5R, taking the chips, until you reach the fourth shaft. When you reach this, move the top block 6R instead, then the lower block 2R, and use the upper block to explode one of the bombs blocking the mass of chips. Go back to the last shaft and take the chips, then sidle the remaining block R and run all the way to the north to collect a bundle of chips on the west side. Enter the east room when the bomb explodes and take another 16 chips, then wait for the approaching glider to slip north and sneak past it.


''Left section'': Move 2R2DRURU and move the accessible block into the middle column, then all the way down to 2 spaces away from being on the clone button. Push this block to the right so as to cause a bouncing ball, and clone a ball. Return to the checkerboard, move the nearest loose block up until you can push another loose block right. Do so, and then move this into the upper section, then thus 3 to the left on the upper row.
Finish the level by using the last remaining block to access the chips on the far right, then divert to the east, open the socket, and slide U [1] U to reach the exit at 398.
{{-}}
==Level 97: ''Roller Coaster''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Roller Coaster.png|thumb|right|Level 97, time limit 470, 1 chip. Betcha can't eat just one chip...especially after running on a nauseous roller coaster!!]]
''Roller Coaster'' contains many different obstacles in an itemswapper sequence which will take you on a wild ride. Get ready!


Now collect the block you just abandoned and move that under the block stuffed in. Push the block left, stopping on the way to move the other blocks up onto the traps and pick up the chips, until it is under the trap button on the far left. (On the second block ''only'', push the other block one step left before going up so as to expend those 2 moves while you are waiting anyway.) Collect this last chip, then hug the left wall. Clone a second ball. Resume collecting the (2) chips to the right, then exit this section permanently.
Begin by riding the roller coaster all the way to the bottom, then take the flippers on the west side and duck underneath the socket to get a green key. Open the green lock on rung 1, then stomp on the green button at the very end of the mess of blobs. Note that Chip does not have to be perfect. Travel to rung 7 and walk to the extreme south of the level, then swim upwards to the red key behind the now-open toggle wall.


Take the loose block on the right of the checkerboard and move it into the right section, leaving it in front of the flashing toggle doors. Push the block above you up, but stop on the first and third blocks to stuff them into the toggle doors. Stop the block one space away from the clone button and push it into the water to the right, stopping to clone a third ball. Climb down this section and push the succeeding blocks into the water, picking up the rest of the chips in this room. IMPORTANT: When leaving, step on a toggle button.
Go back to the roller coaster, open the red lock on rung 4, and walk to the second red key. In order to pass this section, you have to open the only locks that will let you recover the keys. Do this by moving 4L 2D, which frees another key, then open the lock 3R from the other red key to collect it. The red button is now available; open one last lock on the way out, then return to the southeast corner and use the block cloned to blow the bomb guarding the blue key.


Approach the bottom section and take the aligned block with you. Your blocks should now be in a double-row stack directly underneath you. Step left, then push the block on the left through the walls and down as far as it will go. Run out of the toggle walls once again, then move 3RUR and push this block in front of the fireball cloner (leave the chip). Push the top block to the right, but stop to push the other block in front of another cloner. Move this block all the way to the right (2 steps short of the button), block off this cloner, and pick up the chip. Ignore the chip with the exposed cloner here, but on the way over while picking up the remaining chips, step on the clone button to start cloning a stream of fireballs. Run upwards and around, wait two moves, and then push the LEFT block down a space. Continue to move it down, block off the stream, and pick up the chip below. Move the other block within 5 spaces of the clone button (that is, under the third wall of the string of wall blocking the access to the right section) and block off this cloner and pick up the chip. Run all the way to the left and block out the last cloner to get the last chip in this room. By now, you should be hearing bombs exploding in the left section. Run upwards and out, hitting the toggle button on the way.
Use this key to enter the walker section of the coaster, and run to the blue button and dash out! The hard part of this is that survival, much less perfection, is not guaranteed. If you're alive, retrieve the yellow key from the southeast, then use it to teleport to a fire maze.


Push the block on the far left up and into the left section. Place it on the left column, drop it three spaces, and then hit the nearest toggle button. Move it seven spaces further down, wait two moves, and then continue down and left into the lowest bomb. Be careful of the toggle patterns as you run upwards and pick up the remaining chips. The exit is at the top of this room. This route yields a total of 772 seconds, although the highest score known is 776. A solution for that time will be uploaded when one is revealed.
When you reach the south edge of the fire, you will discover a bug approaching; wait for him, then go to the teleport and enter the little fireball room. The 265 bold time will require entering this at 303.4. Knock the block south, which will divert the fireball into the bombs, then teleport back to the fire maze, walk all the way back to the other teleport, and return to the southeast corner. As you approach this, you will find that you can now take the chip and slide back out intact. Once you have this, pass the chip socket on the coaster to swim to the exit. This route is worth 265 seconds if anything less than twelve moves were expended waiting for random elements.

==Level 98: ''Loop''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Loop.png|thumb|right|Level 98, time limit 120, 20 chips. I've been thrown for a loop trying to find the loop in this level...now that's a self-contradictory statement.]]
There is little to suggest the name of ''Loop'', but the random force floor area will definitely cause such an occurrence! Odd step can be used here to save a move on the teeth, but it is used anyways waiting.


==Level 95: Learn==
Pass the flippers and fire boots, lure the teeth across the corner, and then collect the red key as you wait for the teeth to burn. Afterwards, walk out, take the ice skates from his den, then use the red key to trade for a blue key and yellow key, and now pass the toggle walls to collect the 20 chips. Enter the west side of the pool to swim out, then pass the zoo of teeth, the yellow lock, and three of the balls. Wait only for the fourth pink ball, then enter the random force floors, aiming for the green button. Once you're there, exit to the east and step into the open toggle wall. At this point, a time of at least 70.0 is required for the bold of 37.
Beat the balls and run right. Do ''not'' let the teeth blow up yet. Instead, teleport. The teeth hold the trap open for you, so get the four chips. Retreat and blow the teeth up to get the four chips. Retrace your steps and follow the bugs to eight chips. Run right and clear out the yorkhouse above you for the remaining chips. Turn right and fit through the balls to learn a new lesson and score 314 seconds.


==Level 96: Glider and Fire==
If it doesn't or just want to get the 36, take the two keys, open the green lock, and take the yellow key. Past the green buttons is a blue key up to the top; walk back to the buttons and touch ''exactly'' two of them, then open the blue lock and walk through the toggle walls to a pair of fire boots. Beyond the socket and the fire is a hidden exit; this is worth 37 optimally.
Push the block onto the lower left fire and wait for three gliders to pass; then run up to get the fire boot. Run right and push the top block 2L and the lower block left and down equal to the water. Push the lower block of the next two L and the other left to position for a bombing run. Push the top block UL and then U again. Push it out of the way to the right and get the three chips. Push the block 2RD and get the three chips to the right. Bring it back down and place it to block the gliders and send them down. The upper block goes R and the lower block 3D2L. Travel around it and push it R9D. Get three more chips to the left. Push the block right until the gliders travel outwards from the bombs (1 square right of them). Go back up, get the three chips up there, and push the block down and route the glider into the bomb. Push the block one more to the right and get the two chips below. Repeat. Repeat again, but push the block 2 squares right of the router. Then push the lower block R and the upper block 2R. Push the first block into the bombs to the right, get the two chips in the gliders, and push the block right one more to prepare the gliders. Run up and get the chips on the left; then get the ones on the right. Take the last block down to the bombs below and get the remaining chips. Go to the right of the level and pass the chip socket. Slide with the gliders around to the exit. You score 397 seconds.

==Level 99: ''One-Block Sokoban''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 One-Block Sokoban.png|thumb|right|Level 99, time limit 372, 15 chips. I'm pretty sure the original ''Sokoban'' needed more than one block. Is this stuff ''ever'' going to quit?]]
Unlike most Sokoban levels, ''One-Block Sokoban'' uses only one block, the same block on each target, and in an unconventional manner.


==Level 97: Roller Coaster==
Blast through the teleport and jam the block on the wall, then walk around to the red key and regress back to the block. When it reaches the red lock, collect the second and third chips to the south, open the lock, take the other chips, and then move the block all the way east onto the blue key, which due to the transparency of the blue key, erases the water underneath! You can do this on all the keys, which will source the basis for the rest of the level.
Ride the roller coaster down until you reach the bottom. Circle around and get the flippers. Take the rung below the chip socket and get the green key. Pass the green door and slide to the right. Beat all the blobs and stomp the green button. Take the lowest rung and hug the walls to the bottom. Get the red key high above you. Return to the coaster and open the red door. Take the red key to the right and go 4L2D to the next red door. Get the next key and go 3LU4L2DRD4R2D to the next door. Get the last key and use it to get to the clone button. Go back to the lower right and use the block cloned to blow the bomb guarding the blue key. Open the blue door on the coaster. Beat the walkers to the tank button and retreat. Go to the lower right and get the yellow key, now open. Unlock the yellow door on the coaster and teleport. Turn right and go down. Approach the teleport by going up and right. You are sent to a fireball area. Push the block down one and retreat to the teleport. Teleport to the coaster and go to the lower right. The fireball has blown a bomb; you can now access the chip. Get it and pass the chip socket on the coaster to swim to the exit. The ride lasted 205 seconds, and you keep the other 265 (provided you had good luck with the walkers and blobs).


==Level 98: Loop==
Return the block around to the center and east to reach a blue lock, then move the block to either side, open the lock, and destroy the water to take the yellow key. However, you won't be able to move the block out to the side at the yellow lock/green key portion, so stow the block to the unused side of the room above the yellow key and unlock the green lock before you collect the block and do the same to the green key.
Run right and hit the toggle button. Lead the teeth to the fire, where you get the red key. As they burn, run out and get the ice skates. Swap the keys to reach a yellow key. Go into the pool and get all the chips. Open the yellow door, hit the button twice, and beat the balls. Force over the random force floors and pass the open wall. Get the red and green keys and pass the gliders to get to the green door. Swap keys to get a blue key. Hit the buttons so the wall is closed, and open the blue door. Run down and left. Get the fire boots and pass the socket. The exit is hidden in the fire. You score a loop of 37 seconds (36 for the unfortunates with the force floors).


==Level 99: One-Block Sokoban==
To finish, take the block to the center, collect the remaining chips to the east, and shove the block back to the west to access the exit. For only one block, 269 seconds is a great haul.
Teleport and push the block right. Go down and get the red key. Push the block against the door. Get only the ''middle'' chips below you. Now, open the door and get the upper chips. Push the block onto the key and the water disappears! Bring it back to the start and push it right against the blue door to the right. Push it onto the yellow key and set it aside. Go down to the bottom and open the yellow door. Retrieve the block and push it onto the key. Get the key and get the remaining needed chips behind the green door. Push the block into the water at left and exit. 269 seconds for 1 block: good deal!

==Level 100: ''Torch''==
[[Image:Chips Challenge Level Pack 2 Torch.png|thumb|right|Level 100, time limit 400, 63 chips. In Britain, this level is harder!]]
''Torch'' is one of the easiest levels in the 100s section of CCLP2. Other than avoiding fireballs in a structured pattern, near nothing is necessary to win.


==Level 100: Torch==
Follow the path of the chips, waiting as needed, except at some point between collecting chip 6 and before chip 12, where a four-move wait is in order. In balance, this pays back with interest. When you reach the end of the chips, walk back to the start, take the fire boots, and wedge into the exit just to the west. It's that easy! This route will work for 345.
Follow the path of the chips, waiting as needed. But when you get to the middle the first time, wait 4 moves before continuing. Continue the path to the end. When finished, return to the start, pausing as needed again. Get the fire boots and enter the exit to the left of you. 345 seconds.

Levels 81 (Just Enough) through 100 (Torch) will be discussed on this page.

Level 81: Just Enough[edit]

Level 81, time limit 500, no chips. You think so? It looks like not enough work was done!

Only four blocks can be cloned before the teeth will escape from the line of toggle walls, which is why there are "just enough" blocks to do the job.

Move the first cloned block R 2U 5R D, then the second R 2U 6R 2D onto the ice, and use the other block to stick it in the ice. As this area was not walled off, this ice rink will allow Chip to collect two of the blocks in this area instead of taking them one apiece, also cutting the return trips drastically. Collect a third block, move it R 2U 5R D as well, and lock a second block into the ice in the same way. Clone block four and use a spring step to push the block R, which alters the slide delay. To avoid another delay, do not touch the red button, which would release the teeth eventually onto the force floor.

Move the block onto the ice strip, wait 2.5 moves, and then follow it. Continue sliding R, which will pick up the first block, then move D and then R back to the original space, and R to collect the second sliding block. Go back to the start to collect the fourth block, then carry it all the way through to the teleport and step UL, and now move this block onto the suction boots with the thin wall under them.

As there are three tiles on the same square, the thin wall will disappear. This was a key development in the level's route, but eventually the bust erased much of the importance. Collect the suction boots, then step RDL to slide all the way to the west, and clone a glider and slide onto the force floors, awaiting the explosion. When the glider destroys the bomb, slide to the exit. 346 seconds are just enough.

Level 82: The Block Stops Here[edit]

Level 82, time limit 300, 58 chips. This town ain't big enough for an actually funny caption.

In The Block Stops Here, Chip's major challenge is to choose between seven areas with red buttons in them, six of which are deadly!

Run all the way to the southwest teleport and then circle alternately counterclockwise and clockwise through the four rooms, moving U into each teleport, to get the 11 chips in each of the four rooms. Once again, enter from the south to return to the southwest block pyramid, then run 8R to position the loose block.

Step on the entrance to all the chips once, revealing a bomb in each of them, in the order 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 6, and touch the red button in the sixth alcove, which will detonate all the bombs in turn. Run west and nudge the loose block L before collecting the remaining chips from left to right. From within alcove seven, get in the two-space gap between the gliders and run 5R UR 2D 3R L 2U L, which allows one of the gliders to touch the green button for you as you run straight up to the northeast corner with the exit. The clock stops here at 253.

Level 83: Warehouse I[edit]

Level 83, time limit 600, no chips. Apparently, the blocks start here!

This Warehouse is both smaller and shorter than the behemoth successor located at slot 122. The very tight dimensions, however, make precise maneuvers mandatory to complete the level, and to get the 388 bold time, there must be no mistakes. The usual method of block numbering is divided into the four areas of Warehouse I; Chip starts in room 4.

Enter the teleport, run down, and move block 4 in room 1 2D. Move block 5 U 3R to join in room 2, then block 6 in this room 2UR, and block 5 U, which allows for some room. In room 1, push blocks 3 and 2 D and 2D, allowing you to use block 2 in room 4 (D 2R 3D R) and block 3 (U 2R). Now, in room 2, use block 2 on the bombs. With the path to the bombs open, the remainder of the level involves untangling the mess of blocks in the other rooms.

Start with blocks 3 and 4 in room 1, then the block between the warehouse rooms, and then move the block on the right wall of room 1 through and D, to get ready to explode it. First, collect block 1 here and teleport it through, and afterwards, follow with block 1 from room 1 in the same way, then using the remaining block in room 1. With room 1 cleared out entirely, move to room 2. Seven blocks are currently in here; use blocks 6, 5, 4, 2, and then 3, leaving only 1 and 7 which are currently unusable. To allow this, Chip must clear out room 3.

Knock the block lodged in the entrance 2R 2D, then use what is now block 2 and then block 1. When moving block 1 out, Chip will be heading north towards block 1 in room 2; move this 2D before continuing with the push. Now, take block 1 out of room 2, then follow with block 4 from room 4, and similarly, move block 7 in room 2 4U across the east wall as you circle behind block 4. Now, simply take room 2's block and then room 4's remaining block into oblivion, and finish the level to fork-lift 388 seconds into your stock.

Level 84: Crypts of Aganorak[edit]

Level 84, time limit 500, 40 chips. Whatever it is, I'm sure I don't want to visit it!

No, I don't know what AGANORAK is; only the level owner does, and I haven't been successful in finding out even from him. Based on the apparent fictional locations in the levelset, it's probably just made up.

Slide south through the teleport, then move up two rows and run west to pilfer the red key. Run to the very top of the level to escape the ball juggernaut, then slide UD through the teleport and enter the red lock to the east, which leads to a blue wall maze containing fire boots and a section of chips. Well? Take both!

When you emerge from this maze, slide LRL through the teleport (slightly faster than just walking) and run south into the fire maze. Move through the rooms LUL 3D RURDRUL, then return to the teleport and step up into it to enter the bug area. With perfect boosting to date, including this one, you can bust directly through the blue lock and slip just past the bug. You can to take the goodies in most any order; you can dive into the center after getting 1, 2, 3, or even all 4 of the corner chips. Go back through the teleport, then zip east...and here's where you might need a bit of assistance from Lady Luck.

There are 4 chips on the left, and 9 chips and flippers on the right. You can afford to lose as many as four moves without loss of a second, but try to get back as soon as possible. Return to the start room, then circle around the teleport and enter from the east to swim to the last chip. Slide RL, pass the chip socket, and turn east (as said by the hint in the fire maze), which leads to a block with a buried exit, while the other block has fire under it! Inside the crypt? A treasure worth 426 seconds.

Level 85: Follow the Glacier Brick Road[edit]

Level 85, time limit 350, 21 chips. SURRENDER MELINDA (?)

Like Mads' Rush II, which can take upwards of 1,000 attempts, you could be spending an entire week, or maybe a month, or your whole life, trying to collect this bold. It may be that a significant slice of the highest level of Chipsters will never collect this bold. At this writing, there were only four or five that did, me included.

This is the route:

  • 3R DR 2D L (LU) DRD 2L 3D R (spot A) 4D URU 2R 2D (2L 2D) RDL 2R 2D LD 2L U, then backtrack all the way to spot A.
  • D 4R 2U R (2U 2L U 2R) DR 3D (spot B) 2D (2L U 2L) DRDRD (2L DR) 2R 2D (3R UL) DR 2L 4D 2R D 3R (this is the toughest section) 2U (LU) 2R (2R U) 2U R 3L URUR, and decamp to spot B.
  • 5R 2D (L, RD 3R 2U 3R DL) and 3U 2R (2D 2R 2U [2U], RD 2R), and follow the visible walls to the exit.

Now, the crunch? The top score of 306 requires 72 out of 72 boosts! That isn't hard except for the fact that several of the important sections require combination boosts with two spaces in between each ice square (such as the 5R run in the "toughest section"), which are tough to do once, and with more than one in a row, it is a huge feat. And there's twelve of these double boosts in the level. Sometimes they even intersect to make a triple boost.

The more you play it, the easier it gets. All I can say is to move the interchangeable sections around a bit to your needs, and make sure you practice the southeast corner above all!

Level 86: Creative One-Ways[edit]

Level 86, time limit 350, no chips. Is going one way ever creative?

Yes, yes, Creative One-Ways deserves its name. While it is now a common format, this level was one of the first to use the one-way street. Your goal in this level is to reach the end of the one-ways and take the green key, then use that key to pass by the obstacles blocking the way back, and then finally to use it to get to the exit, which is inaccessible at this point. You'll want to use odd step to save an extra move.

Run past the balls, pass the safe block, and sneak past the gliders and tanks to an ice rink. Follow the fireball clones north to the blue button, then step LDLU 2R to sneak past the tank. Although you probably don't wish to, you have to start cloning the walkers; escape that room and walk past the thief to the bouncing ball below. Wait, then take the longer slide to the south and run past the clone blocks to another thief, and turn left. Wait on this ball to bounce all the way west, then dive into the niche on the right and sneak past the ball as it bounces back west. The final obstacle is the bug below; after he hits the block, push and dodge it, then walk behind him to take the green key. Now it switches directions!

Wait for the bug to clear away from the green lock, as you can't open it quick enough to be released, then open it and wait to be released from the trap, at which point you go back to the west and take the blue key. Use this blue key to avoid the ball at the top, and then move to the block room in the center.

Open the lock at the top to clone a block, then shove the block DL [1] U 2L U into the water, and approach the ice room. Take the yellow key, open its lock, shove the block L to the corner, and then step DR 2U 2R U to escape the room. Get the red key and use it to enter the passageway to the far right; touch all but the last dirt, then emerge back out, having trapped the teeth, and return to the walker room.

Unlock the green button and wait for the walkers to stop, then pass through the tank again and get the suction boots. The deadline for the bold is 270.0 at this point; this is unlikely but not uncommon. Use these to stand on the force floors, which avoids the fireballs, then either take the ice skates and skate to the blue button, touching it twice, or slide to the button and use a DR quick boost to escape the tanks; neither route is any quicker.

Wait for the bigger gap in the gliders, then jump down to get the flippers. Swim back to the start, get the fire boots, and push the hot block R, which will allow you to free the exit. Go to the bottom and teleport RLRLRL, which allows Chip to use the block against the last two balls, so that you can (finally!) get to that nagging exit. You score 249 if your luck is good enough; keep trying. Remember that odd step will be a help.

Level 87: The Walker Machine[edit]

Level 87, time limit 50, 67 chips. So walkers still live in castles?

The Walker Machine is the spiritual sequel to Jumping Swarm from CC1. While the original has received a reputation for being extremely hard, that is because the majority of those players don't have a map, which causes them to spend more time looking for the chips and more walkers come into the level. However, The Walker Machine is a lot smaller, there is water in play, and the chips under blue walls format allows for many routes just like Jumping Swarm. This is just one of many routes through the level that will achieve 20.8:

  • RDU 2D LRL D 2R 2L 3U L 3D R 3U L 3D L 3U 2L D 2R U (danger!) 2L DRDRDLULDRLU 2L DRUDL 3U D, clearing the entire south area.
  • 4U RL 2D RURDLURUR 2D RURDLURURL 2D RU 3R D 3L URD 2R (center area gone) ULULU 2R DR 3L U 2R UR (2U) 2L (2U) 2L URDLU. Now you have all the chips, so get to that exit up there!

Level 88: Don't Get Lost[edit]

Level 88, time limit 400, 12 chips. Why do you need three hints, a level title and this guide to tell you not to get lost?

Each of the ten sections of Don't Get Lost contain some chips guarded by pink ball clone machines and other obstacles. Don't get lost!

Wait [2] to take the first chip, then wait two moves to join the ball stream. Teleport down to room 2 and wait two to join this stream, then drop to the bottom and take the chip in the corner. To get to the south of the teleport, move the block aside, then jump into it and move east to another ball stream. Wait two moves again, then take the flippers and chip to the west. With flippers, you can swim through the center shortcut, then go west to room 4. Continue to spiral through the water spaces and wait for the next clone, then teleport to room 5 and pass this stream to the south for another chip. Wait two moves, then cut across the stream again and take a "shortcut" to room 6 by sliding RL.

Continue to hold the west key, then join this next stream in time, take the flippers and chip, and swim west to another chip. Take another teleport west, join this stream, and temporarily divert north to slide on the force floor and take the chip before going back to the stream. Wait two to join, then break north and get the fire boots to allow Chip to teleport west to room 8. First, take the chip at the top, then return to the center of the room and zigzag across to the teleport, waiting two moves for the stream at each turn. This is the one chip that is not required.

Stop for one move before you run smack into the existing stream in room 9, then slide around the force floors, either dropping one move and boosting or not using the boosting, to another chip on the east. Circle again, then break off at the teleport to room 10. Approach the chip on the top from the right, then walk to the final chip and up to the exit. Your 317 seconds have been found again!

Level 89: The Ghetto Defender[edit]

Level 89, time limit 450, 10 chips. So is the ghetto that water pool? ...well, I guess there is one glider in this level...

Don't just stand there, move! Step 2U R 2U 4R to sneak past the teeth, using even step, then run all the way down to fire boots, east to a green key, and 2U 6L 4U to safety.

Pass through the glider and balls, take the level's ten chips, and shove blocks 6, 5 and 3 into the water to reach the flippers. However, since they are not required anywhere else and will not reach the yellow key safely, don't take them! If you do, you lose some crucial time. Sneak past the walker and the two gravel spaces, and take the upper ice slide past some bouncing balls to reach one final important section.

From the gravel, run 5L4U or any other route necessary to avoid the monsters without losing time, as there is a walker in this room. Sneak back out of the room, past the bouncing balls, and through the yellow lock, which leads to an exit with a trap in front of it. However, you can just barely make it off into the exit to score a time of 381. This was the first world record time I explicitly developed a route for; the previous record was 379 and took the unnecessary flippers, wasting enough time to not make it off the trap.

Also note that the section to the west of the start is a trap because of the hidden wall; while there are ten chips there, Chip can collect the required ten faster on his normal route, and Chip can't escape this area due to the teeth.

Level 90: Marjolaine's Maze[edit]

Level 90, time limit 280, 13 chips. We're sorry, the caption for this level is property of Marjolaine.

Marjolaine's Maze is a maze, although it is composed of several disparate sections with a couple of secret shortcuts.

Pass the thief to the south, then teleport DUD to take a slightly shorter route through the maze, also collecting a blue key. Collect everything but the red key, then slide UDU through the teleport. Because the red lock blocks Chip, this slide takes Chip back to the blue key, where he can jump over the ice corner and unlock the fire boots. Wind back through the maze to 13 blocks; eight of them are actually clone blocks. Blocks 1, 10, 11, 12 and 13 are movable, but block 1 is unusable.

Move block 13 out of the way, then shove block 12, or any of the other blocks, 3D 12L (or 11L/10L) 6D, take the chip to the right, and then 5D2R further to bridge to another chip. Walk out onto the ice, take the remaining chip and now skate to the fire area. From the chip, walk 4D3RU [3] URU past the bugs, then take the chip and backtrack out the same way, then clamp down to the green key. To finish, slide LR through the teleport, take the three chips above you, and then slide LRL to take the one last chip on the way over to the exit...204 seconds await.

Level 91: Tutti-Frutti[edit]

Level 91, time limit 750, 66 chips. Doesn't this seem similar to Smorgasbord? ...Well, yes, it actually is.

Tutti-Frutti is one of the two levels credited to Christian Stahl, but which was actually made by Anders Pemer, according to Christian himself. Like Smorgasbord, Tutti-Frutti has a slight Scandinavian design reflecting their origins, and it is one of the common itemswapper levels: trade X item for Y item. You'll be getting pretty much everything. This job is tediously long, with several shortcuts (atypical for levels of this type), but with this map, the level is much easier.

Collect the fire boots first, then go to the red key, ice skates, blue key, flippers, 65 chips, and then the green button which is guarded by a thief. Fortunately, the toggle wall leads to the glider and exit section, which allows Chip to teleport back to civilization. Take the two keys, then go through, and note this for later.

Continue with the suction boots, yellow key, yellow key two and fire boots, flippers, and now, with one yellow key, fire boots and flippers, chip 66. Move towards the fire boots, then turn east and open the chip socket to collect the green key. Now, Chip can either swim through the water and arrive at the exit safely, or use a daring shortcut through the teleport. As this teleport leads directly into the glider circle, luck and/or timing is required. Enter the teleport at 471.2, or as late as 470.6, and then open the green lock to exit. 468 different flavors!

Level 92: Abandoned Mines[edit]

Level 92, time limit 500, 38 chips. Let this be a warning: do not clash magnetic forces, teeth and blobs in places with mines in them!

The route for this level required a long time to optimize to the limit, which was enough for me to raise the existing record of 456 to 457 and 458 with further refinements in the last section, until more diligent work in that very section from a team of two sent the record up to 459, where it stands. For any quick route, odd step is required.

Get the suction boots, open the blue wall on the right to release half of the blobs, and meanwhile collect the chips. Move 6L 2U 3L 2D, then L or R and take the next one, then the chip in the back of the next bug, the two in the center, the chip in the back of the northern bug, and now 4R 2D 5R 2U to trap the fourth bug. Collect the remaining chips and walk out to the blob area, where the blobs have hopefully cleared out. Get the flippers and now step LULU 2R 3U past the blobs!

If you're still here, keep swimming, jump onto the force floors, and override the west force floor at the top. Remove the four chips on the solid land, then move 2D to reach the next circle. (Note that you can move L instead, decreasing the strain on the boosting and using a move Chip has to expend anyways.)

You arrive in a teeth room next. Waste one move on the north wall if you didn't use it, then take the first chip and run 6R 5D 6L D [1] 3R D, which will lead to the last and toughest section: the back-and-forth force floor room! The route through this? Step on the ice and then move as follows:

L 3R 2D [1/2] R 2D LDUL 2D [1/2] R 3L 2U [1/2] L 2U RUDR 2U [1/2] U, and then slide the ice strip to the left to the exit. It may be that as much as 459.8 could be possible, as the current solution is 459.4 and has two mistakes.

Level 93: Exit Chip[edit]

Level 93, time limit 500, 3 chips. If you want Chip to exit, make the level EASIER!

The owner of this level boasts that you will never be able to complete Exit Chip, where it's located in the set where it is taken from. That may be because nothing is how it seems here...

Step L 2D, which will reveal a hidden chip, run all the way east to reveal another chip, and sprint all the way to the northwest corner, which has the last chip. Keep walking east, which reveals a pair of flippers, and then walk into the open passageway in the center of the level. This reveals a bomb and four locks, a socket, water, and a block. Keep pushing the block all the way right until you can run north, because another space east is a buried wall which will make it impossible to move the block west. Walk through the dodgeball area, then stay to the north wall, past the single ball, the bomb, and then through to the next ball area.

Hang to the north, then walk down, wait, and sneak through to the very southeast and a short thin wall maze. Don't economize too much - the short way is mined, so walk around the entire maze. Wait one move to avoid being smashed, then slide to the top and get the suction boots in the upper right corner. Backtrack all the way to the lower ball section, uncover the hidden block, and push it east and north to the bomb. Now, move the original block towards the west, collect the hidden keys behind the force floors, then remove the water and the locks.

There still remains the bomb, but fortunately, there is another hidden block by the water in the first ball area. Use that block to explode the bomb, then return to the start and uncover the hidden exit to exit Chip with 388 seconds.

Level 94: Checkerboard II[edit]

Checkerboard II
Video solution.
Level 94, time limit 999, 24 chips. Is less more? Well, you couldn't get any more out of Checkerboard I.

There are four distinct sections of this level to each side, as well as the checkerboard in the center. This time, there are only 25 blocks, each of which would be used one at a time on each chip, with one to reach the exit. The north section requires holding down traps, west contains bombs, east water, and south requires Chip to stop cloning fireballs before touching the red buttons. Each room has an exit as well.

Thankfully, this level is much simpler than Checkerboard I, especially when you use synchronized balls to speed the process up.

South section: Move 6RD and hit one of the buttons to free the checkerboard. Shove block 18 D, then resume L 2D UL 6D and drop block 21 above this block. Shove block 24 6R and block 21 L, then move the corner block, block 25, 2L 5D 3R. Return to the checkerboard, push block 22 L, then move 2R URU 3R 2L and move this block 7D, and pile block 23 on top of it and then R. Divert north and move block 14 3R, then open the blue wall to the east to begin the next phase.

East section: Collect blocks 10 and 14, move them to the third column, and shove them respectively 10U and 7U. Follow with the two blocks remaining in the diagonal line at 4U and U, then move block 4 2D and step UL 2D 6R DRU. Now, collect block 3 and move it 2U on the way up to the blue wall blocking out the north section.

North section: Stuff block 3 north to the walls, then return and move block 2 R, block 6 3R, and block 2 7U further, then place the block at 9L similar to how you did it on the east section. On the way down, block 13 will run 2D; continue to move it R, then blocks 9, 5 and 1 U and blocks 5 and 9 R. Drop block 9 to the 6L position, then retrieve block 5 and put it at L on the second row to the north. To enter the west section, move block 8 L and then open the blue wall.

West section: From here, push block 15 U 4L 12D R and clone one pink ball, which will switch the walls every other turn. The work here is done for now; Chip will exit from here. Move block 8 4U and block 1 out to 3L on the first row of the north section.

Now, start collecting the chips; push the stuck block onto brown button 5 and then collect block 8, which belongs directly on the top row without sideways movement. Continue 3L, then alternately push block 1 west and move the stuck blocks north onto the brown buttons until only block 1 is left. Move it underneath button 1, then step DL [1] U 2L, which will cause the toggle walls to now switch every move except every fourth move. Open the last trap, then hold to the north wall and take all the chips from the open traps except the seventh, which you can open with the remaining block. The north section is now permanently done. You will now be collecting the chips in a clockwise circle and going to the exit in the west section

Take the loose block on the right of the checkerboard and move it into the east section, then pick up the block on column 2 and move it north, stopping to stuff the blocks at U and 7U into the toggle doors. Stop the block at the 13U position, step LURU to fully synchronize the three balls to change once every move, and clean the chips out from top to bottom. On the way out, hit a green button.

Of the six blocks remaining within the checkerboard's borders, move block 6 6D, then move L and drop this block to the third row of toggle walls. Emerge with U3RUR and block clone machine 4, then continue the block 3U further and block out clone machine 5. Continue to move the block 5R, then block off clone machine 7, take the chips from here and cloners 5 and 4, and then touch red button 3 to begin a stream of fireballs. As this will continue infinitely, it must be stopped at some point; move 4U 2L 2U RLR 5D to block off the stream. Take the chip from clone machine 3 when it's safe to move east, then throw the remaining block in front of the entrance 8R and use it to stop clone machine 6. Finally, run across the lower edge and use this block to stop clone machine 2 to take the last chip. At this point, the fireballs are starting to explode some of the bombs in the west section.

Run directly north, touching the green button, then move the block in the southwest corner 4U 5L 3D [2] 6D [2] 3D and west to remove the unexploded bomb. Across the first column of toggle walls, run U [2] 2U to the third, [2] 2U [2] U to the fourth, and now take the last two at normal speed. The exit is a bit further north.

This route will yield 776; this is an embarrassing 12 seconds under the current record time of 788. Although 779 has been confirmed, this route is also unknown.

Level 95: Learn[edit]

Level 95, time limit 350, 25 chips. Learn what? Is there something Checkerboard II didn't teach?

Another very easy level after an epic. Even step will be required.

Step R and run to the gravel, then east all the way into the teleport. Step on the trap, which will be released by the teeth, then take the chips and return to the bombed-off room with the teeth in it. Once it kills itself (it makes no difference which bomb is used), take the chips, then go back through the teleport and enter the bug stream. Five spaces down on the right, you can walk directly west to take the eight chips, rather than taking the entire circle. Further to the east is a pair of balls with a walker yorkhouse to the north; as many as five moves can be taken waiting here. Do a little hoping and use some of your walker strategies, take the chips, then hang to the west and to the south to escape these balls. Only two simple barriers of balls remain; pass these to learn a new lesson and score 314 seconds.

Level 96: Glider and Fire[edit]

Level 96, time limit 500, 65 chips. Don't you like cheesy rhymes?

The goal of Glider and Fire is to use the limited block supply to send the gliders through the mazes of fire in order to remove the bombs. The difficulty is that there will be some right turns, requiring more blocks. As noted in the hint, use them carefully!

Start by redirecting the gliders north by using the first block, then sprint all the way north and take the fire boots when the gliders free them. To the east are the other six blocks in the level, all ready for use; shove block 1 2L, block 2 8L3D, block 4 L, and block 3 7L. The gliders are now directed north; move block 1 UL to allow them to explode the bombs, then continue RD 2L ULU [1] R, take these chips, and finally move the block 2R D before taking the chips in the east shaft.

The north section is now complete; start directing the gliders south. Direct the stream south by moving the block 4D2L, move R 2D LDRUR 2D to place the first block, and UL 3D RDL, which diverts this stream temporarily to explode a key bomb to the east. Reopen the path downwards with a R shove, then continue the block 9D [1] and take the two chips. Pick the block up again and continue 4R, then walk directly north and take the chips in the central shaft before you take the last block in the level 10D 2R, whereupon you can take the two chips in this shaft.

Continue to throw the bottom and top blocks 5R, taking the chips, until you reach the fourth shaft. When you reach this, move the top block 6R instead, then the lower block 2R, and use the upper block to explode one of the bombs blocking the mass of chips. Go back to the last shaft and take the chips, then sidle the remaining block R and run all the way to the north to collect a bundle of chips on the west side. Enter the east room when the bomb explodes and take another 16 chips, then wait for the approaching glider to slip north and sneak past it.

Finish the level by using the last remaining block to access the chips on the far right, then divert to the east, open the socket, and slide U [1] U to reach the exit at 398.

Level 97: Roller Coaster[edit]

Level 97, time limit 470, 1 chip. Betcha can't eat just one chip...especially after running on a nauseous roller coaster!!

Roller Coaster contains many different obstacles in an itemswapper sequence which will take you on a wild ride. Get ready!

Begin by riding the roller coaster all the way to the bottom, then take the flippers on the west side and duck underneath the socket to get a green key. Open the green lock on rung 1, then stomp on the green button at the very end of the mess of blobs. Note that Chip does not have to be perfect. Travel to rung 7 and walk to the extreme south of the level, then swim upwards to the red key behind the now-open toggle wall.

Go back to the roller coaster, open the red lock on rung 4, and walk to the second red key. In order to pass this section, you have to open the only locks that will let you recover the keys. Do this by moving 4L 2D, which frees another key, then open the lock 3R from the other red key to collect it. The red button is now available; open one last lock on the way out, then return to the southeast corner and use the block cloned to blow the bomb guarding the blue key.

Use this key to enter the walker section of the coaster, and run to the blue button and dash out! The hard part of this is that survival, much less perfection, is not guaranteed. If you're alive, retrieve the yellow key from the southeast, then use it to teleport to a fire maze.

When you reach the south edge of the fire, you will discover a bug approaching; wait for him, then go to the teleport and enter the little fireball room. The 265 bold time will require entering this at 303.4. Knock the block south, which will divert the fireball into the bombs, then teleport back to the fire maze, walk all the way back to the other teleport, and return to the southeast corner. As you approach this, you will find that you can now take the chip and slide back out intact. Once you have this, pass the chip socket on the coaster to swim to the exit. This route is worth 265 seconds if anything less than twelve moves were expended waiting for random elements.

Level 98: Loop[edit]

Level 98, time limit 120, 20 chips. I've been thrown for a loop trying to find the loop in this level...now that's a self-contradictory statement.

There is little to suggest the name of Loop, but the random force floor area will definitely cause such an occurrence! Odd step can be used here to save a move on the teeth, but it is used anyways waiting.

Pass the flippers and fire boots, lure the teeth across the corner, and then collect the red key as you wait for the teeth to burn. Afterwards, walk out, take the ice skates from his den, then use the red key to trade for a blue key and yellow key, and now pass the toggle walls to collect the 20 chips. Enter the west side of the pool to swim out, then pass the zoo of teeth, the yellow lock, and three of the balls. Wait only for the fourth pink ball, then enter the random force floors, aiming for the green button. Once you're there, exit to the east and step into the open toggle wall. At this point, a time of at least 70.0 is required for the bold of 37.

If it doesn't or just want to get the 36, take the two keys, open the green lock, and take the yellow key. Past the green buttons is a blue key up to the top; walk back to the buttons and touch exactly two of them, then open the blue lock and walk through the toggle walls to a pair of fire boots. Beyond the socket and the fire is a hidden exit; this is worth 37 optimally.

Level 99: One-Block Sokoban[edit]

Level 99, time limit 372, 15 chips. I'm pretty sure the original Sokoban needed more than one block. Is this stuff ever going to quit?

Unlike most Sokoban levels, One-Block Sokoban uses only one block, the same block on each target, and in an unconventional manner.

Blast through the teleport and jam the block on the wall, then walk around to the red key and regress back to the block. When it reaches the red lock, collect the second and third chips to the south, open the lock, take the other chips, and then move the block all the way east onto the blue key, which due to the transparency of the blue key, erases the water underneath! You can do this on all the keys, which will source the basis for the rest of the level.

Return the block around to the center and east to reach a blue lock, then move the block to either side, open the lock, and destroy the water to take the yellow key. However, you won't be able to move the block out to the side at the yellow lock/green key portion, so stow the block to the unused side of the room above the yellow key and unlock the green lock before you collect the block and do the same to the green key.

To finish, take the block to the center, collect the remaining chips to the east, and shove the block back to the west to access the exit. For only one block, 269 seconds is a great haul.

Level 100: Torch[edit]

Level 100, time limit 400, 63 chips. In Britain, this level is harder!

Torch is one of the easiest levels in the 100s section of CCLP2. Other than avoiding fireballs in a structured pattern, near nothing is necessary to win.

Follow the path of the chips, waiting as needed, except at some point between collecting chip 6 and before chip 12, where a four-move wait is in order. In balance, this pays back with interest. When you reach the end of the chips, walk back to the start, take the fire boots, and wedge into the exit just to the west. It's that easy! This route will work for 345.
