Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers is a fun platform game made by Capcom. It's based on the popular Disney cartoon show with the same name. The game first came out for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1990. Later, it was also released in Europe and for the PlayChoice-10 arcade system. About 1.2 million copies of the game were sold around the world!
You can also find this game in a collection called The Disney Afternoon Collection. This collection came out in April 2017 for computers (Microsoft Windows), PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
How to Play the Game
Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers is a platform game. This means you control characters who jump between platforms and avoid obstacles. You can play by yourself or with a friend in a special 2-player mode.
The game lets you pick which levels to play from a map of the city. Each level is a side-scrolling adventure. Chip and Dale can walk, jump, and duck. They can also pick up things like acorns, crates, and barrels. You can throw these items at enemies and big bosses to defeat them.
Be careful! Each character can only get hit three times before losing a life. There are no passwords to save your game, so you have to finish it in one go. If you play with a friend, one person controls Chip and the other controls Dale.
The other characters from the Rescue Rangers show also help you:
- Monterey Jack sometimes appears to break down barriers that block your way.
- Zipper is a tiny fly who can give you temporary invincibility. This means you can't be hurt for a short time!
- Gadget is captured by the bad guy, Fat Cat. But she still helps by sending tips and advice for each level.
The Story of the Game
The game starts with the Rescue Rangers on a mission. They need to find a missing kitten for a girl named Mandy. Gadget goes ahead to check things out. Monterey Jack and Zipper go to look into some strange robot dogs.
Chip and Dale walk through the streets and find a laboratory. Inside, a crazy robot attacks them! After they beat the robot, the evil Fat Cat shows up. He tells them that Mandy's kitten was just a trick. His real plan was to kidnap Gadget and make her work for him.
Luckily, Gadget is very smart. She builds a secret phone to contact Chip and Dale. She also sends them a map using a carrier pigeon. This map helps Chip and Dale find their way through dangerous places. They finally reach Fat Cat's casino, where Gadget is being held.
After they rescue Gadget, she gives them a rocket. This rocket sends them straight to Fat Cat's hideout. Now, Chip and Dale can finally face Fat Cat and defeat him!
The Next Adventure
Capcom made a second game called Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers 2. It came out in December 1993, also for the Nintendo Entertainment System.
This sequel has similar graphics and gameplay to the first game. It also has cool new features for playing with a friend. For example, there are mini-games that only two players can enjoy together. You can even throw your partner as a weapon to hit enemies!
