Hints may be immediately available, but some are often disguised and can be made deliberately dangerous or time-wasting to reach: [[Crypts of Aganorak]] will be [[cook]]ed if Chip reads the hint for [4] or longer, and simply stepping onto the hint of [[Pyramid]] will trap Chip behind a [[recessed wall]]. If Chip reads the hint for [[You Must Be Joking]] for too long, he will run out of time. They can include valuable clues such as the key objective of the level, buried [[item]]s or where to find the [[exit]] ([[Ladder Needs a Wash]]), explain why the player has just cooked the level ([[Zelgon's Lair]]), fill in backstory important to solving the level or enriches the experience ([[Captured]]), or elucidate the level design and/or name if, perhaps, there are proper names, references or fictional locations that need such explanation. [[The Ghosts at the Massingham Mansion]], [[Oil Rig]], [[Super Chip]], [[Get a Clue]] and [[And Then There Were... Four?]] are several such levels, whilst [[Chip Alone: Lost in Chip City]]'s hint message references the movie ''Home Alone 2: Lost in New York'' in a way that the movie's plot is a hint to the player. | Hints may be immediately available, but some are often disguised and can be made deliberately dangerous or time-wasting to reach: [[Crypts of Aganorak]] will be [[cook]]ed if Chip reads the hint for [4] or longer, and simply stepping onto the hint of [[Pyramid]] will trap Chip behind a [[recessed wall]].

Only 21 levels in [[Chip's Challenge 1]] contain hints. With increasing difficulty in [[CCLP2]] and [[CCLP3]], more hints are included in these levelsets; CCLP3's running storyline also demanded more gap-filling. There are four missing hints ([[Deconstruction]], [[Hmmm!]], [[Ray of Light]] and [[CircleMaze]]) and 37 official hints in CCLP2, while CCLP3 contains ''58'' official hints and two blank hints - [[Vague Dream]] and [[Suspended Animation]]. | Only 21 levels in [[Chip's Challenge 1]] contain hints.
