Spirals is the 88th level in Chip's Challenge 1. One of the most notorious "glitches" in Chip's Challenge occurs in some versions of Spirals, known as the Spirals corruption, which is actually an incomplete version difference.

Spirals can be completed in the bold time by walking the paths through the spirals, which are almost totally one path; the only intersections are the chips. From each chip, turn 2D L R 2D 2L U L 2D and L off the chip to return to the exit. In this version, Chip can almost never be caught by the walkers.

Version differences[edit]

Due to a change in walker behavior, this level became vastly more difficult in the Microsoft port; to compensate, a thin wall was changed to a floor at (29, 13). However, some copies of the game shipped with the original Lynx level, and the difference was so staggering that the original level layout was believed to somehow be a mistake, known as "Spirals corruption". If a player's version contains the corruption, they can simply use a level editor to change the offending grid coordinate to floor.

Full level map[edit]

This is the MSCC version of the level. The missing wall is fairly distinct and can be seen just north of the exit.
