Spirals
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: the Spirals corruption, which has instead of floor at grid coordinate (29, 13), a thin wall east, making the level much harder and at a full 5 rating. The "corruption" is actually the original Lynx version; the edit was made for the official MS version to accommodate the different walker behavior. However, some copies never got the change. If a player's version contains the corruption, they can simply use a level editor to change the offending grid coordinate to floor.

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.
