The 80 [[blob]]s bouncing around randomly within structured squares to collect 88 [[computer chip]]s among thin tunnels has led to one of the most wrenching, mindless, strategic (or lack of it), and generally outrageous [[bold time]] struggles in Chip's Challenge history. Though proper strategy will solve the level easily as long as one can keep a cool head, Blobnet is easily lost, many times over, by impatience or gross errors that would not occur in any other level. | ||

''Dear Chip, Sorry about all the green blobs. They came from a genetics experiment that didn't quite go right. I walled off this lab quite some time ago, and wouldn't dream of asking you to go in, except that I left 88 chips there. This level requires patience, good timing, patience, and patience. Patiently, Melinda.'' | ''Dear Chip, Sorry about all the green blobs. They came from a genetics experiment that didn't quite go right.

* | * This is not a bold route; a 434 route is available at the [[public TWS]]. It was the first confirmation of the 434 record, and it was a 435 route but for an unnecessary, failed spring step, which caused it to fall to 434.8. | ||
* The annotations explain the given strategies by using live examples, and critique how the route worked. | |||
