Among aficionados of this type of puzzle game, the Windows version (usually referred to as the [[MS ruleset|MS]] version) of Chip's Challenge is famous for its [[glitch]]es and [[busted level]]s. This was a result of changed mechanics from [[Lynx ruleset|Lynx]] to MS and little playtesting in the MS version. Although there were many levels made easier, such as [[Scoundrel]], some levels became far more difficult; the level that would become the [[Spirals corruption]] had to be changed because the [[walker]]s would spread far quicker under MS rules, and levels with extensive use of [[hot block]]s such as [[Block N Roll]] and [[Special]] became frustrating trial and error challenges to solve due to the inability to [[Block slapping|block slap]]. | Among aficionados of this type of puzzle game, the Windows version (usually referred to as the [[MS ruleset|MS]] version) of Chip's Challenge is famous for its [[glitch]]es and [[busted level]]s.
