The '''fireball''', called a '''fire box''' in [[Chip's Challenge 2]], is a propeller-like [[monster]] in [[Chip's Challenge]] that functions similarly to the [[glider]]. It moves in a straight line until it hits any obstacle, and then turns right, left, or backwards, in that order of priority. Should ''everything'' be blocked, it will not move until it is released. Fireballs survive fire, but die in [[water]] and are subject to [[bomb]]s. In CC2, fire boxes also avoid [[turtle]]s and survive active [[flame jet]]s.

The following diagram illustrates these properties:

The fireball moves upwards, ignoring the fire, until it hits the wall where it turns to its right. The fireball continues moving to the right until hitting the rightmost wall, where it tries to turn to ''its'' right, finds another wall, and turns to its left. It continues upwards, hitting the level edge, turns right, and finally drowns in the water.

== Trivia ==
* The fireball was first seen in [[Lesson 5]], where it was cloned by a [[pink ball]] to securely guard the [[red key]] until Chip released the ball.
* Although the fireball in the MS Chip's Challenge, seen in the infobox, gives no indication of its direction in actual play; the adaptation of the fireball into [[Tile World]] allowed the directions to be deduced.
