'''Key Pyramid''' is the 1st level in [[Chip's Challenge Level Pack 1]], and the first of the [[lesson level]]s. This level is primarily centered around emulating what [[Lesson 1]] accomplished in the original Chip's Challenge - teaching the player all about [[key]]s and [[Computer chip|chip]]s and how to use them. Fortunately, much like its CC1 counterpart, it is impossible to [[cook]] Key Pyramid, meaning the only way for the player to die would be to let the [[Time limit|timer]] run out.

For the fastest solution that beats the level in 32 seconds, there is not much thinking involved - more or less just a simple matter of running back and forth to collect more keys that unlock more chips. However, the one thing that may be worth noting is that when you collect the [[green key]], you must return to get the [[red key]] before going down and collecting the two chips below the green key, such that when you return with the red key, you can collect all three chips in the southeast in one go.

"No clue," he said, squinting blearily at the sterile [[tile]]s and plain gray [[wall]]s surrounding him. "I was hoping you could tell me. Who are you, anyway?"

There was a startled pause; then she replied in hurt tones, "Are you all right, Chip? Don't you know me - [[Melinda]], your friend and fellow Bit Buster?"

Melinda...the name stirred a strange rush of warm feeling in him. An almost-recognition, vague as a dream. "I...don't know. I'm all right...but everything's hazy. I can't seem to remember anything! What am I even doing here?"

With a crackle of static the speaker shut off. Feeling very alone, Chip turned his attention to the room surrounding him. Two locked doors of differing colors led into the unknown, and there between them lay what must be the promised hint. Gathering his resolve, he went over to read it. His past lay frighteningly shrouded in mystery; but he sensed that answers waited in the Challenge before him. Could he be clever enough and strong enough to solve the puzzles both ahead and behind? There was only one way to find out....
