There are two facets to optimization: finding the optimal route and executing it. Finding the optimal route can be purely theoretical and helped by tools like [[SuperCC]]. However, many bold routes, especially for older [[level set]]s like [[Chip's Challenge 1|CC1]] and [[Chip's Challenge Level Pack 2|CCLP2]], are publicly available as a solution in the [[public TWS]] or as an [[AVI]], making the act of independently finding a bold route unnecessary. Executing a route is both skill and luck-based and frequently requires techniques like [[boosting]] or the exploitation of glitches like the [[Mouse Panel Glitch]]. The difficulty in finding and route and executing it are often independent: routing [[Doublemaze]] is simple but it is one of the hardest to execute, but routing [[Lemmings]] is chaotic but simple to execute once the route has been found.
