The '''teeth''', also known as '''red teeth''', '''angry teeth''' or a '''frog''', is a [[monster]] in [[Chip's Challenge]] that follows [[Chip]] wherever he goes, but only moves every other turn. Which turn they start to move on is dependent on [[odd and even step]]. Fortunately, their navigation skills are poor. The teeth has an almost sentient programming, which makes it the most complex monster in Chip's Challenge (followed by the [[tank]]). In [[Chip's Challenge 2]], angry teeth behave the same way when playing as [[Chip]], but will run away from the player when playing as [[Melinda]].


The '''timid teeth''', also known as '''blue teeth''', is a monster introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]] which behave exactly the same as angry teeth, with one specific exception: Timid teeth will run away from the player when playing as [[Chip]], but will chase the player when playing as [[Melinda]].

== Teeth movement behavior ==
== Teeth movement behavior ==
Like Chip directed by the mouse, teeth use the ''moving'' Chip (it will not chase any others, although it can kill one) as their base point. A teeth moves either vertically or horizontally toward Chip one square at a time, always taking the longer path, and vertically if tied. However, if this move would be illegal because of some obstacle, it will go the other way if that is a legal move, and if not, it will stay put until Chip moves somewhere that allows it to make another move. If a teeth is already on Chip's row or column, obviously there is only one possible move, which will not be taken if it is illegal.
