A Windows 10 PC and Mobile version of the classic 2D puzzle game Chip's Challenge is now available in the Windows Store.
The game was actually released first as a launch title for the defunct Atari Lynx portable console in 1989, but became more popular on Windows when Microsoft included a port of Chip's Challenge in its Best of Microsoft Entertainment Pack for Windows in 1995. Here's a quick description of the game (via Reddit):
149 increasingly difficult levels, including a few hidden ones, await Chip in this tile-based puzzle game. Use tools such as keys, and special shoes to bypass obstacles. Manipulate switches to and use dirt blocks to build bridges across waterways. Avoid enemy creatures, grab all the computer chips in the level, and hurry to the exit: On top of everything else, there's a time limit!
The source code for the Windows 10 UWP version is also available to download at GitHub.
