    Besides that in and out of its own its a great puzzle game, with really simple mechanics that can get some complex puzzles.

    There's a lot of different puzzle types, and they all play out great (including those horrid box puzzles which make me jump out of my chair when i finally win them without actually knowing what just happened). You can even create your own puzzles if you wish :)

    Also OMG the undo, there's finally a undo button, no more of that "well i'm screwed" feeling from good ol' chips challenge. :)

    Play it, you won't regret it :D    … Expand

    This is an excellent puzzle game from a grand master of game design.

    I don't see that the PC port is messy, it looks, sounds and works just fine. In fact I was impressed with the clean interface, and the graphics on "fantastic" are more than shiny enough.

    Chuck's Challenge 3D definitely brings back the charm and puzzle design of the original Chip's Challenge. While it's not quite as good as the original, Chuck's Challenge 3D is definitely a lot of fun, and I'd say that it's definitely worth the $9.99 that I paid for it. It includes a level editor and custom puzzles can be shared with friends.

    The interface feels a little clunky, clearly designed for mobile first, but that doesn't mean that it's a bad PC port. The puzzles are fun, the game performs well, and I have fun with it.

    It doesn't appear to support Steam Cloud, meaning that levels that I complete on my laptop won't be synced to my desktop and other computers. This is sort of frustrating, but it's not a deal-breaker.

    In all, it's fun, and I like it.    … Expand

    Another great game from the creator of the classic Chip's Challenge.

    Plus you get to make and share you own levels. There are some amazing level that other players are making.

    I love this game, if u are a fan of puzzle games u will too.

    What is really cool is you can create your own levels and upload them and play other players levels too.

    This is an excellent game that brings up to the level of current games a very lovely old game that a lot of people growth with.

    I've played many hours and I still haven't beaten all the 6 packages, but I also enjoy playing many of the weekly puzzles and the levels made by some particular creators!! Awesome.

    As with most puzzle games, Chucks Challenge 3D won’t necessarily appeal to the hard-core demographic, but there’s no doubt that Niffler has succeeded in rebooting a much loved classic of yesteryear, proving that the concept of crowd funded gaming is here to stay.

    A puzzle game like many others, that falls victim of a messy PC port. It's got a lot of levels, but there are many better alternatives out there.

    Chuck's Challenge has finally made it to Steam, and the puzzles and mazes are better than ever. Chuck Sommerville and his team at Niffler have created the rare followup that not only does justice to the '80s classic, but improves upon it as well.
