    To put it simply, "Spy Chameleon" is the "Waiting Game: The Game". The only real challenge comes from waiting. There are also really no puzzles or anything its just....waiting. Waiting for any enemy to move, waiting to finally sneak pass the enemy, its a supplement for challenge. It only gets challenging when you get impatient and start making basic mistakes over and over again.
    What hurt the lack of challenge even more is the fact that there are far too many checkpoints in the very short levels of Spy Chameleon. Some checkpoints are literally four feet from the spawn. Its simply bad level design. It makes an already easy game, even easier.

    1. I will compliment the game on two things: The color swapping ability. Pressing one of four buttons on the ps4 will change the chameleons color to either: red,blue,green, or pink. Its simplistic, but at least, a bit interesting.
    2. The game's art style is solid. Simplistic, but effective.

    Speaking of art, the music in the game is rather repetitive, and slightly annoying. It needed some serious variety. The one or two tracks in the game do fit the game thematically at the very least.

    Overall, the game isn't terrible, but it will not hold your interest for more than an hour or so.

    Challenging game and very confusing at the same time. You have to be able to color coordinate. The game is more frustrating than anything else. There is not that much content or replay value,

    Spy Chameleon presents the players with a series of levels to traverse that require them to avoid detection using the chameleon’s ability to change colour.

    Pretty good stealth puzzle game. Really easy. Needs some character but has some interesting puzzle mechanics I haven't seen before. Good value for the money.

    You need to be near pixel and frame perfect for some of the later levels and challenges. Unfortunately, the controls leave a lot to be desired. This isn't the cheerful simple game I thought it was going to be. I think they missed their target audience.

    Testing your patience
    Spy chameleon is a reaction based puzzle game where you play as a color changing chameleon...
    The game consists of 75 levels and takes around 2 hours to complete
    There is no real story here though you are given a story based objective in each mission..
    A mission consists of 15 levels…
    The difficulty of these levels are pretty up and down...
    The objective of the game is to get to the rooms exit... 1 room is 1 level...
    across the ground there will be carpets, paint, colored tiles…
    And you can use these colors to blend in…
    color changing is simple as it goes off of the button colors on your controller…
    Green, red, pink, and blue
    there are the only buttons you have to worry about as you sneak through the shadows trying to not get caught be the enemies running around the levels…
    There are flies to collect here as well as time challenges for trophies
    But there isn’t much to the game other than blend and don’t get caught…
    The game is pretty enjoyable minus a few extremely frustrating levels that just come out of nowhere…
    My biggest issue with the game is that it is so up and down..
    Most of the levels are extremely easy and then randomly you’ll get hit with a level and a puzzle that the game has not prepared you for up to that point…
    there are a decent amount of checkpoints though which is nice… but still… one level in particular, I felt luck got involved as you’re trying to stop these mice at just the right moment or face an insta death…
    this level almost made me stopbecasue of how frustrating and unfair it felt…
    but the rest of the game I enjoyed..
    It’s simple enough
    and you’re slowly introduced to throwing switches, grabbing keys, hiding in boxes, pushing buttons to move walls… but none of the levels ever felt overwhelming, and things never get too crazy... just the right amount of challenge throughout..
    Except that cheap lab rat level

    Spy Chameleon is a good game, challenging and entertaining enough. Although it will probably not be remembered for its quality, I think it perfectly represents what a video game is: entertaining, at the same time it poses a reasonable challenge to the player. It takes about 10 hours to get the 100%, which is also a nice amount of time.

    voto 66/100.
    raggiunge quasi il 7, è un 6.5+.
    Questo per il protagonista, buffo e carismatico.
    Il Gameplay non è assoluamente innovativo ma sfrutta le peculiarità del personaggio.
    divertente ma alla lunga può stancare, consigliati solo agli amanti del genere.

    This game is a great puzzle and entertainment. It is about waiting for sure, but despite that, it's a very good game.

    Gioco intuitivo, basato su logica e ragionamento
    Nel gioco si è un camaleonte Che dovrà superare ostacoli cambiando colore per nascondere alle telecamere, è un gioco suddiviso in livelli man a mano più difficili
    Consigliato a chi piacciono questi giochi passa tempo

    As with mobile games there are a number of optional objectives to each level that can be completed to earn stars, and those stars give completionists a reason to come back and replay levels. Unfortunately the game really lacks for personality and character, and there’s really nothing that helps this game stand out from the pack.
