Great Videogames Through The Ages
|
| Chuckie Egg |
Published by A&F software in 1983, Chuckie Egg has the classic arcade mix of simple graphics and sound with addictive gameplay. You play a little yellow farmer who must negotiate various platforms and ladders in order to collect the golden eggs scattered about the screen. Collect all the eggs and you progress onto the next level where you must start again. Opposition comes in the form of wandering chickens and, after completing a certain number of levels, you play through the same screens, only this time you're pursued by a giant chick that's released from its cage at the top of the screen.
A sequel was released a few years later, but it's testament to the sheer addictiveness of the original that we've been playing it in the office all week, despite being surrounded by the latest cutting-edge videogames, and so we welcome Chuckie Egg into our Hall of Fame.
