Platformer for the NES. It's based off the popular Disney cartoon, which aired in the 1990's.

Overview

Chip 'N Dale: Rescue Rangers is one of many successful collaborations between Disney and Capcom. It is the video game adaptation of the popular Disney cartoon by the same name.

The lab.

Much like the cartoon, the game revolves around Chip, Dale, and their companions in the Rescue Rangers, Monterey "Monty" Jack, the female mechanic Gadget Hackwrench, and the housefly Zipper. The game takes you through several varied locations on your quest to stop the evil, suit-wearing feline "Fat Cat". Much like other Capcom NES games the game had a very memorable soundtrack with catchy tunes that drove the gameplay forward.

Gameplay / Mechanics

Stage 1, Neighborhood. Chip has picked up an apple.

The game is a basic platformer much in the same vein as other Capcom action/platforming games like Mega Man or Duck Tales. The game utilizes the dimunitive size of the characters to create large environments. Before your quest to stop Fat Cat and rescue Gadget is over you will see the garden stage, the kitchen stage, the casino, the factory, a huge tree and many more. You select them from a Bionic Commando like map and all will have you jumping on huge things in the environment like books, cash registers or trashcans. The game features both single player or 2 player Co-op. You collect Flower "cards" that will often require some searching under boxes to find them all.

The game also draws on the success of Super Mario Bros 2, specifically the mechanic of picking up and throwing stuff. The same mechanic is in Rescue Rangers where you can pick up objects like apples (or the small boxes that are always scattered around the levels) and throw them at the enemy to stun or knock them out. You can also throw your Co-op partner, Zipper acts as your invincibility star. On the rare occasion when you find him, you can mow down everything in your path.

The game includes many big and memorable bosses and defeating them often includes picking up objects and throwing them at their weak spots .
