Summary
ChuChu Rocket! has tons of new puzzles, new gameplay features, and you can still play against three of your friends. You've got to keep those big hungry cats (KapuKapus) away from the mice (ChuChus). You direct the frantic little ChuChus with arrows, but the KapuKapus aren't far behind. You may rack up points saving ChuChus only to lose big if a KapuKapu gets into your rocket. If you manage to keep the felines at bay, your rocket will take to the skies as the winner! [Sega]

This is not a game you need in your library - this is a game everyone *must* have.

Awesome. The Sonic Team title has it all 4 player linkable battle, create-a-stage, create-a-character, and some of the best darn puzzles that ever made it to a portable.

Simply put Chu Chu is sheer simplicity yet devilishly tough gaming perfection.

The biggest hurdle for players to get over is simply the gameplay itself. Chu Chu Rocket isn't very forgiving, as players are basically dropped in the middle of the game and left to fend for themselves

When it comes down to it, Chu Chu delivers on almost all fronts.

So ingenious, yet simple in its execution that it would have succeeded on almost any platform. In spite of a few flaws, it is damn near a match made in heaven.

Unfortunately, the game is let down slightly by a rather annoying control problem by only having one button to lay down arrows, you need to keep pressing it repeatedly to switch direction.

Highly addictive and highly cute. [Feb 2003, p.97]

The GBA handles the humble graphics and Disney-sweet music without breaking a sweat, and the controlwhile less elegant than the Dreamcastswill feel comfortable to "Tetris" vets.

It'll take you a little while to get used to the controls, but once you do, you'll find that ChuChu Rocket offers a lot of value and a lot of fun for moments or hours at a time.
