![]() ![]() Select any of the 3 birds to ride, then beat a series of screens where you press the mouse button to go up and release the mouse button to go down. Try getting the small creature to do both of his actions, then try to move the green creature and you will succeed for a while, but then the cherry will be stolen once more. Level 5Ĭlick on the green creature, then try to dive across to reach the cherry. Click on the small creature and use him to jump up, then jump down on to the sign to free the cherry again. Try pushing the sign sideways, then click on the small creature and get him to dig around the sign. Talk to the big yellow creature 3 times Blabber. Try pulling the tree, then run up the tree and you will successfully bring the whole thing down. Keep walking to the right until you appear on the very left of the screen, then grab the cherry. Walk towards the cherry, but a small creature will push it away from you. Now click on the water-drinking creature at the top of the screen twice to finally wake Chuchel up. The game loads quickly too, so you can get straight into the fun.Start by clicking on random things a total of 7 times to attempt to wake the sleeping Chuchel Good Morning. The only technical issue came during one of the aiming mini-games when the mouse cursor remained hidden for a few minutes. Like their previous games, Chuchel was built in Flash, so it will run on a toaster. There isn’t great incentive to replay although there might be a few missed animations to see in a subsequent play through. Due to the brevity, there is minimal repetition, so it remains fresh for most of that time. You want him to succeed, but just not right away.īut the end comes quickly the game takes around 150 minutes to complete. There are many slapstick moments to enjoy, like when Chuchel is squashed flat or blown across the screen. He'll lose arms (temporarily) trying to pull the cherry, and he'll charge headfirst into bigger targets and then scream in frustration after failure. Watching him be denied time and time again is a pleasure because he can be rather expressive. ![]() Even though the main character doesn’t speak, he is endearing because of his basic goal and reactions. ![]() Humor and quirkiness is the game's most consistent strength. They are best thought of as rewards for completing the preceding mini-games and puzzles, although the other two components have funny animated scenes to a lesser degree. They tend to be peculiar scenarios of the two main characters tumbling after the cherry or being hassled by other creatures. While there are a couple of decent puzzles with funny moments, solving them rarely is more involving than clicking things and seeing what shakes.Īnimated scenes might require clicking to keep things in motion, but they are basically linear stages that require no skill. Hints can be used if you get stuck, but the challenges are never complex enough to need them. There is a puzzle where you swap between three dimensions (by putting on hats) just to pluck the cherry from a cage. In one puzzle you need to squeeze toothpaste to create a snake that will scare a toothbrush in order to climb down a pipe. So you have to play around with objects or characters and watch hilarious scenes play out when things fail. The revered cherry might be on screen but it cannot be accessed directly. These mini-games are usually short and sweet, but they are also shallow and randomly thrown into the mix without much overarching structure.Īdventure puzzles make up a good portion of the game, and their designs are similar to Botanicula or Machinarium, although without as much depth. Flappy Bird gets a nod too and it works fine because of the lively music that is in sync with the action. The Angry Birds adaptation involves bouncing Kekel off drums to knock over a structure. In Tetris, you have to avoid blocks and bombs that descend automatically. Most of the mini-games resemble famous video games, like Pacman and Space Invaders, but they aren’t usually direct copies. These are distributed in approximately equal parts and are connected by the hunt for the sacred cherry. ![]() There are 30 stages in the game and each is one of three different types: mini-games, adventure puzzles, and animated scenes. Kekel is a mouse-like animal and some of the adventure is spent chasing him down and getting into scuffles. He’s not the only one hunting the cherry, as his rival, Kekel, wants it just as bad. So he follows it, through unconnected screens that have a mixture of basic tasks. But the cherry he wants to eat is taken by a massive hand in the sky-it becomes the forbidden fruit. Chuchel is also the name of the main character he’s a black orb of hair with limbs and a hat. ![]()
