![]() The background music for Chuzzle is simple and upbeat without becoming completely annoying (if you do find it annoying, you can always toggle the music track off in the Options screen). I don't recommend the smaller settings, though, as some of the detail which makes this game so enjoyable is lost on the smaller scale. The game is also optimized for full-screen play but it can be set to open in a window using set window dimensions. ![]() One nice feature is the optional setting for colorblind players in this setting, each color of chuzzle is marked by a different symbol. On a technical note, the colors are optimized for 16 bit color and players are warned that the game may not display properly under other settings. It's clear the designers put in a lot of effort to give the chuzzles - little more than balls of fur with eyes - a lot of personality. Aside from fashion, the chuzzles also squeak, sneeze, glare, or giggle depending on the player's actions or inaction if you walk away from the game without pausing it, the chuzzles will actually fall asleep. Random chuzzles also flaunt their fashion sense by wearing outrageous sunglasses - too bad the glasses don't earn the player any extra points. Explode a super chuzzle and watch the whole board shake. The fur on each chuzzle ripples, eyes blink and follow the mouse pointer, and when the chuzzles explode, fur flies across the screen. Finally, there is Mind Bender, which is a lot like those little tray puzzles where you move one line at a time until the picture is correct.Īs with most PopCap games, the graphics in Chuzzle are high resolution and rich in detail despite the simple subject matter. Speed Chuzzle pits the player against a timer that is sure to raise blood pressure Zen Chuzzle does the opposite, lulling the player into a calm state of being with a never ending shuffle of the furry creatures. Four main modes of play are available: "Classic," "Speed," "Zen," and "Mindbender."īuilding on the free online version of Chuzzle (a.k.a "Classic Chuzzle"), Chuzzle Deluxe offers two levels of play for Classic Chuzzle and adds three other variations on the game. The object of the game is to remove Chuzzles from the board, by arranging them so that three or more of the same color are grouped together. The Chuzzle playfield is full of cute, colorful, blobs of fur, called "Chuzzles," that come alive through their voices, animations, and googley eyes. If you like match-three games, it's a decent offering.This action-puzzle game of online origin was developed by PopCap, the creators of the popular Bejeweled. In the end however, you can 'cheat' somewhat by just moving the Chuzzles in any old direction and the law of averages means you're bound to score points.Ĭhuzzle Deluxe is a fun game with a bouncy soundtrack and a handful of fun playing modes. ![]() Otherwise, as the name suggests, Speed Chuzzle is perhaps the other particularly challenging mode as it sees you match Chuzzles in a race against the clock. There are 4 game modes to Chuzzle Deluxe - Classic Chuzzle, Speed Chuzzle, Zen Puzzle, and Mind Bender, which is perhaps the most challenging as you have to match the Chuzzles in specified patterns. If you get to the point where you simply find yourself without another move, you can use a limited number of 'Scrambles' which reset or shakeup the board. In addition, some bigger (you could say 'fatter') Chuzzles end up taking up two rows at once which may or may not work in your advantage. These involve puzzle locks that randomly appear and lock the Chuzzles in place. ![]() The only obstacles to your progress are 'no more moves' scenarios.
