ChuChu Rocket!

ChuChu Rocket! is a fast-paced puzzle game about routing mice (ChuChus) into rockets while cats (KapuKapus) chase them across a grid. Both species move automatically, turning right at walls and corners—you don't control them directly. Instead, you place directional arrows on the board to steer traffic. In multiplayer (up to four players), you're racing to funnel ChuChus into your own rocket while redirecting cats toward opponents' pads. The catch: each player can only have three arrows on-screen at once, so dropping a fourth replaces your oldest placement. This forces constant repositioning as mice and cats zip around at high speed. Matches get messy fast—one misplaced arrow can send your mice into a rival's rocket or flood your pad with cats. It's about reading movement patterns and reacting before the next wave arrives. Works best if you enjoy spatial puzzles under time pressure.
