====================================================================

My name is Steve Ward and I will be your Chu2 puzzle guide for
today.  This is my first FAQ and it's supposed to help you solve all
of the puzzles in the US version of the Dreamcast game Chu Chu
Rocket.  I HIGHLY recommend that you try to complete the puzzles
yourself because you get a greater sense of accomplishment by not
depending on others to succeed.

If you want to know how to play Chu Chu Rocket, RTFM!

I got this game on March 8, 2000 and after 1 week of play, I solved
all of the puzzles in Chu Chu Rocket's Puzzle 1P mode.

All the solutions herein are arranged in the order that they are
unlocked: Normal, Hard, Special, and Mania.

When viewing this document, you should use a fixed-space font like
Fixedsys or Courier New and also use at least 75 characters per line.

I created this FAQ using Notepad and WordPad, so it's best viewed
using those programs.

Each stage has the type of layout as the picture below:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
                                 |

                                 |
----------------------------------

There are only 4 different available panels (arrows) in Chu Chu
Rocket:  Down, Left, Up, and Right.

All arrows described in this FAQ will be abbreviated as follows:
D= down, L= left, U= up, R= right.

The rockets in each stage are denoted by "O" and the black spaces
are "X".

If an arrow should go in the top right corner, I would say that it
should be placed in "L1" in the solution section.
If there is only 1 apparent solution, I'll just insert the arrow
indicator(s) into the picture of the stage as well as give the
solution down below.  But, if there is more than 1 solution, I'll
just give all the possible combinations of arrow placement in the
solution section.

If there are multiple adjacent spaces where an arrow could go, you
will see the outer-most spaces separated by a dash "-".  For
example, if an arrow can go in any space in the region from
B2 to K9, then you will see: "B2-K9".

* means I got a part of the solution from IGN Game Guides
** means I got the entire solution from IGN Game Guides
