Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
Set in a futuristic space port, this whimsical action-puzzle game casts the player as the leader of an army of space mice called ChuChus. When the peaceful hub is overrun by hostile space cats known as KapuKapus, the player must strategically deploy their tiny rockets to defend the base. By selecting and launching different types of ChuChus, the player must coordinate attacks to eliminate the feline invaders and secure the port's survival.
Story
Story
In a far away time on a far away planet, there is a Space Port. This Space Port is inhabited by thousands of little ChuChus.
ChuChus aren't ordinary mice. We're space mice!
The things that ChuChus detest more than anything else are KapuKapus.
KapuKapus aren't ordinary cats. We're space cats!
The ChuChus lived happily until one day, when the Space Port became infested with KapuKapu. Oh no! Look at all those cats!
What should we do? Which rocket should we go in? The fate of the ChuChus is in your hands!
The "ChuChu Rocket!" launch countdown has started!

How to Play
Placing Panels
By pressing A and Control Pad simultaneously, you can place the panel in the direction the Control Pad is pressed. For example, press A and up on the Control Pad to place an "▲" panel. Be careful, as nothing happens if you press only the A Button.
In Pro mode, you can place Arrow Panels by pressing A, B, L, or R Button. Each button corresponds to a specific direction, though it may be difficult to get used to.
•
A Button: Places "▲" Panel.
•
B Button: Places "▼" Panel.
•
L Button: Places "◀" Panel.
•
R Button: Places "▶" Panel.
Stage Limits
You can only place up to 3 panels on the stage. If you try to place a 4th panel, the first panel will disappear.
Game Display and Rules
The goal of the game is to use Arrow Panels to lead ChuChus to your Rocket. However, you must not lead KapuKapus to your Rocket.
•
Rocket: Guide the ChuChus to your Rocket.
•
Hatch: Mice and cats come out here.
•
Cursor: The selection indicator.
•
ChuChus: They are simply mice.
•
KapuKapu: Watch out, or they'll eat all the ChuChus!
•
Arrow Panel: Used to guide movement.
How ChuChus Move
Usually, ChuChus run in a straight line. If they bump into a wall, they turn right. If they encounter an Arrow Panel, they turn in the direction indicated by the panel.
Different Sorts of ChuChus
Guiding specific ChuChus into your Rocket triggers special events.
•
? Mark: If you guide a ChuChu with a "?" mark into your Rocket, the roulette wheel will spin and there will be a new game "event."
•
50 Mark: If you guide a ChuChu with a "50" mark into your Rocket, you will get 50 ChuChus.
KapuKapu Rules
If a KapuKapu enters your Rocket, you will lose some of your ChuChus. Therefore, you should guide KapuKapus to your opponent's Rocket instead.
Arrow Panel Durability
Arrow Panels can be damaged by KapuKapus.
•
One head-on bump from a KapuKapu causes an Arrow Panel to shrink.
•
Two head-on bumps from a KapuKapu cause an Arrow Panel to break and vanish.
