Chase

About

Chase is a no-nonsense action game built for the NES that feels like a lost relic from the 8-bit era. You control a character sprinting through tight, maze-like levels while dodging obstacles and enemies that close in from all sides. The controls are crisp but unforgiving, requiring quick reflexes and precise timing. Each stage ramps up the pressure with faster pacing and tighter corridors, turning every run into a white-knuckle sprint. Despite its simple premise, Chase stands out for its brutal difficulty and polished execution. It’s a tribute to old-school arcade design, where challenge comes from precision not frustration. Shiru’s reputation for technical skill shines through in the smooth animation and clever level layouts. While there’s no online chatter or modern ratings to reference, it’s a favorite among homebrew circles for nailing the NES’s classic tension. Short, sharp, and demanding, it’s the kind of game that leaves you breathless and eager to try again.
