The player is +embodied as Chex Warrior, a hero attempting to rescue captured Chex +people from evil slime creatures known as Flemoids who have invaded +the Intergalactic Federation of Cereals' mining outpost on the planet +Bazoik. + +The game was made available inside boxes of Chex cereal. It +featured five levels. Because the market for the cereal consisted +largely of children, the game was made to be deliberately non-violent: +for example, the enemies in the game are not killed, but are instead +transported back to their home dimension. + +Chex Quest 2: Flemoids Take Chextropolis is the second installment +in the Chex Quest series, released in 1997. It is an add-on to the +original, as the first Chex Quest is required to play it. + +To play the games, you will need a compatible Doom engine installed. +The recommended engines are gzdoom, zdoom, and crispy-doom. You can +also try odamex, prboom-plus, doomretro, or skulltag, but they're not +100% compatible. You won't need any .wad files from any of the Doom +games, since Chex Quest is a total conversion. + +The package includes both games, wrapper scripts to launch them from +the command line, and desktop entries to launch them from the KDE or +XFCE menu. + +See also: games/chexquest3, for the last game in the series. |
