History VideoGame / ChameleonTwist

* BossBattle: Every stage ends with one.

* LevelAte: Kids' Land

* ToyTime: Toy Land.

* BigCreepyCrawlies: Ant Land from the first game is full of them as well as the spiders in Jungle Land during the second game.

* OptionalBoss: In order to unlock the Black Chameleon for Battle Mode, you have to defeat him first. He can be found hidden behind a barred off door in Bomb Land that requires you collect all 5 carrots in the game to unlock.
* TheVeryDefinitelyFinalDungeon: Ghost Castle is the final level in the game, and also has a Pool mini-game and a hidden BossRush where you can refight every boss (except Black Chameleon).

[[folder: Chameleon Twist 2]]
* AmericanKirbyIsHardcore: The second game, but downplayed. The Japanese version used the character designs from the first game with similar box art. The American version uses a head design that looks more like an actual chameleon and the box art uses a darker level for its background. It's still supposed to be cute, but less so than the Japanese version.
* AmusementPark: Carnival Land in the second game.
* BigCreepyCrawlies: Ant Land from the first game is full of them as well as the spiders in Jungle Land during the second game.
* AndYourRewardIsClothes: Collecting all 20 coins in each level of ''Chameleon Twist 2'' gives your character a new costume to wear.
* DubInducedPlotHole: No attempt is made to explain why the Chameleons don't look like they did in the first game or why Davy and Jack have swapped skin colors.

* GreenHillZone: Jungle Land and Sky Land.

* NoPlotNoProblem: A chameleon and his friends follow a white rabbit into a weird series of fantasy worlds, where they inexplicably take on strange, humanoid forms and must trek through the worlds to get back home. That's it.
** Many fans assume the monsters are terrorizing the worlds and the rabbit got the chameleons to follow him into the worlds to stop them, but in the end neither game gives any explanation on anything. In fact, they actually imply the adventures themselves are purely for fun and the monsters are just playing along.

* ShiftingSandLand: Sand Castle and Pyramid Land.
* ShoutOut: The idea of following a white rabbit wearing a coat and pocket watch into a strange land [[Literature/AliceinWonderland seems very familiar...]]
* SlippySlideyIceWorld: Ice land, obviously.
* SpritePolygonMix: The standard enemies and various spherical objects are 2D sprites while everything else is in full 3D.

* {{Tagline}}: The sequel has the phrase "High Voltage Screaming Action". One can only imagine how exactly this accurately describes the game.

* BossRush: If you collect enough crowns in the main story, another level will be unlocked in which you can battle every boss again but they are faster and there are more enemies trying to kill you.

* DubInducedPlotHole: No attempt is made to explain why the Chameleons don't look like they did in the first game or why Davy and Jack have swapped skin colors.

* BonusBoss: If you collect enough crowns in the main story, another level will be unlocked in which you can battle every boss again but they are faster and there are more enemies trying to kill you.

* {{Tagline}}: The sequel has the very random phrase "High Voltage Screaming Action" plastered above the title on the box (the Japanese version) and the in-game title screen (all versions). One can only imagine how exactly this accurately describes the game.

* NoPlotNoProblem: A chameleon and his friends follow a white rabbit into a weird series of fantasy worlds, and must trek through them and defeat the monsters in them to get back home. That's it.

* CartoonCreature: What exactly Davy and his friends turn into when they enter the fantasy worlds for the first time is anyone's guess. They're apparently still chameleons, though, which is probably why they got designs closer to chameleons in the American version of the sequel, to make that more obvious.

* NoPlotNoProblem: A chameleon and his friends follow a white rabbit into a weird series of fantasy worlds, and now fact trek through them and and defeat the monsters in them to get back home. That's it.
** Many fans assume the enemies and bosses are terrorizing the worlds and you are stopping them, but in the end neither game gives any explanation on ANYTHING and actually imply the whole adventures themselves are purely for fun.

* NoPlotNoProblem: You are a chameleon who finds themself in a weird series of dimensions. Get through these dimensions to get home. That's literally it. Many fans assume the enemies and bosses are terrorizing the worlds and you are stopping them, but in the end neither game gives any explanation on ANYTHING and actually imply the whole adventures themselves purely for fun.

* AdaptationDeviation: The international versions of ''Chameleon Twist 2'' had the chameleons' appearances altered to resemble real chameleons, as opposed to their cartoonish/cutesy appearances in the first game. Davy's color was also changed to green, likely to match the colors of real life chameleons, while Jack became the blue chameleon. The Japanese version retained their original designs.

''Chameleon Twist'' and ''Chameleon Twist 2'' are two games created by Japan Supply System, published by Creator/{{Sunsoft}}, and released for the UsefulNotes/Nintendo64. In these two games, you play as a chameleon named Davy (or one of his friends, Jack, Fred or Linda) who [[FollowTheWhiteRabbit follows a white rabbit]] into a strange world and [[AnthropomorphicTransformation changes form]]. Now the only way the chameleon can get home is to follow the rabbit and get out of any situation they get stuck in by using their tongue.

The second game involved one of the four chameleons being launched into the sky by the same rabbit and just exploring.
