A singular 3D platformer in which Dave the chameleon uses his tongue to grab, swing and solve puzzles. The concept feels fresh, the six worlds brim with ideas, yet the adventure is short and the difficulty uneven. A pretty little N64 secret worth rediscovering.

Is Chameleon Twist still worth playing in 2026?

Chameleon Twist is a Sunsoft 3D platformer in which Dave, a chameleon, uses his long extending tongue to grab enemies, swing and solve puzzles in colorful worlds. The tongue mechanic, original and fun, brings real freshness to movement and combat. The game stays fairly short and the difficulty moderate. For fans of retro 3D platformers with an ingenious central idea and likable mascots of the N64 era, it is an endearing curiosity, carried by its singular concept.
