Description: Chester Cheetah: Too Cool to Fool is a 1992 video game that starred Cheetos mascot Chester Cheetah, only released in North America. The game is composed of simple side-scrolling platform levels. On each level there is a hidden "scooter" part. in game, Chester can dash and stun many enemies by jumping on their heads. The instruction manual contains a popular Engrish that is recognized by many gamers, "As is Chester Cheetah way, is one-person play." The Engrish spawned due to bad translations and an intent to rhyme in a verse form similar to Dr. Seuss' anapestic tetrameter. Curiously, no actual mention of the Cheetos snack food is ever made during the course of the game.
