That's not quite the way it happened. The programmer who wrote Chipwits
had left Brainpower, and, as they did not have the source code, there
was no way for them to change it. They were, for a while, offering to
act as liaison between Chipwits-fanatics and the programmer.

Now, however, Brainpower is no more. I've been in touch with the founder,
trying to obtain rights to their hypertext product, Architext.
