The project
Project Overview
Read the board first, then tap.
Each level is a handcrafted maze packed with snakes that block each other's way out. Tap a snake and it slides along its path. Tap in the wrong order and the board seizes up. The solution is always there for players who look before they move.
We kept the mood calm and the animation smooth while the logic stays sharp. For the moments a player gets stuck, we added boosters that help without handing over the answer, which keeps progress moving and supports the game's in-app purchases.
