Inspired by the auto-battler genre, each hero in the snake has a set of classes, and combining enough heroes of the same class together grants additional class bonuses. Heroes can also be upgraded to be more powerful when copies are bought from the shop. == Gameplay == * Your snake can't stop moving, turn it left or right to steer * Your heroes attack automatically when close to enemies * Combine heroes of the same classes together to unlock unique class bonuses * Clearing arenas grants gold, which can be used to hire heroes at the shop * Buying enough copies of the same heroes levels them up, making them more powerful == Features == * 40+ heroes, each with unique attacks and passives * 12+ classes, each giving stat boosts and modifiers to your snake * 40+ passive items, each giving strong global effects to your snake * 25+ levels of increasing difficulty as the run progresses * 15+ achievements * Soundtrack by Kubbi Information Seller:MAZETTE LTD Genre:Action, Arcade Release:Jun 23, 2021 Updated:Aug 17, 2021 Version:1.25 Size:67.4 MB TouchArcade Rating:Unrated User Rating:Unrated Your Rating:unrated Compatibility:HD Universal metalcasket Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze May 24, 2010 11,064 1,340 113 Deepest Circle, Hel #2 metalcasket, Jun 27, 2021 SuperSpooky Member Dec 27, 2018 9 3 3 Male #3 SuperSpooky, Jun 28, 2021 This game is great, I bought it on steam after a podcast recommendation and I ended up sinking 4 hours into it and basically praying that it would get a mobile port. I had no idea it would come out so quickly. It’s a super smart mix of snake and the easiest to digest version of an auto chess leveling system (of what I remember, didn’t really enjoy those games much), there are a ton of units to pick, and then you add on the usual perks and relics you’d expect from the roguelite side of things. Cant recommend it enough. metalcasket Moderator Staff Member Patreon Silver Patreon Gold Patreon Bronze May 24, 2010 11,064 1,340 113 Deepest Circle, Hel #4 metalcasket, Jun 30, 2021 Auto-rotation and the latest PC update have been patched in.

MetaGonzo Well-Known Member May 7, 2009 1,442 257 83 #6 MetaGonzo, Jul 1, 2021 Seems like a great little gem. I’m not quite clear on what’s going on with the classes section of the pre-arena screen but I’m sure I’ll figure it out. Interesting guide at the steam page; I’m guessing it’s either entirely or mostly relevant to the mobile port: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2503872562 One thing I’ve noticed is there’s a bit of slowdown in hectic moments. I know my XS Max isn’t on the cutting edge any more but surely it’s the match of this? Quoad Well-Known Member Apr 17, 2015 1,094 205 63 #7 Quoad, Jul 1, 2021 Each module / unit comes with class card(s). the class section of the screen shows what you have. Fill enough of a class card to unlock a passive bonus. (Tap on the class card to see what this is). basically, it’s a reward for having multiple similar units. Not quite “all yellow” (bc some L2, l3 etc cards of other colours may come with a “yellow” class card as one of two or three class cards). But along those lines. it does pay to be mindful of them.

SNKRX is that game. Just perfection in every sense of the word. This game is special. Like SPECIAL special. If Snake came preinstalled on Nokia devices back in the day, SNKRX should come preinstalled on all modern devices.

I know MC mentioned that but I was thinking it first I’m in the camp of folks who are confused about the class system. I’ve learned more than I knew several days ago when I started playing but it’s still confusing having units of the same type but different colors. I know if I have 3 units of the same color and type they will merge, adding bonus damage, healing, etc. but it gets weird when the color is different but the unit is called the same thing. Hope that makes sense. Does anyone try to upgrade the shop? I usually do… There’s a button in the main hub that says “lock” between “reroll” and the shop level. What does that do, lock orientation?

It’s frustrating as on my first run with clearly zero idea what was going on I got to 22/25. Now I can barely get into the low teens. Obviously I had a great build first time around, but why? How?
