Price History of Snake '97

Description of Snake '97

Play Snake like it is 1997. This is a remake of the original Snake, complete with dot-matrix display and monotone sounds. Rewind time and get a dosis of nostalgia that is as addictive (and frustrating) as the original. Play Snake '97 and be prepared to lose some productive hours. Simply launch the app, touch a button and start! Snake '97 features: - old school controls - dot-matrix display - original monotone sounds (bleep bleep) - 9 original and 3 extra difficulty levels - Snake 1 and classic Snake 2 - 7 classic game modes (5110, 3210, 8210, 8850 and 3310, 3410, 7110 with Snake 2) - bonus creatures (Snake 2) - go through the walls! (Snake 2) - 5 original and 2 extra labyrinths (Snake 2) - a high score that cannot be reset (just like the original) The story behind this game is that my smartphone got damaged, requiring me to revert back to an old phone. Suddenly I knew the smartphone was missing something and the idea for a accurate Snake remake was born. Snake '97 is an homage to the classic mobile phone game programmed in 1997. By carefully analyzing the classic gameplay, timing and controls, this Snake '97 remake is one of the most accurate available. If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, feel free to contact me. Have Snake fun! Best regards from Amsterdam, The developer, Willem.

Reviews of Snake '97

  • One of the Only Games I Need!

    This game is great. It gives a great representation of the Nikia phones I love and snake in their respective models. There’s small options you can use to spice up the gameplay but nothing too much. These versions of snake are simple, fun and addicting. Great to pass time and all I need on my phone besides Clash of Clans, RuneScape and Minecraft. Would recommend.
  • Nostalgic & Fun

    I’m happy I finally searched for this game! It’s nearly identical. I loved playing Snake. My only wish was that I could play it with the real Nokia buttons. The sensation is off when using a touch screen as you don’t know for certain if you’ve pressed the right key. All in all its great and definitely takes me back to my high school days with my first Nokia!
  • Good but w/ glitches

    I overall really like the layout but this game, but I have 2 consistent glitches that are frustrating.

    1) When I open the game it’s in a smaller screen size which I like because it’s less finger movement during the game but part way through it’ll switch sizes so I need to adjust finger movement mid-game

    2) Sometimes the line goes through from the bottom to the top or from the side to one side after pressing. I’ll have thought I lost but then it keeps going and hits from above. It’s just confusing glitch that’s been happening more frequently lately.

    Other than these when they happen I really like it
