About

Snake Smash 3D

Read full description

Grow. Clash. Smash the tower. Snake Smash 3D is a snake game you can actually win. Eat to grow, out-size the rival snakes around you, then ram the tower at the end of every arena until it comes crashing down. Tilt to steer, tap to unleash powers, and see how far you can climb. HOW IT PLAYS Your snake never stops. Sweep up glowing food to grow longer, and watch the ring around every rival: green means you can swallow it whole, red means get out of the way. Reach the tower, circle it to charge a coil combo, then bite it down chunk by chunk. Bigger snakes smash faster, so feed up before the finish. GATES THAT CHANGE THE RUN Gates come in pairs you can't skip: a safe x2 on one side, a tempting +N on the other, often with a rival lurking behind it. Every gate shows your new length before you commit. ARENAS THAT CHANGE SHAPE From level 4 the corridor twists into hourglasses, crossbars and winding bends where rivals gather. Milestone towers are guarded by the King, a gold boss snake. POWERS ON TAP - Speed Boost: outrun anything - Shield: seconds of invincibility - Shed Skin: shrink but keep your power - Super Food Magnet: pull in food from across the arena - Freeze: stop every enemy snake in its tracks TILT OR JOYSTICK Steer by tilting your phone, hands-free, with powers on tap. Prefer a thumb? Switch to the joystick any time, even mid-run. COLLECT SNAKES Ten snakes, from the starter Viper to Tiger, Galaxy, Lava, Frost and the crowned Golden King, each with its own stats, plus trails and headwear to make yours unmistakable. SOMETHING NEW EVERY DAY Three daily missions, a daily challenge with a twist, a free gift every four hours and a chest every five levels. Keep your streak alive for bigger rewards. COMPETE AND SHARE Climb the global leaderboard, win coins in the weekly league, and compare scores with friends on Game Center. Share your best run as a picture straight from the results screen, and invite a friend to revive when a rival gets you. Free to play.
