Snakecremental Reviews

It isn't the worst game but it is too grindy, too repetitve and the skill tree is a bunch of 10% upgrades instead of anything interesting. The gameplay has mild strategy, basically you need to build up your armor and the best way to do that changes as you unlock new upgrades however that isn't enough to keep the game fresh. Some different level layouts or objectives could have made this game a lot better. Also the snake feels unresponsive it isn't the biggest problem because you can buffer inputs but yeah it is a shame that it played better on the 3310.

Steam Deck Incompatibility. Unfortunately, the joystick controls don't input every time; it appears to be due to some issue with inputs not having follow-through when the snake is incrementing a square over (during which, of course, the snake can't change direction). This severely limits playability on Steam Deck.

I guess it's worth the money, but have fun trying to get the 100%. It's literally impossible or it just DRAGGGGSSS so fucking badly

Way too grindy barely an hour in. Runs where you fill up 90% of the screen give you enough resources for one to two small upgrades. It's like a worse Nodebuster.

Awesome concept and a lot of fun to grind through the early stages. But once you hit Yellow or Pink, the difficulty curve spikes hard. Progress becomes nearly impossible without investing an unreasonable amount of hands-on time. Great potential—but the late-game balance needs serious work.

Dear readers, even though yes, this was a pretty good game with pretty fun to find achievements, there is a big outstanding issue with the game. Towards the late/end of the game, it takes way to long and is SUPER boring to grind out the currencies. I spent LITERAL hours grinding and it still wasn't enough. If you are fine with games where you have to grind for a while then I would recommend this game. On the other hand, if you do not enjoy games where you have lengthy grinding sessions, don't get this game.

in short: fun long: its really good (and i love it), i really like games with gigantic upgrade trees that go on for who knows how long, and this game is exactly that! great job dev team for this game (and also artists)

Don't think I can recommend this game as is, as a fan of Incremental games my least favorite part is when the game just grinds to a HALT, and this game hits that hard, particularly around the end of Yellow for me. It would take several "perfect runs" (IE growing my snake large enough to cover half the tiles) to afford a small upgrade. Game was fun but once I hit that point it just felt like a chore to go through so much just for a slightly higher chance for a critical to appear.

Good idea, but too grindy and the default controls on Steam Deck are bad.

Great concept, really liked the game loop, but there is one problem - if you get several upgrades, you can make the game giga hard, almost impossible to play for yourself. Big thumbs down for this
