Snake The Board Game

Based on the classic video game Snake, slowed down! A remarkable fast-paced strategy board game with unique game mechanics.

From its earliest days, as an arcade game called Blockade in 1976, to its heyday as the premier game on early Nokia cellphones, Snake has captured hearts, minds, and of course, attention. Everyone knows it, most of us played it, in one form or another. It is a classic in the truest sense of the word.

In those 45 years, of course, Snake has continued to evolve. Like the character itself, the game seems like it's constantly changing. There are monochromatic iterations, there are 3D iterations, and there are even iterations that add new background and another layer of narrative to the concept.

No change has ever been as drastic as this one, however. This iteration, unlike any other, takes the concept of Snake and turns it upside down. It is a revolution of the game, breathing another life into the decades-old framework.

It's Snake – The Board Game!

Speed up the evolution, slow down the gameplay.

That is what makes Snake – The Board Game so different from every arcade, phone, and video-game version: because gameplay moves so much more slowly, it takes on a different character. Whereas every other version of Snake has challenged you to think and move as quickly as possible, to keep up with the animations as they get faster and faster, Snake – The Board Game asks you just how much of the board you can understand.

Slowing down doesn't make this game slow, it unlocks a strategic, tactical side of Snake that you've never seen before. In Snake – The Board Game, you need to plan out every move, growing in a way that is going to block your opponent from doing the same.
