ARCADE / SNAKE

Hoopsnake

Classic snake, come full circle: close your body into a loop and catch everything inside at once.

ABOUT

Hoopsnake keeps everything people love about snake and adds one idea from the old folk tale of the hoop snake, which bites its own tail and rolls away like a wheel: close your body into a loop and everything inside is caught at once.

Steer, eat and grow, and set up loops that catch several apples or beetles for a multiplier. Keep eating quickly to raise a streak. Avoid the walls and yourself.

The 30-level Journey follows Little Hoop through The Orchard, The Dry Wash, The Tidal Flats, The Deep Woods and The Fairgrounds, then Grandma Coil's Trials as a postgame chapter.

Twelve modes — Classic, Hoop, Wraparound, Mason, Warp rings, Tide, Lantern, Roundup, Rivals, Sprint, Zen and Custom — plus a Daily challenge and two-player Versus and Co-op on one device or against the computer.

47 trophies unlock snakes, boards and foods, and sync to your TrySomeGames account when you are signed in. Version 1.0.0.3 is in English and works with keyboard, swipes, an on-screen pad and gamepads.
