A simple, but very fun puzzle game with casual gameplay, very straight forward puzzles and cute sneks. Super short, only takes around 3 to 4 hours to beat. Only downside I can think of is the music can get repetitive and annoying after several minutes, so maybe play it on mute. Otherwise, I highly recommend it for casual puzzle lovers!

Casual puzzle game, for the most part too easy but fun, harder level would help because for me this game is just a time killer.
Can't run in full screen mode and awful music are mos def a minus.
Recommend if you are new to puzzle game genre or just want an easy puzzle game with 2 or 3 tricky levels.

I bought A Snake's Tale out of multiple yearnings at once:

-Despair for a game where I can finally play as a snake- a diagetically-portrayed one, mind you, not just a sequence of squares chasing dots;

-A good puzzle game;

-A growing liking for smaller-project titles due to my chronic inability to afford any of the AAA games or the hardware to run them;

-An eagerness to support a fellow Austinite, and aspiring game creator.

In each of these, I say A Snake's Tale delivers.
---

Turns out this game is a great brain-builder. We learn the rules as we go, and the simple ruleset is used to great versatility.

This is definitely a game for one's patience and one's willingness to try different combinations of movements. If, like me, you have a habit in puzzle-like scenarios of just spamming keys and hoping to brute-force things, this simple step-based puzzler will humble you shortly.

The solutions themselves are very creative. I would strongly like to attend a seminar delivered by A Snake's Tale's developer about logic and spacial reasoning; his mind is one to be envied that he was able to put each of these together.

The fact of playing as a snake takes backseat to the puzzling itself, although it does have more loyalty to snakes than the only other snake-protagonist-claiming game/s I know of do. No fruits here; the food you'll find are eggs for example.

--

There is no acutely claimed story, in case it isn't obvious already. However, oddly enough, the level names; the way that the grid hands off from level to level; the different biomes and the different challenges and aesthetic they present; the one or two special snake types who can do something the others cannot; and a sense of personality that comes of the snakes going out of their way to make room for each other; each make it feel like a story experience, simple yet strong, and it really does feel in my opinion like we're taking this little rattlesnake- or, these rattlesnakes- for an adventure in a world where snakes have begun to evolve altruism.

I strongly recommend this title for anyone eager to build their minds - and/or keep theirs sharp - and if you like snakes, it's a welcome bonus.

This is a simple but charming game about helping snakes out of tight spots. I've always loved snakes, and am happy to see them star in more games. The movement mechanics are quite satisfying: I played with a mouse and it was simplicity itself to move each snake around by clicking and dragging on its head. The mechanics never got in the way of a sudden realization about how to solve a puzzle (the addition of an 'undo' button is also very much appreciated). It adds some innovative mechanics, too: there are eggs which, when eaten, expand a snake by one tile (expected), but there are also anti-eggs which decrease a snake by one tile, which make for some entertaining puzzles. (I laughed out loud the first time I saw a two-segment snake eat one and poof out of existence!) Other levels introduce buttons which must be held down to open the exit burrow, water which only some snakes can traverse, and bizarre two-headed snakes which can advance in either direction, all of which shake up the gameplay in different ways.

According to Steam it took me 1.7 hours to complete so it's not a long game, but it's well-worth its low asking price, and doesn't outstay its welcome. I also got it partly because I heard it was written in Rust and wanted to see how it played, and it's been…well, fine. No problems or bugs that I encountered. It also ran fine on my Debian machine.

This is a cute little snake game! I would love to see more levels. Some are kind of difficult but the game has some cool functions and quirks with the puzzle and mechanics.

A short and sweet puzzle game, took me about 4 hours to complete, with the last 3 of them taking as much time as the other 97%. Growing up on the mobile version of snake, this was certainly entertaining, and brought some simple memories back.

Well worth the price!

Simplistic, yet good price to game play ratio. Gave me a few hours to wrap my head around some of the puzzles.

Although the thematic of levels is sometimes seems quite random, it does not get too much in the face.

If I were to rate it, I would say a 6/10, since many puzzles are simple and only a hand full can be a challenge.

So if you are looking for a simple time waster I will recommend this game for you.

Runs smoothly, gameplay is fine.

The game is a barebones experience: you jump right into the fray and as the game progresses what you get is the same gameplay but with more elements. Simple, not bad, but for me not worth the price I paid. Nevertheless, if you like puzzles, I think it's worth a shot.

I bought it because it was done in Rust and I wanted to see what the author achieved with it, in that sense, I did get what I paid for.

A brilliant, polished little puzzle game. I love this kind of thing! Inexpensive, very nicely presented, and you can finish it in an evening so it stays feeling fresh.

It reminds me a lot (in a good way) of the physical puzzle game "Rush Hour" which I played a lot when I was younger.

Looking forward to seeing what else m12y makes in the future!

A short-ish casual puzzle game with simple mechanics while still providing a decent challenge. It took me 2½ hours to complete 100%.

In the game you control snakes, and your task is to manouver the main snake to it's den. There are a couple of types of snakes that determine the possible moves. You'll need to move all the snakes to get a path to the den. There are also eggs that change the length of the snake that eats one, and buttons that need to be pressed to gain access to the den. This game is like a more free-form version of Klotski.

The technical aspects of the game leave a bit to be desired. Music is noticeably louder in the level selection screen than in the puzzles, and there's no volume control besides a simple mute. As a matter of personal preference, I found the music and sound effects to be a bit in-your-face and harsh considering the game genre. There's also no control for full-screen or windowed mode, which forced the game to full-screen on a dual monitor setup.

A straightforward puzzle game. Easy for people who have played a lot of puzzle games, but it still is decently fun and not overly repetitive in its design, though it does feel a bit repetitive at times. I did get a little stuck on a few puzzles because I missed what i was supposed to do.

--------------------- Pros & Cons Features---------------------



Pros
Nice minimalistic graphics
About 75 puzzles (some quite challenging)
Levels overview (unlock adjacent levels)
5 environments with each a new gameplay mechanism
Undo and restart feature
Nice relaxing music

Cons
Graphics of the levels overview a little bit too minimalistic
Pattern easy to learn (tougher for the advanced levels though)

A snake's tale is a unique Puzzle made on iOS, Android and Computer OS which is inspired in some ways by the original concept of the snake game in 1976. The snake behavior and the eggs concept have been kept. You help a Brown Water Snake to reach the hole of each level to his long journey. (Well if you are a snake specialist you can tell me if that's a Brown Water Snake but it seems to be one.) Several gameplay mechanisms are added to the game : snakes with different behavior, eggs and buttons.

- Review below ----------------------------------------------------------------------


Graphics
Graphics are nice despite they are minimalistic : they look like 3D models. And the 5 worlds as well as the 7 snakes will not let you bored. Only the levels overview is the less attractive part of the game.

Sounds, Music
Nice music with fine sounds.

Gameplay
You begin with the map with overview of the unlocked levels : only one at the beginning. As long as you clear a puzzle you unlock the adjacent ones. This is a really nice concept as you can skip or play any unlocked level you want. Also the title of each level can provide a precious hint on how to solve it.
To clear a puzzle you need to move the brown water snake to its destination : the black hole. There are no time or "step" limits and you can use the Undo and Restart features whenever you want.
You can move any snake you want in any order, just be sure to not get a snake stuck unless you need to do it. Anyway you can always use the Undo or Restart feature at any time. Also you will encounter mostly 3 unique snakes which make the game tougher.
Adding to that you will encounter some eggs in several levels : the regular one and the black one. As you may think the regular will increase the size of any snake by one tile. I say any because it's not mandatory that your snake eat it as some puzzles requires you to have another snake that eat the egg. And the black eggs are rotten eggs so it will decrease the length of a snake by one tile but if the snake is already small he will die and disappears from the level.
Finally you will encounter some buttons - switches that all need to be pressed in order to open the hole.
The first levels are obvious to clear : they are small, easy and includes a few gameplay mechanisms : including snakes, eggs or buttons.

The later levels can become a bit tedious as they are medium-sized and sometimes includes several gameplay features.
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1062991567
Finally after you beat all the regular levels you unlock the final level which includes most of the snakes and gameplay features you have previously seen.

An excellent game. Simple controls, nice looking snakes, casual play, new puzzle mechanics are introduced as you progress. Reminds me a little of Stephen's Sausage roll, though not as hard.

Very adorable snake puzzle game. The art is simple yet very polished and cute. The puzzles range from super easy to pretty difficult (judging from what little I've played so far.) Really enjoying this cute indie game, and it's so affordable!!

A simple puzzle game. But it's a lot of fun. Your objective is always to get "your" snake back into the hole in the ground. But there are obstacles and other snakes in the way. The game features different puzzle elements and different snakes that behave differently. Overall I really like the design of the puzzles. Except for a few puzzles at the very beginning I found none of them trivial, some of them were easy and most of them require a bit of thinking. A couple of them were tricky. Overall I managed to get through many puzzles relatively fast, but it was still a nice experience. I am not done with the game yet, because there are still plenty of puzzles left. I am looking forward to the rest :)
