Are you among those who always cherish the teenage days and games you used to play? Time when there where no Smartphones and the games played during those days were also different. I remember we used to keep discussing with our friends, saying "hey I crossed 10k score this weekend".
Are you guessing the game name? Ya I am speaking about the SNAKE game which used to be the all time fav for almost everyone from Youngsters to Old age.
SNAKE IS COMING BACK.
Now the game is returning for modern smartphones courtesy of that mobile version’s creator Taneli Armanto and developer +RumilusDesign, who will release Snake Rewind on 14 May.Snake wasn’t invented by Nokia – its ever-stretching gameplay had appeared on home computers since the late 1970s under various names – but Finnish developer Armanto was the person responsible for preloading it on +Nokia’s 6110 handset in 1997.
Snake Rewind will be released for iOS, Android and Windows Phone devices, with new features including the ability – purists, look away now – to “rewind the Snake to continue the game even after crashing” as well as new power-ups and levels.
The game will be spread over 10 levels, each featuring a unique design, including a classic Nokia feature phone screen. Though details on how the game will be purchased haven't been released, the developers hint that the game will be free to play, but offer in-app purchases for upgrades.
Will modern smartphone owners be as keen on Snake as people were in the late 1990s? There are dozens of unofficial versions of the game already available on Apple and Google’s app stores, too, providing competition for the official remake.
