The story behind this game is that my smartphone got damaged, requiring me to revert back to an old phone. Suddenly I knew the smartphone was missing something and the idea for a accurate Snake remake was born.

Snake '97 is an homage to the classic mobile phone game programmed in 1997.

By carefully analyzing the classic gameplay, timing and controls, this Snake '97 remake is one of the most accurate available.

Have Snake fun!

Ratings and reviews

Reminds me of my childhood when I was given an old Nokia phone to play Snake on my bus ride home from elementary school. Hours and hours of fun, and will likely spend hours and hours again having fun.

COOL!!! Very good rendition of Snake 1997 version, seems to be just like the one I played on my Nokia 1510 years ago, 2,002'ish. I like how there's a choice of "phone overlays" or "covers,"I noticed that the first 4 you get Snake-version 1 where crashing into the outer rectangular wall IS possible. Where with the "phone overlays" of 5, 6 and 7 you get Snake-version 2 where you can THEN go through the outer rectangular wall; that's very helpful to know.😉 So happy to give this a thumbs up.👍🤠👍

I forgot what it is to have a phone with buttons in your hands. 10/10 food game.
