Retro classics are called classics for a reason, and it\u2019s undeniable that Snake falls into that category. With origins going all the way back to 1976\u2019s two-player arcade game Blockade, Snake has become its very own genre over the years since. However, you\u2019re likely most familiar with the dot-matrix Snake game that was on every brick phone back in the late 90\u2019s and early 2000\u2019s. <\/p>\n

While gaming has come a long way since the early days of tiny green screens and black pixels, we all feel a little nostalgic sometimes, which is why we\u2019ve gathered this list of titles that allow you to play Snake<\/strong> on mobile and Switch. From pixel-by-pixel emulations of the Snake you remember to whacky, colourful Snake-inspired adventures, you\u2019re bound to find something to scratch that Snake itch. <\/p>\n

If you find yourself hitting one too many walls and need to take a break, check out our guide on how to play Solitaire<\/a> and how to play chess<\/a> on Switch and mobile. We\u2019ve also got a list of the best retro games<\/a> on Switch and mobile for even more walks down memory lane. <\/p>\n

Snake \u201897: Retro Phone Classic<\/h3>\n

Google Play<\/a> \/ App Store<\/a> <\/p>\n

If you\u2019re really missing the good old Nokia brick days, back when a phone could fall down three flights of stairs and break the floor at the bottom instead of cracking its screen, then Snake \u201897 is the mobile game for you. <\/p>\n

Not only does it emulate the good old green-screen classic version of the game, complete with partially peeled-off screen protector and flecks in the display, it even fills half of your screen with an emulation of the phone itself. Enjoy a real dose of nostalgia with classic maps, dot-matrix display, and monotone sounds. <\/p>\n

Snake Game<\/h3>\n

Google Play<\/a> \/ App Store<\/a> <\/p>\n

Another nostalgic adventure, Snake Game takes you through multiple generations of the classic title itself, from the dot-matrix display era through to the smooth, multicoloured serpent. <\/p>\n

Using the simple, touchscreen directional pad at the bottom, navigate your way through Classic Snake, Retro Snake, Snack on Steroids, and Snake Master, snagging boosts along the way. There\u2019s even a snake rewind option, if you need a little extra help getting back into the slither of things. <\/p>\n

Blocky Snake<\/h3>\n

Google Play<\/a> \/ App Store<\/a> <\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for something a bit different to scratch that classic Snake itch, Blocky Snake might just be the game for you. This title follows the tried and tested formula \u2013 you\u2019re a snake, you collect food, but for some reason bumping into walls or your own tail leads to fatal consequences. <\/p>\n

However, this time it\u2019s isometric, with 3D, blocky snakes slithering around a cube-based world. You can even unlock skins and unique items, and challenge your friends in multiplayer modes. <\/p>\n
