    Snakebird is not a good game.

    The idea of connecting the Nokia snake with gravity seems very interesting. Unfortunately, the design of this game doesn't explore the idea in a fulfilling way. Most puzzles in this game are more like arbitrary challenges than like exploration of ideas. The game is full of red herrings which makes the game much more difficult in a non-meaningful way.    Snakebird is not a good game.

    The graphics should emphasize the grid but they don't so they worked around this problem by letting you enable the grid overlay in the settings which is a joke. The graphical size of level exit is almost 3x3 but the gameplay size is only 1x1. In certain places, it's very hard to distinguish foreground from background.
    The stuff that you can click on to get an achievement is very meaningless content.

    You can move the snake using awsd, down/left/right arrows also work, but up arrow does not.
    You can't fullscreen the game on a secondary monitor on Windows.    … Expand

    Snakebird is not for everyone. But for those puzzle-lovers out there seeking the ultimate challenge, definitely give Snakebird a shot. You might be surprised by how often this game will leave you stumped, but that just makes the feeling of overcoming challenges so much sweeter!
