    Sumo Digital makes its solo debut with an old school platformer that's inventive, charming and a little too frequently infuriating.

    Snake Pass
    Testing your patience
    Ever think what it would be like to be a snake?
    Turns out it’s pretty frustrating.
    Snake Pass is a puzzle platformer snake simulator…
    You play as noodle accompanied by a bird companion
    Your only task is to collect the 3 gems spread across the different levels…
    only problem is it’s a level of posts.. and you gotta get your snake on to climb them…
    This game doesn’t seem to challenging at first…
    It isn’t until the 2nd world out of 4 that your realize this games gonna have you throwing things…
    There are 15 levels total that will all take a variety of different times depending on luck and how quickly you adapt to being a snake…
    I ultimately never did adapt…
    Your main mechanics are move forward... go side to side for speed, lift your head up to climb, and grip.. that’s it…
    The rest Is up to you and physics…
    The game took me a little less than 4 and a half hours to get through…
    Each of the worlds are themed after the different elements…
    earth, which is the intro…
    here you’ll just be climbing posts.. collecting the blue orbs and gold coins around…
    Water, which I felts was the hardest of the elements…
    will introduce the ability to swim under water, this is also where switches are introduced…
    you’ll be over the collectibles by then because of how frustrating climbing the poles that are now moving becomes with hazards such as spikes underneath… and the punishment of going over the same obstacles when you fall…
    Fire which is where you have to deal with lava.. A decently quick chapter…
    And finally air... youre dealing with the wind blowing, ultra frustrating, and this is when your bird friend comes in handy flying you across the different sections…
    An after you complete all of the levels for a section you unlock a time trial mode for the levels…
    I personally have no interest in the time trial mode, but the actual campaign is a great challenge that tested my patience for sure…
    Ultimately I did feel like most deaths were my fault…
    The camera doesn’t follow you automatically though…
    So most is the keyword here..
    The camera is an issue at times when you can’t see where you snake is pointed
    thankfully there’s a decent amount of checkpoints around to make it less painful…
    and you’ll need them.
    I give Snake Pass
    a 7.5/10

    Snake Pass exceeded my expectations. It can be very difficult, but never did it feel unfair. Every I failed to platform it was my fault, theSnake Pass exceeded my expectations. It can be very difficult, but never did it feel unfair. Every I failed to platform it was my fault, the level design is brilliant and the music is fantastic! They really payed close attention to detail. Water droplets smack drums in time and tune to the music. A cheerful slithery platformer. Full Review »

    Game has a nice idea with interesting controls but can also get frustrating at times when the snake just does not do what you want. :) Still iGame has a nice idea with interesting controls but can also get frustrating at times when the snake just does not do what you want. :) Still i gave it 8 points for the great idea, nice visuals and overall good level design.
