SSSnaker Reviews

by Gunner12398

First, this game is really fun. You will start out with challenges you can complete and make progress without spending money. This will last for about an hour or two. Then it bombards you with micro transactions and ads for everything. You get to watch a video you can’t skip every time you open SSSnaker and every time you play a stage for a micro transaction. You will get 7 days of challenges that are meant to help you progress and they will up until day 4 or 5 when there is a challenge that can only be completed by spending money. The only way to make money is to do the gold mine twice a day, you will not make enough to level up from doing the main stage. I have no problem spending some money on a fun game but for a game with gotcha mechanics I won’t spend anything. Within a few weeks of spending money on something strong they will nerf it and come out with something new for you to buy to be able to progress.

Y’all made a fairly fun game but you got way too greedy. The newbie quest is impossible to complete unless you pay 99$ for gems. It’s a newbie event, I shouldn’t have to pay that much just to enjoy the game. Otherwise it’s pretty fun but making everything so costly is what’s driven me away from the game. Y’all could tone down the prices 10x and it might be playable then. You should be ashamed of charging that much just to complete the NEWBIE event. More than that, I keep trying to post this review and it doesn’t show up, that’s beyond scummy to just delete any review you don’t like. This will be my 6th time trying to leave a review, it’s pretty scummy to not show critical reviews.

The reason for the one star is this; no one is capable of continuing and/or enjoying the game unless you spend some real money into it. I’m almost two hundred dollars deep and can’t even pass lvl. 29.
The way the upgrades work when you’re in the mission is just cruel; you have to choose one out of only three options that are presented to you, granted you can spend 10 gems to “re-spin” but obtaining gems it’s just as frustrating. Ive been playing for two months and there’s nothing new. No events, no side quest, nothing really interesting. The only way to beat the game is playing it 24/7 (even that is generous) or spending literally hundreds of dollars in it & it’s rated for players 9 years of age or older. Be real!

The new update either suffers from unbelievably poor foresight or an even more predatory determination to get players to empty out their wallets.

The Endless Tower gives you a 900 gem snake pack if you get all three objectives in a stage, which is cool. But then you start to realize after a handful of stages that they load up these objective lists with stuff that is literally impossible to do, or very close. These include:

Complete in less than 5 stages. Good luck…

Kill 5 mud frogs with circle attacks. First, what is a mud frog, second I can’t circle kill anything because I’m not using an unleveled origin snake. Everything gets killed well before I can circle it.

Circle kill 20 creatures. Not possible.

Kill 120 enemies with electric/plant combo attacks. By the time you get a combo in this mode you’re at the end, you will not get that combo and have 120 enemies to kill, ever…

It’s beyond scummy that they put this out and expect us to lap it up as if this update made this mediocre game less pay to win. It is still pay to win, pay way way way way too much to win, which is sad because there is some good work by hard working people here that is ruined by greedy suits in the executive suite.

*sigh* Update… another new mini game. In fairness they did acknowledge and lower the difficulty on the most recent game mode…

They keep adding modes, snakes, and features (like it’s an unfinished game), each added thing comes with some kind of pay to win/play component, and now the game crashes just about every time I play. I’m 377 days and over $100 in. Gameplay is great, game could easily be 5* but the predatory pay to win bonuses and unfinished features are frustrating. New players beware! If you want the most powerful snakes, you will have to spend $$$ just to unlock them. If you’re attempting to play free, don’t level up too fast. Your best chances to win arena are early on and at lower levels. You have to make a top 10 to get the SS light snake. Plenty of new features and power up tracks are added, while challenge mode has been ‘coming soon’ at level 20 for months. An elemental tower mode was introduced months ago and has yet to become available. We have pets now!… And there’s a recycle your pets tab… ‘coming soon’

After playing 6 hours, there is nothing to increase power, there is only one way, use $. Items are not dropped to craft higher grades. Deleted

I’m really frustrated with the game right now. So the first time challenge that you get when you first start the game is awesome, as your progressing forward there’s a few challenges that are very hard but there’s enough challenges that the total awarded points total is about 1550 max while the max prize is granted at 1500 so gives you some wiggle room to get all the prices.

Then comes Timed Challenge number 1, which for 1 asks for insane things like not only 2 but 4 legendary items, receiving 2 S Tier Epic items during the 7 days, and using 15k Gems within the 7 days… now this would be fine as it’s to encourage people to pay for items in the game. Where I run into problems is the max prize is still 1500 points yet the total amount of points achievable in this challenge is only 1450… so it’s impossible! Even if you got every single challenge 100% you would not be able to get the prize, you would be 50 points short. Now this is the scammiest thing I’ve ever seen, or and I hope it’s just a huge bug in the coding of the challenge. But it’s really annoying and honestly makes me not want to play the game anymore, as it’s impossible to get satisfaction for completing the challenges.

by ThiccNug

I started playing this game like a month ago now and it started off pretty funny and addictive. Then I got a new phone and hard to start over which was pretty good since I learned the first time in what to do. But the first and second challenges are pretty hard. Like the game gave me a week to get like 15k gems I believe it was and I had to get enough points to unlock some better gear okay whatever I didn’t get it it is what it is. But then I keep playing for a while and now I’m at the point of the game where I can’t do anything. I do a trail and can’t get passed wave 4-5 with 3 pieces of S gear (no legendaries. Never gotten one yet) can’t do the main missions because the enemies do 1,800 a hit while I have 14k health on 3 snakes. The game starts off pretty fun in my option. Yes it starts off super easy and then stage 2 is pretty hard. But it was a learning curve. Now the game just feels impossible. Trial 10 is just a lot of enemies that shot a wall of electricity and there’s like 5-10 of them with others and a boss. How am I supposed to beat that? By getting better gear? Okay how, how do I get better gear if I’m stuck in a loop of just losing for 3 days straight. Upgrading my snake? How, can’t get gems if I can’t pass what I’m stuck on. Like it just gets to a point of impossible. Not a horrible game, it is fun I will say that. It just gets to a point of just feeling like it’s impossible.

by AliceMayce27

The game is wonderful at first. Don’t get to excited though because the developers have RIGGED this game making it so difficult and frustrating that its no longer fun once you get to higher levels, even for the most seasoned player. They had a chance to make something great but instead chose greed. The better you play, the more obvious its RIGGED becomes. On level 30, The developers made it so that 15-20 dart-shooting frogs attack at the SAME time rendering it impossible to proceed without taking severe damage or losing a snake all together. Ntm, the enemies have a healer on some levels but your healing only drops ever so often and it’s minuscule compared to the enemies who receive FULL health. The enemies who throw rocks can hit you even when invisible but you can’t hit them. RIGGED. Wouldn’t surprise me if this ended up at #250 on SSSnaker Store. If your gonna rig a game, don’t make it so obvious. The slot machine apps are LESS RIGGED than this app. Needs fixing

by Dragonleap99

This game is borderline unplayable. I downloaded this app about a week ago. I’m in the middle of level 4. Hardware-wise, I’m using an iPhone 11 Pro on iOS version 16.3.1. So not a slouch in terms of hardware. And yet, I find myself unable to progress because changing menus can cause a freeze, and watching an ad can cause a freeze, PLAYING THE GAME CAN CAUSE A FREEZE. And I know it’s going to come up, my phone isn’t overheating and I’m able to close and relaunch SSSnaker to get back to where I was.

In the past hour, I’ve had to force-restart 6 times.

Now, the positive? The game is great. It’s an excellent spin on an old favorite. I wish we could get more special turrets because, past a certain point, there’s no strategy - you’re just hoping you have enough turrets to melt the boss. Which is another point. In my experience so far, if you can make it to the boss, they’re a pushover because of how much powering up you’ve had to do. I’d like to see slightly easier levels up to the boss who is a little tougher.

Short version: more skills to pick from in levels, easier enemies in normal levels, slighlut harder big bosses.

by HonestInsight

This was for a long time one of my favorite games. I’ve played it for a little over a year now. Spent more money on it than I care to admit. It was desperately in need of more material because people were starting to get bored and fall off. Well we got what we wanted and was given more material recently, but now it seems like all the developer cares about is money. Normally that would be understandable but it’s got so overbearing. Once you complete the very few main campaign levels, you’re basically forced to keep spending money to be apart of the game. A new snake releases every 2 weeks that your forced to spend money on and even more to level it up, because if you don’t. Guess what all the events, the arena, the bloodline quests, basically everything revolves around that new snake released for that period. So if you don’t spend a lot of money to obtain the snake and level it up, then you miss out on everything else because you have such a huge disadvantage. So it’s like, to do this you have to have this, and that requires this, but every bit of it costs money. Literally took every bit of the fun out of the game. Literally nothing that’s worth anything in this game is free. Its mind blowing. I loved this game :(

by GamecenterM

Games like this are so disappointing because it’s a fun idea. Various snakes, skills, elements, etc. Gameplay is fun and challenging. There are different game modes to play with. Fun snake and attack designs. It’s cool. Until you realize, much like the other reviews have mentioned, that your progress will come to a halt unless you open your wallet. Limited time events have a heavy p2w aspect. Anything with a leaderboard, pay to stand a chance. Or it’s just bots leading the pack. And it’s aggressive. Even in the “tutorial” levels when you start the game they shove an iap in your face. The home screen will eventually have 10+ shops of something to buy. A snake. New player limited time offers. Whatever. And sure there are freebies here and there but even some of those are locked behind buying something from the previous tier. It’s egregious how excessive the iap are and how much they push it. 2 stars for the actual gameplay. Atrocious monetization.

by Titty Malaysia

The game was really fun at first with cute graphics and mechanics and I enjoyed the gameplay with the snakes. But not too far in there’s a difficulty spike, and from there on the game’s difficulty level becomes punishing on every single stage.

I don’t spend money on the game and the only way to progress for free is to very slowly increase your attack, and hard stages went from taking days to complete, to taking weeks to complete. I can confidently say I’ve been on stage 22 for about three weeks now because the boss on stage 20 has no clear way of beating it. It just doesn’t.

And at this point the game feels impossible to play.

I really like the actually gameplay, but if im not able to progress to be able to play the game, it becomes moot and it feels like I increase my power only for it do nothing for me.

The difficulty level needs to be balanced, or there need to be significantly better ways to upgrade that help advance the game.

by EMac001

The game is fun for the first 2 weeks, then your progression grinds to a halt. Then you spend a week or more sometimes waiting to grind out daily gold and amplifier materials to increase your damage and health. Then one of the ONLY ways to get those amplifier materials is 3 daily reattempts at trials missions, which have a chance to literally waste your time for 5+ minutes and give you literally NOTHING. Otherwise you have like a small chance of spinning a wheel and getting the amplifier materials you want vs other gear progression stuff that’s less important. Just getting annoyed as a F2P player now.

by M3rl1nboy

This is an original take on a much repeated type of game, very fun gameplay, graphics are good and the mechanisms of the game are fun. Only problem, the difficult curve is insane. The difference between stage 1 and 2 is nuts, stage one the enemies hit for about 30 damage. Watching an ad or two, playing for two days, I made my HP around 500, not a problem for stage one. Stage two enemies hit for 100+ damage. It’s very difficult to get gear, you need amplifiers to get big upgrades, and they come from level chests. I’ve opened over 10 chests and haven’t found one yet. It’s obvious the game pushes you towards using cash to increase your power, pushes you very hard actually. If I continued playing for free it may take me another week or two just to stand a chance on stage 2. It’s not that the game is too difficult, but they make it intentionally harder so you watch ads or purchase their in-game currencies. Fun game other than that.

by "DeFroggy"

Honestly, overall the game is truly amazing and it’s one of the few games I consistently open. There are so many events and challenges that you guys constantly add within the updates. However, I am getting slightly sick of the spin chances in the Arena. I just used 14 tokens, and I got 2 matches, with those 2 matches being 10 or 30 gems. At the least there should be a pity, where you get anything more than that. ALSO, are all the chances equal? The chances of me getting something I actually need is extremely low. I was just playing arena again, I rerolled like 10 times, and on like the 8th reroll I finally got the turret I needed. On top of that I opened 8 boxes and only got 2 upgrades for my turret, this needs to be stopped.

by Cnb777

The initial gameplay loop is fun and addicting however soon it will become an impossible challenge. Initially you will slither around as your turrets on your snakes attack the enemies around you, when you get attacked you lose a significant amount of health however at certain levels on your character you are simply not able to clear some of the new areas possibly till days later. The amount of damage racking up is really good in the beginning portion, but very quickly some areas in the game will take a entire day of just getting loot from ad chests and quick earning gifts. As of getting to level seven it might take you 3-4 days even without getting hit throughout the entire area once the boss comes around you simply significantly less damage than anything around you. The boss is a sponge and he spawns enemies around you which again at first it’s not to difficult but once he goes enraged he spawns way more enemies than usual by 4 times and also seems to have better resistance? The enemies he spawns have higher resistance aswell which make it impossible to kill even with the stacking upgrades correctly. There is another activity you can do but the special event where you can get S+ gear can’t fully be completed unless you put in maybe 100 dollars for gems and buy the S+ chest. Game good, execution bad.

by Ircapture

First off I love this game. It’s really fun to play, challenging, and the game releases new content pretty often. It’s really a nice game to play.

However I have noticed the more I play the content releases are actually getting a bit too much. They release a new snake every 20 days or so and it’s becoming a lot to keep up with.

In the game “crystals” are utilized for both acquiring snakes, and upgrading your armor. Problem is with the snake release schedule I can’t ever devote crystals to upgrading my armor…. That is without buying more crystals. The game makes it increasingly difficult to be a free to play player. And I’m not even free to play… I pay for the monthly subscription.

I love the game but with every new release, it seems more and more geared towards you spending money. In this latest release they introduced a helpful elf that buffs your snake during a specified event. However they also made this area much more difficult so it almost feels required for you to purchase the elf instead of obtaining resources within game for it.

Overall love the game… just feels more and more about money with each new released content.

by Dudenstuf

The game is great up until chapter 24 level 20. It’s dang near impossible. The boss chases you around the map forcing you to move but there are countless lasers going off the entire time so it forces you to drain the health of all three of your snakes if you can even beat it. Ridiculously difficult to do even with S class everything + master class lightning snakes. You pretty much have to stop playing the game and just wait for daily things so you can get new armor and snake cards. Or forced to spend money to progress. I get it. It’s how you make money. But I’m not gonna spend more money on a game I can’t play.

by Thanetis

I have been obsessed with this game all week, and it’s been a blast. I want to give it 5 stars, but I do have some problems with it. Issue number one is that the damage spikes too high. as I’m grinding and leveling up it barely makes up for when I get. Maybe reduce that a little. Next I do wish that at each mini boss there was an angels choice or a devil’s bargain. So they would offer something more like damage increases, speed, or health buffs. The angel would give you something good, but the devil you have to sacrifice some health for its reward. Finally, I was grinding all week trying to do the 7 day challenge, and no matter how hard I tried I could not complete the final two days. I feel like I missed out even though I tried so hard and that the only way I could have completed it was if I had paid to get things. Not that I’m complaining that there are pay options, but just that I really wanted the end prize and was so close. Anyway, I love the game and still will play.

by Hduejsbdhdjdj

In an oversaturated market of lazy cash grabs and misleading ads, this game delivers on it’s provided premise and executes it almost perfectly. The controls and graphics are fluent enough for a mobile game, the ideas are mostly fleshed out and ultimately is just a fun experience that keeps you on your toes without being too difficult. I think the premise of referencing the mechanics of a classic game “snake” in its combat system is a nice twist to the genre as it lets you be creative with how you play the game but that’s also where the issues start. The attack that uses the snakelike ability works only half the time and isn’t very clear on how it works (do you have to activate it on an enemy or can it hit them if they run into it?). The stat boosts it gives for the genre and the elemental abilities aren’t always described properly, a few nitpicky things on the graphics like the shadows not making sense with the lighting and the snake is a bit of a different style of the rest of the things as well as the unclear color scheme can be pretty hectic for this kind of game. None of these truly detract from the experience too much though, this is a game that knows what it is and does it well, just needs to work out a few kinks and for longevity, expand on it’s mechanics. (I’ve completed the first world for frame of reference)

by Melonadog

Great game, but one thing that’s missing a good competitive feature. The ranking for their event mode is easily glanced over, and rankings persist over the entirety of the game; meaning there is almost no incentive to even try for top rank unless you want to grind pointless hours doing so.

Other than that, the pay-to-win curve is ginormous. At a certain point, levels are just impossible to progress as the map is covered with mobs and projectiles leaving you no where to go, and rendering any skill that’s used to play the game, useless. There is also no good reward for clearing levels so I find myself getting bored of playing very quickly.

very hard move

by Fnaf_lover63

Hello developers! I don’t know if you read these but if you do I have a idea on how to make more money but make it fun at the same time.

…

You know how we die and we respawn and have to do it all over again? Well what if you added a respawn at the spot you died at with a ad? You only have two lives then you REALLY have to start over? That two life’s being ads? I think ads give you guys money so adding ads in that way will make players feel more successful and make you more money? Win-win if you ask me.

by Nater17171717

What a game! I thought this was gonna be just like archero when I saw the ads so I was excited enough. Then, when I got the game, I was astonished! It’s like archero but with a twist almost. It’s finally a game that lives up to its ads and even exceeds what the game seems like in the ads. The graphics are stunning and this is overall a well made game with a deserved 5 star. I love the different game modes as well. They are very cool and fun to play! The best thing about this game though is that you can progress without p2w. I hope this game only gets better after beta. Thanks!

by Mini Legos

I stopped playing for a bit but know I’m back in more then ever, I’m note that good, but I’m having an absolute BALL of fun, really love the game, but one thing, I think it should be easier to get hammers, and I don’t mean easy to where people can grind for it, but to where maybe you earn something like hammer fragments or hammer tokens, whatever you think, but the main point, don’t make hammers easier to get, but maybe start up a trade system with some representation of pieces of the hammers, now of course you don’t have to do this, I just though it be a good idea, other than that, this games is 10/10 for me

by Demarcus05!

the name is magshock dominator and I really like it! Also the new skills are cool pls make more updates like this! You could make more fusion skills like frenetic refract+ricochet shot, I call this holy arrow! Also make triple skills: lighting core+frenetic refract+ballistic penetration=thunderous shotgun: shoot thunder skills, thunder of apocalypse+frenetic refract+ballistic penetration=shooting core: holy thunder core shoots fire bullet instead of holy crystal, rapid extension+skydive combo+tarsus flame=sky lightning: when enemies touch it, the enemy burn!

by JWC74

Honestly it’s really fun. It follows the trending archero style, but actually provides a unique and fun experience! I just reached chapter 8 and progression feels great. The only thing I might change is making the different snakes (spirits?) feel a bit more rewarding for building into their respective element during a run. Though I’ve noticed there may be an unmentioned damage boost to elementally matching body segments. However, the 5 (+1) segments cap feels low for building into an element. Maybe allow for an extra 3 segments of the element your snake is? Or double it and have elemental matching upgrades give 2 instead of 1. Just some thoughts.
Overall though it’s been my favorite game lately!

by Brother Ark

I’ve never felt strongly enough about a game to write a review before, but this has been the exception. While there are a few issues I have with the game, they are so minor compared to how inventive and fun the game is.

After playing my first 15 minutes of the game, I thought to myself: “This is fine, but I feel like I could get bored of this pretty easily.”

After 30 minutes: “Oh, there is much more depth to this than I imagined.”

After 2 days: “Wow, there are so many hidden things that keep making the game more exciting!”

The best part about this game is that you can tell that the developers really care about it and are excited to grow it, and I can’t wait to see where it goes from here!

My only issues are:

- The default controls are pretty uncomfortable to play with, and changing the controls is not available from the start.

- A few too many calls to spend money, and it can be kinda annoying to see so many little things behind optional ad views, but seeing as there are no mandatory ads anywhere, I think that is a fair trade.

- While I really like that the game’s more advanced features are introduced piecemeal, that also means that it takes a few days of playing to actually see the full scope of the game. Some new players might be hooked sooner if the more advanced features are introduced just a little sooner.

by Bear-toe

I already have a lot on my plate with work and school and i have a main game i play so this is one is like my break from everything. I don’t Olán to spend any money and just grind but for the most part I’m pretty satisfied with my rate of improvement, maybe it’s the gamer in me. I will say if you care about being competitive then do your best to strengthen with what you have as I have done or be ready to spend some cash. Not sure how reasonable those prices are in the long run

by Thecakeone1

I just got rid of my second fav game TO UPDATE THIS….. but it didn’t even update :( I don’t recommend this game EVER. Update; So the game updated a day after, I didn’t stop the first day because I loved this game. I love the new event currently and I don’t have many snakes but they had a lot of thought put into them! Great game Habby, can’t wait for more updates! Also some info about the first part: I kept pressing the update button, but a few moments after I pressed it, it just stopped the update, but I had plenty of storage and it didn’t give any error message or anything.

by Tommy Rinker

Collosatron was one of my favorite games about a giant robot alien dragon snake that crashes on earth and fights the military and a certain general, you get different colored parts and can fuse them together to make them stronger, if they take too much damage they will explode and can be used as weapons as well, in this game unfortunately you cannot throw dying turrets at the enemies but it really has the collosatron spirit so this game is definitely a new favorite of mine

by Mangled24

Hello this app developers in a future update could you add a feature where you can look at all the monsters you have encountered and see what weakness they have what kind of attack they have and what chapter they are found on. The different attacks would be in multiple categories being follow, chase, support, item, boss, projectile, and area. Thank you for reading my review and update idea for this app and keep on making the game better and better.

by Loot_life

I love the game, even spent some money, but the joystick won’t work. Normally if you try to move with the joystick you can click and hold it then move your finger anywhere on the screen, but now for some reason I have to keep my finger on the joystick or the Joystick just won’t work, this is becoming a bit annoying, so if there is anyway to fix that I would like to know.

by Blurryki77er

Archero, snkrx and brotato had a baby and this is came out. Pretty cool little roguelike game. Not sure if its pay to win/advance yet.

by Kosmikshred

This game was already incredible but the new reward systems make it perfect for casual yet committed players! I’ve never spent a penny on this game and I still have the S snakes and armor I need to keep moving forward! I’m so grateful the devs keep us in mind. Habby has done a lot for us, and teamed with Lark it’s immediately even smoother and more accessible! Seriously, SERIOUSLY well done lads & lassies! It’s so cool to feel heard by the people who bring us so much joy!!! Could not recommend this game more to anyone of any age or stage of life!
