Report an issuePlay Snake like it is 1997. This is a remake of the original Snake, complete with dot-matrix display and monotone sounds.
It is as addictive (and frustrating) as the original, play Snake '97 and be prepared to lose some productive hours.
#1 IPHONE APP in: Austria, Belgium, Germany, Greece, Denmark, Finland, Israel, Italy, Norway, Poland, Spain, United Kingdom and Switzerland. Featured in many other rankings in the rest of the world.
Simply launch the app, touch a button and start!
Snake '97 features: - old school controls (or choose for big easy controls) - original sounds - 9 original and 3 extra difficulty levels - 4 classic game modes (5110, 3210, 8210, 8850) - 1 XL game mode (play snake full screen on your device) - full support for iPad - a high score that cannot be reset (just like the original) - (optional)international leaderboard using Game Center
The story behind this game is that my iPhone got damaged, requiring me to revert back to an old phone. Suddenly I knew the iPhone 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.
If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, feel free to contact me. Have Snake fun!
Best regards from Amsterdam, The developer, Willem.

8 of 25This is the original mobile phone game!! And the most simple and addicting!! The only reason I gave 4 stars is because you guys should make the pause button too! That's the only way to get 2008 pints as you fill up the whole screen with the snake!..
Amazing game, simple, cool layout, and addicting. Brings back memories. This is better then all the modern knock offs trust me.
Both this app and Snake 2K are wonderfully simple games that I love. Keep up the good work
It will be 5⭐ if I can also share my score on facebook so my friends can see it... I don't have tweeter account so i need to share it on facebook... Please!! But kudos to this game... Suppa like it....
Just like the old days and its fun to play. It's worth buying the real Verison.
I am transported back to my childhood with this app
