Snood
SCORE: 90
I am very thankful I had the money to purchase a copy of Snood on the
Gameboy Advance. This fun little puzzle game can be played in Puzzle or
Journey mode. Snood also lets players create their own custom setup of
the game. One or two players can enjoy Snood on the Gameboy Advance.
There are fifty levels within Snood that can be played on different
difficulties. The harder the difficulty the large the game play screen
becomes. On the easier difficulties the little icons are huge. They get
smaller as the screen increases the amount of tiles.
Snood is a lot like Bust A Move. We have a launcher and must match three
of the same color. Players must do this before the icons come down to
the bottom of the screen. The launcher in Snood does not contain a
guideline that I saw. I am not sure when that concept entered into games
like Snood. I prefer having a guide show me so I can figure out how the
object will bounce off the walls for example. We must eye ball it in
Snood. This is one area this franchise could really improve upon.
I was shocked and impressed that there are some neat little animated
movies within Snood. The music in Snood is fantastic. I also liked being
able to change the background in Snood by pressing the ‘B’ button. The
big graphics on lower difficulty settings impressed me was well. Snood
is one of those really fun games where I would match three and watch
those icons and whatever was connected to them fall down. Levels can be
completed. We get into danger on the right hand side of the screen when
the liquid fills to the top. Then the game drops the top one level down.
Snood provides the right colors. Say for example there are only yellow
tiles left. Snood provides yellow tiles. I have played other similar
puzzle games that provide everything but what you need to complete the
level. Snood is nice to families in that regard. I was able to find
Snood really cheap at an online retro gaming website. It is neat to find
gems like Snood from the past. I played the sequel on the Nintendo DS.
It is neat to see the origins of the franchise on the hand-helds. I
would love to see Snood come back to the video game industry soon.
