Remember Snake, the classic title that made gaming on mobile phones cool? Well, It's back! But now it has evolved into Snakes: a fast-paced, colorful multi-player sensation in 3D, optimized for the Nokia N-Gage. The coolest thing is that they're giving it away for FREE! Anyone can downloaded on their official site and then spread it on via Bluetooth. [Nokia]

IC-Games

The beauty here though is that as mentioned, anyone who has Snakes on their N-Gage can simply send the full game to a friend using the Bluetooth functions. Once the game has been spread multiplayer madness can begin, and thankfully Snakes is even better when playing against other people.

Console Gameworld

Truly an innovative game for the N-Gage. Since the game provides such a great experience, and simply by virtue of the fact that it is free, it is a must-own for all N-Gagers.

IGN

If you own an N-Gage and haven't downloaded Snakes yet, hustle over to Nokia's website and nab it. Then clear out the next hour of your day, because you'll find this game wraps itself around you like few other N-Gage titles.

GameSpot

This simple 3D maze-running game from Nokia and Iomo epitomizes everything that's great and unique about the N-Gage.

GameSpy

There are many reasons for you to get this game, and quite literally no reasons not to.

Pocket Games

We're shocked that one of the most fun N-Gage games yet is a free download. [Spring 2005, p.81]

AceGamez

Vibrating visuals, fitting audio, instantly playable and feature packed. In fact, if it only had half the levels and no arena/multiplayer features, it would still be a great title worth paying for.

Easy to play. Near a perfect 3d. A classic game that will never die!

This is my favorite N-Gage game yet. Silky smooth gameplay, trippy visuals. Clever twists on a gaming classic.
