Snake Pass

Snake Pass

Game • 2017

Welcome to Snake Pass; a physical action-puzzle game that sees the player slither, curl and climb their way through increasingly challenging worlds filled with evermore intricate obstacles and fiendishly mind-bending objectives! Snake Pass is the wriggling brain-child of Seb Liese, who originally came to Sumo from Holland to work on the LittleBigPlanet team. His prototype of ‘real snake physics’ captured the entire studio’s imagination and we’re really proud of the results so far!

Ages 6+, but every child is different

The game focuses on complex physical motor skills and puzzle-solving that require patience and fine motor control. The slow-paced nature and lack of violent themes make it accessible for younger players capable of handling frustration.
