Controls & Features
Snake Pass features countless secrets in the many levels you slither through. The game's controls are quite simple and at the same time requires the player to really think in a new way. There has to be some understanding of how snakes move and slither their way through the ground to get by quickly and efficiently. The main focus with controls for Snake Pass is to continuously move in an S pattern just as a real snake would maneuver. This form of movement will help with your speed and it helps when climbing or grasping around various objects and platforms to progress through the levels.
Audio/Visuals
On the Xbox One, Snake Pass looks incredibly polished. The visuals are crisp with bold, colorful backgrounds and platforms to get through. The angle of the Snake's perspective can be moved around to really visualize what it's like to slither through the dirt and grass and what it's really like to be a snake. Another great thing about Snake Pass' visuals is the ability to angle out the view the full background and foreground visuals.
Snake Pass delivers a great soundtrack and audio effects to immerse yourself in this fun, colorful platformer by Sumo Digital. From the sounds of slithers, to the rustling of grass, to a splash in the water, to the fall of your snake off a cliff in the event of a massive mistake, Snake Pass delivers the sounds to this fun title.
Conclusion
Snake Pass is a very fun, and affordable platformer that really feels like a new kind of platform game. It's very simplistic yet a new form of thinking as you progress through the levels. Replaying each level is also an option if you're a fan of collectibles and it improves your skills for future levels to complete the game. With a colorful world of slithering fun, Snake Pass is not one to "pass" up.
Snake Pass is available now. You can download it here on Xbox One.
