One of the finest day in ones life is seeing what he/she loves in another stage or dimension, to all those Tech and Snake Lovers, it is lovely to have this news directed to you.
Finally, the Iconic Nokia’s Snake Game is Back and Available on Facebook Messenger, well, looking at it, it was kind of promoted after the introduction of the Nokia 3310 during the Mobile World Congress, in Barcelona.
HMD Global, the home of Nokia phones, announced a new version of the snake game for Messenger, however, it is now part of Facebook’s Instant Games cross platform experience.
The Facebook Messenger will never get boring with the introduction of Instant Games and now, we now have the Snake Game, mehn, it is Game time! The world famous game will be snaking its way back into people’s hearts and is designed to be played with groups of friends, making it even more playable than the first time around.
If you can recall, Snake was first featured on Nokia handsets in 1992 and since then has appeared on over 400 million phones. So starting from now, you will no longer have to dig out your old handsets to get the game, instead HMD Global invites the world to unite through the free game and challenge friends to play, using Facebook’s Instant Games platform.
Pekka Rantala, Chief Marketing Officer of HMD Global said:
‘The Snake game was the most popular game in the history of Nokia phones, in fact the true origin of mobile gaming can be traced back to a Nokia handset released in 1997. To this day it has remained hugely popular, not only because it carries a strong sense of nostalgia but because this was the first ever mobile gaming experience for many consumers. The opportunity to partner with Facebook, the social media platform that has single handedly defined the social media landscape, is an incredible opportunity. We were truly excited to work with them to bring back Snake in a modern format to a global audience. We hope in its new format it unites people across the world and brings as much joy to players as it did the first time around.’
Laurens Rutten, Founder and CEO of CoolGames, the developers of Snake on Instant Games, said:
‘It was a big honour that our Studio could contribute to a new release of such an iconic IP that has shaped the mobile games industry.’
However, a revamped version of Snake will also be pre-installed on the new Nokia 3310, a head turning modern twist on one of the best-selling phones of all time, making the Snake comeback even more exciting.
