Nimble Quest

Nimble Quest is a creative take on the classic Snake, turning it into a mobile RPG that's accessible and incredibly fun—as long as you're willing to spend a few dollars.

Snake RPG

In this game, the primary objective is to kill monsters, and each chain of the party (read: snake) is a hero who shoots off his or her attack when a foe is nearby.

You collect gems

Collecting gems that drop is a big deal, too. They heal the party leader and function as the primary currency, used to upgrade buffs that enemies drop and the heroes themselves. An effective strategy is to use the Magnet buff while the screen is filled with gems.

Fight lots of monsters

With each cleared stage, a new hero is unlocked, extending the maximum length of the snake. Later on, enemies swarm the screen much more quickly, hindering progress and increasing the need to farm.

In-game purchases: necessity?

The game can be made a lot easier with real life money; not only you can upgrade the richer red gems, but can also buy tokens. Those gold coins are rare to find and can give buffs that last the whole stage or even make you restart a stage without having to start from the beginning.

Remember though, Snake rules still apply

The whole party dies if the front hero runs into a wall or into another creature (but it's fine if another hero does). When you find yourself dying a lot, use a token to try the stage again but only if you think you can beat it. Otherwise, farm up and upgrade buffs and heroes first.
