The perfect game to waste time

Ok, if I hadn't played this game for the computer as much as I have, I'd never even consider buying this as it looks stupid. I watched people playing this game on the computers at work for months and months before I got bored enough to try, and the truth is it's extraordinarily addictive. I found myself downloading it on my home computer soon after learning to play. It's one of those games that end up knowingly wasting hours upon hours of your life on. I know when this comes out, I'll spend most of my day at work huddled in the corner Snooding instead of waiting in line for a computer....It's a Tetris - puzzle like game, match 3 or more pieces of the same type to destroy them. The object is to use as few snoods as possible. 5 difficulty settings as well as puzzle types. Curious as to whether they developed a multi-player function for the GBA version...

Snood Rules!

I originally got the game for me but I'm happy to report the kids love it too. This is a great port with some new twists from the PC version that I've played for years. There is the classic game version (with some new new features, such as the wild card and parachuting Snoods!) and also a fast-paced game and a two-player game that is really hard for me to win. When the kids went to sleep, I sat down and enjoyed the puzzle levels which are my favorite.

Snood Rules!

This is the game that Nintendo made Game Boy Advance for! It's so much fun to take the game with me. I no longer have to sit at the PC to play it. It is actually more enhanced then the PC version. Get this one! It's a lot of fun.

WOW, Is all I can say!

When I first purchased Snood, I wasn't sure of what to expect. But, I do have to say WOW! This is a great game! I hope they plan on coming out with Snood-2. I'm buying this game for my family members so we can have some contest's.

addictive

If it were an option, this game would get no stars. I love snood on the PC. In fact, I spend way too much of my life and college class time playing it. Therefore, I was completely exicted to find out that it was coming out in a hand held version. However, I was so disappointed in this format, I had to return the game. Don't let the other reviewers fool you - this is not the Snood that you love. There is no Hall of Fame. No Snood used counter. In short, the real motivation to play is simply not there. Unless you want to write down your scores as you go, there is no record to beat. BORING. Too add insult to injury, the harder levels of the game proved to be harder only in that telling some of the snoods apart was next to impossible. Please take heed, and only buy this game at a store that will give you credit if you are as disappointed as I am/was. Sorry Snood fans.

The Truth of Snood REVEALED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When Snood was first created, the creator was credited for an original and amazingly designed game.
Now I'll be the first to say Snood is a very fun game, but let me tell you about an old arcade game called "Bust-A-Move". You were a cute little dinosaur who controlled a little compass-shooter thing that shoots marbles of different colors. The gameplay is the same as snood, only they have different things to shoot (happy faces vs. marbles!!!).
The bottom line is SNOOD is a rip-off of BUST-A-MOVE!
Would you like proof? Visit any decent classic gaming arcade, or rent Bust-A-Move 2 Arcade Edition for N64 (or BAM for GBC). Thank you for attention, and spread the news!

Snood in name only

It's so upsetting to see such a good game get such a raw deal. I am one of the minions of Snood-a-holics, and I was thrilled to hear this version was making an appearance on the GBA. But it is just not the same as the PC version in any way. There is no high score, and whenever I finish a game, it seems I always end up with about the same score. (As opposed to the PC version where high score battles are waged regularly in my house.) A remedy to that would have been to include a battery in the cartridge so as to eliminate ANOTHER hassle, having to change the preferences everytime I turn the game on.
And I SWEAR that every time I start an "Evil" game after turning the game on, it's the exact same one as the one before.
Another thing that is amiss is the sounds. One of the most endearing things about the PC version is the trademark sounds...the "boings" and little tunes when you drop a bunch of Snoods. Heck, I even love the "Please" you hear in the beginning. I gather so do many other people, which is why its an option to turn it back on even AFTER you register the game. And the GBA also has background music. Background music in Snood? Since when?
I'm beginning to think Dave Dobson (the creator of SNOOD) had NOTHING at all to do with this incarnation. It is missing so many things that the PC version has, which make it such a great game. First and foremost, it's missing heart.

Snood is Fun!!

It is one of the best games I have ever played. I first played it on the computer. It keeps you playing all the time and makes you never want to put your game boy down. I would suggest that anyone who likes fun and challenging arcade game to buy this amazing game.
