About Snakes and Letters
Snakes and Letters, or Snakes 'n Letters to give it its proper name, is a classic online word game in a slightly surreal setting of snakes trying to eat a hamster. Winners will be players who can create words quickly in their heads at the same time as keeping their eye on what time they have left in the game and other letters to come. A bit like patting your head and rubbing your stomach at the same time - just a bit more fun!
If you are into free word games online this could be the one for you. You can practice before joining the leaderboards or playing a prize tournament against other real players.
