Will You Snail? (2022)

trophy30 achievementsextension1 DLCgroup100k–1M ownersrecommend2.4k recommendations
A unique platformer where an evil AI predicts your movement. Dodge AI-spawned traps, solve optional puzzles and uncover the dark secrets of the simulation. Now with a level editor and infinite community-made content! A lot of levels in Will You Snail are relatively empty by default. The challenge comes from the interactions with the evil AI. You will jump, run, dodge and die. This game is precise, fast-paced and challenging. (Stay cool, you can change the difficulty at any time.) The evil AI Squid tries to predict your movement a few seconds ahead of time and uses that information in an attempt to stop you from reaching the end of the level. Will you win that intellectual battle, or will Squid find yet another reason to make fun of you? Take a break from the action and challenge yourself with a variety of puzzles, ranging from easy to quite difficult. All puzzles are completely optional and can be skipped, allowing you to fully customize your gaming experience. Find secrets, collect clues and try to piece together where you are and what happened. Will You Snail tells a rather crazy story about artificial intelligence, simulation theory, and the future of humanity. Now with a level editor with Steam Workshop support! Unleash your imagination and dive into a world of endless possibilities. Build and play custom-made levels, share your creativity, watch others suffer, and take on new challenges yourself. Infinite creativity. Infinite nonsense. Infinite pain. Infinite content.

If you like 3-4 points: Hmmm. Unfortunately, I'm not entirely sure you'll like my game. Maybe wait for a good discount if you really want to try it out. If you like 0-2 points: Sorry, this game is not for you. I want to thank you all so much for your support with this project, especially my YouTube community, which helped a ton with playtesting, translations, and keeping me motivated. This is the first commercial game I'm releasing on my own, so your support means the world to me. Thank you for making this game possible!

Press Quotes

“Will You SnAIl? is an expertly crafted action platformer, with gripping gameplay, a heart-wrenching futuristic story and a villain you can't help but love to hate.” 10/10 – Pure Nintendo “Overall, I think Will You Snail? is an excellent time. It was short for the price point, but that was one of my few concerns. It performed well, kept me engaged, and never felt too overwhelming despite being a rage-inducing game. Will You Snail? is an easy game to recommend.”…
