About the game

What you do in a play session

Snails is a strategy and action game where you command a squad of superpowered snails in epic and hilarious battles. Each snail hero has unique abilities and an absurd arsenal—from bazookas to toxic barrels—all to ensure your team is the last mollusk standing. The modular board and islands that crumble during gameplay ensure each match is unique, with surprises like angry crabs and hidden gear. The programmed movement and action card mechanics add a layer of strategy, while the cartoonish art by French illustrator Djib Reynaud sets the perfect tone for the chaos. It’s fast, fun, and ideal for those who enjoy games with a dash of humor and fierce competition.
