GROMBI FACT DROPREAL-WORLD TRIVIA
A strange little side quest
A quick detour while Snail Bob waits for your next move: Arthur Wynne published a diamond-shaped 'Word-Cross' in the New York World on December 21, 1913; the name later shifted to 'Cross-Word' and then 'crossword'. The timeline takes another interesting turn: Early computer role-playing games helped turn rules, inventories, exploration and character progression into systems that could support long-form digital adventures. Not bad for a few facts hiding behind a Play button.

What you are getting into
Snail Bob is a platform puzzle game that features simple but exciting point-and-click mechanics. The game follows the journey of Bob, a heroic snail who has been kicked out of his home by humans. Your task is to guide him through the world and help him locate his perfect new home. During each level, you must operate a variety of mechanical equipment such as levers to allow Snail Bob to pass through unharmed. As you progress, the challenges become increasingly difficult, and you must use your logic and puzzle-solving abilities to persevere. The game was initially released in November 2010 as a Flash game and was updated in March 2017 with an HTML5 version, allowing it to be played on modern browsers and mobile devices. The game’s original and the very first episode of the Snail Bob series features nice animations and artworks, and many mechanical things to operate. If you’re looking for a fun and challenging game that will keep you entertained for several minutes, Snail Bob is the perfect choice!
