I want to publicly thank metalcasket for agreeing to a petition submitted by Roger-NL and me to feature this game here as well as Roger-NL for making his initial petition.

For the record, I have no affiliation with the developer of this game. I discovered this game by chance while playing another logic puzzle game called R-Ray made by the same developer.

I was intrigued by SnakekanS because of its very clever take on the classic Snake game mechanics. Some of the features that made this game a standout compared to other Snake clones are:

- Tight space constraints. Many puzzles often require very clever and efficient negotiation of tight spaces to execute the solutions.
- Unique solutions. Most (but not all) levels have unique solutions. For the few levels with different solution paths, they are mere trivial variants. A difficult feat to accomplish for games of this type.
- Clever mechanic modifiers. The game continually introduces new mechanic modifiers to modify the snake's behavior each time it devours a prey. These modifiers make for some very clever solutions in the game's later puzzles.

Like Roger-NL, I am also stuck in one of the game's later puzzles. I am stuck on level 45. Sadly, I have not been successful in locating the game's developer to ask if this level is bugged (possible but unlikely). I can explicitly confirm that Level 1 to Level 44 are all solvable. Thus, if any TA forum member is willing to try out this game, please kindly post your progress here.
