Theres a book 4 rate it 5 stars so yae.
Amazing app, fun and can sometimes be a bit challenging. Weve been playing this for years, when our kids were six (and very restricted on screens) and its still fun now that theyre teenagers.
Im 10 years old now and we have had this game on our old iPad snail bob 1 and 2 we were 6 years old at the beach and we saw a YouTuber playing it and thats how we first heard about it.
This game is so fun definitely recommend for young children.
The only way to make it happen would have to go through an attorney.
We play this when we were a kids we are 16 and still playing akshel.
We used to play this game when we were younger and it was our favorite. We recently downloaded it again and its just as fun as we remember.
Absolutely incredible and amazing.
Snail Bob has always been fun for us when we were a child and it still is today! Thank you for being our childhood, Snail Bob.
It was very fun to play and figure out the process of.
Even though the music on Bob in Space sounds different than the old type on the iPad where it would sound almost identical to what you could sleep to as a kid, this different one kind of sounds identical to music you could dance to at a wedding, and it sounds very relaxing to us. Even though gameplays (we remembered) rarely became (partially) why we had (2% strange) dreams overtime, we recently had a dream that we ran on top of thick glass of the top of an outdoor wall with color cycling lights pointing upward and jumped over gaps between them in the dark where we could see houses looking like greenhouses, so we wasn't sure if this music being different was (partially) why we dreamed about this, or the yellow lines that often have yellow circles and blue transformation lines almost identical to Christmas light colors to us, and therefore were (partially) why we dreamed about this. We kind of think it's fun when gameplays and/or things we see in our mind sometimes become (partially) why we have these (2% strange) dreams with (98% of) everything (else) related to in-person things overtime, even though we haven't figured out if anyone else had (2% strange) dreams (partially) due to gameplays (as a kid).
Ive played this game throughout our childhood and we recently found our old phone so we play this a lot now. Really cool game.
THIS GAME IS SO WELL DESIGNED AND FUN! Maybe the stars are a little obvious but that's perfect for younger players(?) This is in our top 5 App Store games!!!!! Well done!!! Eeeeeeeeeeeee jwb wrote a review that mentions the old space music, and we agree with them… We didn't even know the new music existed, and we hope that music comes to yt.
Like Im just trying not to act obsessed but we are.
This game built our childhood and the best game of all time.
Cute snail and characters we like :D.
We love this game so much we cant even stop laughing.
Its such a great game, but we do know that Dogs is Space was very easy to play, because its the only game where theres no game over of level failed. Maybe one of these days Ill try out FireBoy and WaterGirl, Jelly Dad Hero, Cat Shmat, and Wheely because Im getting older and we want to try something harder. We should probably work up our way with FireBoy and WaterGirl! We should probably do 2, 6, and 7 after we finish 1, 3, 5, and 4 first! But the new levels coming soon we do really want to check out right now.
Great little time waster! And we mean that in the best possible way! This is a delightful little game, not too hard and not too easy. Cant wait for more levels.
Oh god. We remember playing this game over half of our lifetime ago. We have it on most of our devices, but one version stands out as the best out of all of them. On our really old IPad, we have an older version of this app that has the old bob in space music, aka one of, if not the best music we know. We would really like to have that song on yt. Ive looked everywhere, but its always the upbeat and adventurous music, instead of the slow and mysterious song. Is there anywhere we can find it? That song means a lot to us and our brother. Thanks for one of the best games of our early childhood.
This beautiful creation is a masterpiece.
We have played this game on our grandmas pad as long as we can remember. And every time they come to town, we get to play. It has been over 10 years and we have finally beat the game, we have no complaints about this game. We think it is amazing and you definitely should buy it.
Our favorite game growing up and im so happy it's still up! Can't wait for more episodes.
We think it is good because our little brother plays it everyday and he is always entertained.
We used to love playing the space levels. Make a Snail Bob Space game.
Its great and fun for anyone to play. If youre looking at this review download this game now.
Snail Bob is a game that we found on the App Store and we instantly fell in love with its one of those games where the puzzle is the key and if youre not a puzzle man then dont download it Im a puzzle man and we love the game for a puzzle man you will love it.
A friend recommended this game for our kids. Not only did our kids love it but it gets them thinking logically to solve the puzzle on how to get Snail Bob through.
We love the game sooooo much the animation is hilarious.
Snail bob is a great simple game to play. Although its a mobile game, it goes on our list for the best games of all time! It was our childhood playing this game and every chapter offers something new and exciting! Increasing in difficulty and more fun.
This game is very addictive and we would love it if they added more levels.
We had a hard time finding all the stars as a kid and now its quite easy. Over all fun game.
Our 5yo loves this. Its a very low-key, low-pressure game that forces him to use his brain to figure out the puzzles. He loves it.
We came to this game in an ad, and decided to give it a shot. Great game. Ive played it over and over, our kids have played it and have made a small competition out of who can beat the game and get the stars the fastest. Its been great. We hope they add new levels because we need more.
Very good! Awesome Awesome Awesome!!!! Our childhood game! Gives us such childhood nostalgia everything will time we play.
This game is so funny and fun but we wish there were more levels. We beat the game already so please make a new update. Thanks.
This game changed us. It inspires us to do good. The game we all have wanted. We were a loser before this game was created. Then we hit it. The Snail Bob game. The game that gives you the biggest tingles. We hope everyone has the tingles when playing this game.
We love this game so much but it isnt hard enough.
We have been playing this game for a very long time and now our friends play it a and our family.
Grand kids LOVE THIS GAME- and have for years. They learn problem solving through obstacles!! LOVE IT.
This game was really fun and kept us entertained even when we finished the game.
We love this game the reason we got into the game is from Sunday school some days at Sunday school you git to do computers and we saw a game called snail bob and we instantly played it thanks for the awesome game.
We have been playing this game for 8 years and have beaten it tons of times but it never gets old. Thank you snailbob for entertaining us for so long.
Us and our sister played this game together and thought it was extraordinary!!! Her nickname is Bugs because she loves…..well, bugs! This was a great game for us to play together, even though shes 6 and Im 11. Cheers to a great game! Fun for all ages. Oh, and we were wondering what the trick is to level 20 of the Nile Mile.
THIS IS THE BEST ALONG WHITH THE ATHERS LIKE SNIL BOB 2 3 and 4 ITS SO GOOD.
When is the new level coming out.
This is one of the best puzzle games we have ever played on the iphone. Most get very difficult the deeper you go into the game but this one keeps a medium difficulty all the way through. NICE JOB.
We LOVE THIS GAME!!! We have played it since we were a little kid.
