Snake Wars is a defense game with parking lot sorting, match-3 and bubble-popping elements. A white cat wearing a red helmet needs the player's help to stop massive snakes from causing damage in a rural kingdom. It also needs the player to stop each snake from eating it.
The game shows the cat running from a snake on a section of a winding road. Below the road in a storage area marked by concrete blocks, it provides parked tanks that can fire color-matched projectiles at a snake's scales. Each shot destroys one or more pieces of a snake.
The player can't simply direct a tank to start shooting from this parking lot. Instead, they must first select tanks for transfer to six or more small circular spots above it. When they pick three matching tanks, the game merges the artillery and places a larger cannon on one or more big spots next to the road. The cannon auto-fires at the snake's scales.
Snake Wars has boosters that enhance play as well. For example, the player can strike the snake with lightning bolts or unlock an extra spot for a cannon. The player can also perform some tasks, such as unlocking cannon spots and earning extra coins and boosters, by viewing ad videos.
The Store, accessible via a lower-left corner button on the home screen, offers the player options to upgrade the cat's appearance with their coins. The player can make the cat look like an armored soldier, a king, a forest archer, and even a ninja.
