It's a cross between a…
Snakebird Primer By: Noumenon Games Snakebird Primer is an easier version of Snakebird, meant for kids or people who had trouble with the original game. It should help prepare you for the harder game, but there are still some tricky puzzles. If you get stuck, it's more fun to figure out the solution yourself, but you can also try this walkthrough guide. Feel free to ask for extra help in the comments…
