Snakes & Stakes - Meet the Latest Stake Original

There's never a dull day at Stake. The ideas from their development team are always top notch and every now and then we receive a new original game from this online crypto casino and sports betting outlet. In a short while a new original inspired by a classic board game is coming our way. We're talking about a high-stakes version of Snakes which is going to be quite an original twist on a familiar board game. It's going to be an interesting mesh of luck and risk.

The game will start with players rolling the dice to move around the board. In order to win a player will have to land on a spot marked by a multiplier. The higher the bet, the higher the multiplier, the bigger the win. As we're all sued the game will be initiated by two dice, that is a clear sign that we're having a game of volatility. The volatility will have an option to be predetermined before each round. Remember, the higher the volatility, more risk is involved, but chances for a big win grow too.

Of course, the risk comes in the form of snake fields. Land on one of these and it's a life lost, a bet lost, and you win nothing. The game is going to be captivating as running away from snakes, landing on multipliers, collecting massive payouts or being lost in the jaws of a snake is a recipe for excitement. Are you ready to take on this adventure on stake.com? You better get ready as this game is scheduled to be released in less than a few weeks.

While a lot of focus is put into making levels of the games differ one from another, the UI will still remain intuitive, in order to keep the game as fast-paced as first intended.

Gameplay Mechanics

At the end of the day, the talk about the game will not attract all players. What will be the gameplay offered? For many online casino visitors, what happens inside the game, and not the hype around it, is what matters. That's why we're going to talk about the gameplay mechanics that are known to us at this point:

• The Board Mechanic: Snakes board is going to be a 12-space board. On these boards there's going to be plenty of multipliers and snakes spread around. The game will start with players setting their bets. After that the game will move toward the dice roll. Once the dice stops, the total score will be revealed. As you move across the board it will highlight each tile you cross on the path. By doing this the anticipation of awaiting the figure to reach the final landing spot, revealing either a multiplier or a snake.

• Dice Duration: Here's the best part. Each dice roll only lasts a few seconds tops. The anticipation of the game is not created here by making it last long, but on the board where the dice shows different numbers as it rolls on the board while reaching the total. After only a few moments the dice stop and show the outcome, and the result is the sum of both.

• Volatility Range: As we already stated, the board is going to be filled with different multipliers, but also with more than a few snakes. Before the game starts each player has a possibility of choosing the difficulty level. When you get the hang of the game, and develop the strategy to bet accordingly, you will arrange the difficulty level in the same vein. With more added difficulty, the volatility increases, the multipliers increase too, but also the number of snakes does.

So, to help you decide which difficulty level to choose, let's talk about the disparity between the snakes and multipliers on each level. If you choose the easy difficulty level, with low volatility, you will only have 1 snake on the board but the multipliers will range from 1.08X - 1.96X. Medium level makes things better as it adds greater chances of winning with multipliers ranging from 1.15X - 3.92X, but the number of snakes on the board rises to 3. Moving onto the hard level really means hard in the core sense of the word as there will be 5 snakes on the board. That's a great risk of losing, but if you land on a multiplier you can have big payouts as the multipliers will range from 1.5X - 7.35X. Expert mode will bless each player with multipliers ranging from 4.0X - 9.8X, but also with a staggering number of 7 snakes across the board. As if this classification was not enough, this Stake original also has a Master level of difficulty which is paired with 9 snakes and a multiplier of 17.64 X.

As you can see, this game will offer plenty for everyone. There's the Easy mode for beginners, and the Master mode for those who feel they've mastered this game both at home and in a casino. The bigger the risk the higher the reward is always a formula that works in casinos, and we're sure many players will recognize that equation with Snakes.

Betting Options

With each round of Snakes players can arrange the bet size according to their gut feeling and appetites. In the domain of making bets and depositing funds, this Stake original will be similar to their other titles in the sense that your currency will be displayed in the player's wallet as decided in the currency settings. This time around you will be greeted by a betting panel with full & easy access that will certainly improve your overall betting experience. As it's usually the case, each bet is measured by multiplying your initial bet with the multiplier on which the player has landed. So, if you wager 20 coins, and you bet lands on the x7 multiplier, the formula applied is 20x7, and your win will be 140 coins.

Another great betting option available with Snakes is called Auto-Bet. When you pick this option, you will automatically have to select all available options that include the game mode/volatility, the amount you want to wager, the number of rounds you want to play in one session ranging from 1 to infinity, stops at designated profit and loss and win/loss percentages margins. When playing on Auto-Bet you need to be aware of your account balance, making sure that your deposited funds correlate to your selected bet and the number of rounds you want to run on Auto-Bet feature. When you no longer feel like playing the game in this mode you need to switch it off.

In addition to Auto-Bet players with lack of patience are also blessed with an Instant Bet feature. If you decide to play in this mode, your game will be stripped of all of its animations and delays. There will be no dice roll, not even by mere seconds, the dice will just land on the board, show the total, and present you with a win or a loss.

What high rollers might not like about this game, is that Snakes, just like the rest of the Stake originals, come with a Max Payout limit. At the moment, the rumoured limit is set at 20 BTC but it might differ depending on the currency you plan to use. As far as maximum bet goes its limit is set at 100BTC, but it can also differ depending on the currency used. Also, you have the top multiplier set at 1851776.64X which can be activated if you hit one 5 rolls in a row while playing the game in the Master mode. With an RTP of 98%, Snakes are already an amazing promise of big wins to all future players.

With everything above said, all that is left to do is to wait for the official release of the Stake latest original called Snakes.
