Via Serpentis - alpha demo -compatible with mobile and desktop.

This is an educational hidden object game that I am currently developing. Here you will learn all about the snake species that inhabit Aruba, while you make a short 2D expedition through the country. Each of the species in the game emulates their real-world range and abundance rate,also they will be in a different location everytime time you play, so each expedition will be different. Also you will find valuable facts about their biology, expressed in simple terms, carefully supported by scientific articles, field studies and books.


Please, leave your comments and suggestions, this game is still under development. 


Don't  forget to share.

What a cool way to learn about snakes!! Thanks!

I'm fond of these illustrations, the simple way the character takes us there and tells us what to do, and the fact there is an "end" once we found the 3 species.

Here's points I thought about to make this educational game even better (in my opinion)

  • Once the viewpoints are read, it would be less disturbing if they stopped flashing (for example it grays out and stops moving)
  • It would be great if, when you leave the snake description page, the map didn't unzoom.
  • The goat started to bleat when I clicked on it and then it didn't stop during the whole game, it was a bit annoying as a sound
  • It could be interesting to add dimensional markers, like on the maps ("10KM" / "1KM" / "200M" when zooming in etc.) or otherwise in some of the descriptions, for example those of the rock formation or the natural bridge because I'm curious to have this info to realize the global size of the island

Thanks again for your game and other interactive content about snake, that's awesome

Hi Angela, thanks for the feedback.

Sorry about the unzooming map, the game should stick to the area and zoom you have before going to the info section. Im going to check what happened, Im sure It was something i moved in the code last night 😁.

Thanks again 🙂

Cool, then I’m happy 😊 It seems that the problem is only on PC, is not happening in mobile. I”‘m still can’t find the issue. BTW, I made an update with your suggestion about the eyes icons. Thanks again
