The game uses most of the mechanics of the late 1970s game Snake.[2] The goal consists of taking the balls and throwing them into the hole at the center of the stage. While the game has many variations of gameplay, the main goal stays the same.
Snakeball has a flashy disco graphic style, with stages that are taking places on disco floors.[3] The player can also choose between 16 characters with 8 colors each. The PlayStation Eye camera can be used to snap a picture of the player's face and map it onto one of the riders.
Snakeball has three main game modes: Snakeball, Challenge and Ball Frenzy. Snakeball is the multiplayer mode, where up to eight players can play online. There are 10 variations of game for this mode:
The second game mode is Challenge, where the player must navigate through levels to open the teleporter and go to the next level. 14 levels are available. The last one is Ball Frenzy, which is a remake of the classic game Snake, with 10 levels. The goal of this mode is to get all the 1000 balls that are in the level without crashing and destroying the ship.
An additional mode, Team Mode was released on the PlayStation Store as downloadable content in May 2008. It includes team-based online and offline multiplayer matches up to 8 players.[4]
