Nimble Quest is an action RPG video game which was originally released by NimbleBit on March 28, 2013. Originally a free-to-play game for iOS and Android, a Steam version was released on December 6, 2013 as a paid version.[1] The game is a combination of an action RPG and the classic Snake concept.[2] The player moves around and kills enemies using a combination of ranged attacks or melee attacks depending on the character. Once enough enemies are killed, the player advances to the next level. If the player hits a wall or an enemy, or runs out of health, the game ends.
The original version of the game no longer functions on the iPad after upgrading to iOS 11.[citation needed] In September 2024 new iOS and Android versions were released by Halfbrick Studios.[3][4]
Characters
The game has 16 main characters called "heroes" to play as. The player unlocks these heroes by beating a level. Heroes can be added to the "snake" when they are randomly dropped from an enemy the player killed. The player starts out with 3 characters.
Reception
The game has received mostly positive reviews. It is rated 4.5 stars out of 5 on the App Store, where it received Editor's Choice upon its release.[5] Gamezebo's 4.5 star review described it as "seriously potent fun."[2]
On 2025, Tidepool Games released MageTrain, a snake game inspired by Nimble Quest.[6]
