Snake Pit

Snake pits were a historical European means of imposing capital punishment. Convicts were cast into a deep pit containing venomous snakes, such as vipers. They died from snake venom poisoning as the irritated snakes attacked them.

A well known example of execution by this method is that of the Viking warlord Ragnar Lodbrok in 865, after his army was defeated in battle by King Aelle II of Northumbria.

In common usage, "snake pit" also means an institution (such as a school, prison, hospital or nursing home) or organization led in an inept or inhumane way.



Snake Pit is based off of an old fun classic game, that you may recognize as Snake. The game is simple, but has hours of fun put into it!

To make suggestions, report bugs, or just give feedback, there is an in-game verb called 'Report' in which you fill out an HTML form and it sends me what you say, whether its a bug, a suggestion or just feedback. You can use this function if you wish to contact me and I am not in Snake Pit, or just around and you can't find me. You can also use the forums to report bugs, give suggestions, or post your feedback on the game.
