Any game featuring a whip-toting, fedora-sporting treasure hunter also stipulates the ophidiophobic hero's worst fear.
Snakes are basic enemies that appear primarily in The Mines, but may also occasionally be found hiding in pots in later areas.
They are the primary feature of the Snake Pit.
Snakes are also one of 3 enemies that appear in the tutorial, the others being Shopkeepers and Bats.
Strategy[]
Snakes are weak enemies with 1 HP. They are killed by most attacks in the game, but will only be dazed by the camera.
On flat ground they will slither back and forth, turning when they reach a wall or ledge. They will simply remain still if they're stuck on a single-tile-wide platform, making them an easy target.
