In Snot Splatter, you may find yourself in a rather sticky situation; Meuka has continued his plans for world domination by creating sticky webs full of mucus in the Haunted Woods. If any Neopets or Petpets get stuck in his webs, they'll be trapped for hours. The goal is to clear the board and destroy his sticky webs by "blowing up" blobs of snot -- literally!
In this game, the only thing you'll be using is your mouse.
The first thing you will notice is the individual tiles of snot. The larger blobs of snot will take up a larger portion of one tile, whilst the smaller blobs will be exactly that -- smaller. When you "blow up" a blob of snot (blow up the larger ones first), it will release four droplets in all four directions (up, down, left, and right). If a droplet hits another large blob that's about ready to explode, it'll pop, releasing another four droplets, thus creating a chain reaction.
On the left side of the screen, there is a jar of mucus with a number inside of it. This number is the amount of clicks left before you're out of moves (and the game ends). It decreases by one every time you click a snot blob; it increases when you create a chain reaction.
Below that jar are your bonuses. Click one to activate it, then click a tile to use that bonus selected.
From top to bottom, these are the bonuses and how they function:
This game may seem random at first, but it's actually far from it. Each move must be carefully plotted in order to clear the board in the given amount of moves. Here are a couple of tips.
First, focus on where the largest blobs are concentrated. There can be multiple concentrations. A concentration is three or more blobs that are their largest, just before they explode. You want to try and find the "center blob" of that concentration and explode that one; that's how you can get the biggest chain reactions to occur. Simply destroy those concentrations and allow the droplets to make the smaller blobs bigger. I have beaten the first level in ONE MOVE using this strategy.
Second, consider make "2-click" blobs "1-click" blobs, creating your own concentrations (or strengthening ones already there) for bigger and better combos. One click blobs explode if you click them. The size just below that requires two clicks to explode. You may want to consider adding another drop to those 2-click blobs, that's all. Your amount of moves left should ALWAYS break even using this strategy. If you don't think you can break even, don't use this strategy.
After creating your own concentrations, learn when to use the score doubler. Don't use the score doubler if you have a gut feeling that your combo won't be big. Knowing when to use this bonus will greatly improve your score.
Lastly, always use your 3x3 box, column clearer, and row clearer to destroy concentrations of predominantly smaller blobs. You don't want to destroy large blobs, because that's where your chain reactions happen, although destroying one or two of them doesn't hurt (it'll happen).
It will take a couple of plays to understand this game. But remember that, although it may appear this way, this game is not purely random. If you leave things to chance, you won't get a high score; focus on those "concentrations", strengthen them, remove small blobs, and let the snot fly!
Good luck!
