About the game
Enter the dragon's lair! Snap together dragons of all shapes and sizes in this game of strategy and suspense. The longer the dragon, the higher your score. Rack up big points when you ally with a tiger. But watch where you connect your tiles- the game can change in a snap! From simple matching to strategic thinking, it's "lairs" of fun with four games in one. It is actually more like three games and a puzzle in the box. Snap is a strategy game of tile placement suitable for adults. Double Snap and Dragon Parade are simpler games designed for children. Dragon King is a puzzle that can earn you a chance at a free game. —description from the publisher
