long ago, The Colossal Cave Adventure was the most fun game i played on a computer. years later, I had attempted to beat the classic game, but again was stumped. despite failing to complete the game, the love for text-based adventure games inspired my imagination to create one of my own. i have never done anything like this and suddenly, SnikSnak became my first attempt at making a funny, puzzley, story game won by using your imagination!

this story popped into my head, and with the coding help of ChatGPT, the following game emerged: SnikSnak: Escape from the Snak-O-Matik 9000. A text-based puzzle game where a single player becomes Sqik, an adorable, tiny, hungry, curious mouse who finds himself stuck in a vending machine and must use cunning logic and creative ideas to find his way out before starving to death or being exterminated! if you play this game, PLEASE leave me feedback/report bugs and help me to know if anything is broken and if you enjoyed your game time.
good luck and happy squeaking!

Snik Snak is a quirky, text-based puzzle adventure where you play as Sqik, a curious (and now very full) little mouse who’s gotten himself stuck inside a vending machine. With a belly round to the max, you’re now trapped after devouring a sticky bun. you must sniff, explore, collect snacks, solve sticky puzzles, and outsmart the machine’s odd challenges — all before time runs out. Can you escape before the vendor returns… or will you become just another urban legend in the break room?

Snik Snak - Text Adventure

🐭 Welcome to SNIK SNAK by Tiffany Rachel Games ©2025

You are Sqik, a tiny mouse trapped inside a vending machine; seemingly of your own gluttonous doing. You were lured here by the gooey glaze of a Sticky Bun glistening in the gears beyond the glass wall. Driven by hunger, you squeezed through the flap labelled "PUSH", tumbled past a spring-loaded chip bag, and landed — plop — right in the spiral of Shelf B3. The sticky bun was worth it. Maybe. But now your belly is full and round, and you're wedged between the coils, too plump to wiggle free just yet. Type LOOK to examine your surroundings. Type HELP for a list of commands.
