A Snake[1] is an enemy in Mario Clash. Snakes resemble normal snakes except with spikes protruding from their heads. A Snake routinely multiplies by producing an egg from its mouth, which will soon hatch into another Snake. Snakes can be defeated by having a Koopa Shell thrown at their sides to stun them and again from any angle to finish them off. Their eggs can be defeated by touching them or throwing a shell at them. Snakes are referred to by feminine pronouns in localized manuals.[1]
