About

Nimble Quest is an action RPG video game which was originally released by NimbleBit on March 28, 2013. Originally a free-to-play game for iOS and Android, a Steam version was released on December 6, 2013 as a paid version. The game is a combination of an action RPG and the classic Snake concept. The player moves around and kills enemies using a combination of ranged attacks or melee attacks depending on the character.

Once enough enemies are killed, the player advances to the next level. If the player hits a wall or an enemy, or runs out of health, the game ends.
