This snapper lives in tight spaces. It can stretch like you wouldn't believe!

Games[]

Kirby's Epic Yarn and Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn[]

Snip-Snaps only appear in Cool Cave, Splash Beach, and Tube Town. A Snip-Snap will only attack Kirby and Prince Fluff if they pass over its territory, which will always appear as a small, shallow hole in narrow tunnels. If the Snip-Snap grabs one of the two while they are in their Snake form, they will be dragged back to their starting point and lose beads. If they come in contact with a Snip-Snap outside of Snake form, they will be knocked back and lose beads. In Tube Town, if a Snip-Snap is led to an outlet, it will transform into a plug and either move or change the yarn platforms that look like cathode ray traces. Whether plugged into an outlet or not, a Snip-Snap can be unraveled by using the Yarn Whip on its button, but a new one will come out if the player passes by the same territory again.
