What if you could play *Snake* in 3D? The new *qrth-phyl*, by Hermit Games, is basically a 3D version of the arcade and cell phone classic, but the levels are random. Jeffrey Matulef on Eurogamer explains:

> Qrth-phyl features self-generating code, so the challenges won’t play out the same way twice, and intriguingly Hermit Games bills it as an “arcade documentary,” that explores the beginnings of it source material.  
>  
> The game also features an adaptive difficulty ala Hermit’s last game, the shmup Leave Home, which our Kristan Reed awarded an 8/10 in his [digital roundup](http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2010-08-20-download-games-roundup-review?ref=killscreen.com) where he wrote, “With its disturbingly frazzled intro and mangled retro aesthetic, this is a glorious trip into one man’s fractured imagination.”

The game comes out today on XBLA and PC.
