The Secret Snails are NPCs in Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall and its fan revival. They are magical snails from the Land of Ooo who had inched their way onto the Earth.[1][2] Legend has it that each Secret Snail will transport those who find them to a place with unique gear.[2]
History[]
Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall[]
Fusion Invasion[]
The Future[]
In the Future, two Secret Snails had inched their way onto the remains of the Earth from the Land of Ooo. Soon after, legends would arise about how they would warp those who found them to a magical glade where those people would find some exclusive items.[2] This would initiate the "Snail Quest" amongst the soldiers opposing the Fusion Invasion.
The Past[]
In the Past, ten Secret Snails would inch the way onto the Earth from the Land of Ooo.[2] Soon after, legends would arise about how they would warp those who found them to a magical glade where those people would find some exclusive items.[2] This would initiate the "Snail Quest" amongst the soldiers opposing the Fusion Invasion.
FusionFall Retro[]
In FusionFall Retro, the Secret Snail appeared during the Ice King Invasion event and received a brand new texture. During the event, it stood next to an egg that gave the player the Ice King Underwear shirt.
Snail Quest[]
The Snail Quest[2] refers to the search for twelve Secret Snails hidden throughout Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall. They are often found in obscure or ridiculously hard-to-reach places throughout the Wilds, the Suburbs, Downtown, the Darklands, and even the Future.
Once found, warping with a Secret Snail will transport the Avatar to an enclosed magical glade[2] that contains only the Secret Snail and a single one of Coco's Egg. This egg, either normal or golden, will always give the Avatar a Secret Treasure that awards a special item. The glade is randomly generated for each Avatar, so no one will have to share unless with a group. Each glade also hosts only one item. Picking up Coco's Egg multiple times or revisiting the glade just provides the same item. The locations of the Secret Snails and their items are as follows:
Game changes[]
Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall[]
- On 13 January 2011, the Secret Snails were added to the game.[1]
Origin[]
The Snail originates from the 2010 American fantasy animated television series Adventure Time. In that media, he is a recurring side character in the series. A small anthropomorphic snail, he makes frequent cameos throughout the series. He can be seen in most episodes, hiding in plain view where he usually waves at the viewer.
The Snail eventually played a significant role in the Lich's release from his present-day prison. Having snuck into the Lich's prison hall in Finn's backpack without receiving protection from his spellcasting, the Snail fell under the Lich's control and broke him free of his confinement. When the Lich's physical form was later destroyed, his spirit possessed the Snail until it could take control of Billy.
Trivia[]
- In Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall, the Secret Snails hold the familiar wave from Adventure Time, but lack movement and voices.
