Help, an Immortal Snail Is Chasing My Mouse Cursor While I Work and If It Touches Me I Can Never Play This Game Again

‘Don’t Touch the Snail’ turns the immortal-snail meme into a desktop overlay game where a snail slowly chases your mouse cursor.

The game adds leaderboards, achievements, and cosmetic shells bought with in-game coins, making the absurd premise feel like a real challenge.

The writer found it easy in theory but unexpectedly hard to manage across multiple monitors, especially while trying to multitask.

Their run ended after 37 minutes and 19 seconds when the cursor touched the snail, permanently locking them out of play.
