Honestly, it's been a few years since I last played Snood, and I'm not sure I remember what "Magic Snoods" are. There appear to be something called "Ghosts" -- "As you level up in your Snoodio quest, you will encounter the 'ghosts'. These are grey eggs that will only vanish when you hook up 3 or more of the same eggs that are attached to a ghost."
Here's something potentially interesting that I just noticed. There are 4 difficulty modes: Easy, Medium, Hard and Evil. I've just run through a quick Evil game, and it was identical (from what I could tell) to the Easy game I already played. It starts with two rows of "snoods" and even though this was "Evil," my danger level never got high enough that another row dropped (I eventually lost... but I also unlocked a theme at 1000 pts). I wonder if this could be a bug. I checked Medium and Hard, briefly, and they seemed to be the same too.
Something else of note: it seems that the controls only really work properly when the device is completely vertical. This is not the most comfortable position. You tend to want to hold the device at a slight angle, but the controls do not react kindly to angles.
Ugh, I'm disappointed. For $3, I've come to expect a little bit more. I'm pleased with the load time (especially compared to Bubble Bash), and the pleasant music and graphics, etc. etc. But I remain frustrated with the controls (and confused about the difficulty modes). This game definitely has potential though... if they work on the fundamentals.
