Super Sea Snails are powerful creatures that can upgrade your gear. But you'll need to find a specialist... Someone who knows how to unlock the power of Super Sea Snails. I hate to say it, but maybe you should check that sketchy back alley. Super Sea Snails are mega valuable. Don't let 'em go to waste!
— In game on first getting Super Sea Snails

Super Sea Snails (Japanese: スーパーサザエ Super Sazae) are a species and also type of currency in Splatoon. They can only be obtained by participating in Splatfests. Currently, their sole use is to be given to Spyke, who uses them to increase the number of slots on gear or reroll all gear abilities on a select piece of gear. Spyke can also do this without a Sea Snail, but the player must be level 20 or higher, and it costs File:30000 Icon Cash.png.

Earning

Super Sea Snails are awarded to participants based on the size of their team and matches won, which dictate each player's Splatfest title. Users who participate can win at least two Super Sea Snails and up to twenty-four if the player's team is the winner while the player is at the highest tier.

Trivia

  • The Super Sea Snails slightly resemble a rock mushroom from Super Mario Galaxy 2.
  • The gear slot properties of Super Sea Snails seem to lie more in their actual shells than the snails themselves, which according to Spyke are "juicy". This implies the snails are irrelevant to the process, but can be consumed by certain species like urchins.
  • Super Sea Snails seem to be capable of fear: when looking at the ones owned by Spyke, it is possible to see them shake as if certain of their fate of being consumed by Spyke.
