Snatch Game is a main challenge, where contestants showcase their best celebrity impersonations in a game show setting. The Snatch Game challenge was first featured in Season 2 of RuPaul's Drag Race, where it became a popular fan favorite and was subsequently featured again in Seasons 3-11, and is a highly anticipated episode by viewers.
Snatch Game is a parody of the classic TV show, "Match Game", which aired from 1962 to 1991, where contestants attempted to match celebrities' answers to "fill-in-the-blank" questions. The term snatch is also used as a vulgar slang term referring to a woman's vagina, hence the name Snatch Game, since the contestants are (almost always) impersonating women.
Rules of Snatch Game
1. RuPaul shouts out a random question from a deck of cards and tells it to one of the guest stars/celebrities. The Queens must listen to the question and fill in the blank with their own answer.
2. The Queens' answers must match the guest celebrities in order to gain points.
3. If a Queen gets a correct, matching answer, one of the celebrities gets a point.
4. At the end of the game, the points do not matter and have no effect on judging, since the Queens are judged by their impersonation and comedy.

Trivia
- The segment initially featured nine panelists (per the original Match Game format), while later seasons varied the number.
- During the first season of All Stars, a segment called Gaff -In took place, in which the queens delivered celebrity impersonations by teams and had to write original comedy material for a Laugh-In style sketch show.
- On the fourth season of All Stars, the Snatch Game segment was based on The Dating Game show.
- Celebrities who have been impersonated on Snatch Game will often comment on their impersonation, usually praising the queen who impersonated them. Judge Judy, Lady Bunny, Tamar Braxton, Carol Channing, and Nancy Grace have all had pre-taped messages aired on the show talking about how they enjoyed their impersonations. Amanda Lepore also had a pre-taped message but it was cut from the show.
- Tamar Braxton and Michelle Visage are the only celebrities to be impersonated on the show and later appear as a guest celebrities on Snatch Game.

- Season 7 is the only regular season to have two winners in Snatch Game.
- Season 8's guest celebrities, Gigi Hadid and Chanel Iman, apparently gave such poor answers to Ru's questions that he angrily stormed off set at one point to scold the producers for not preparing them better.
- Bob The Drag Queen is the first queen to have impersonated two characters in one Snatch Game, playing Uzo Aduba and Carol Channing in Season 8‘s episode. This was later followed up by Nina West in Season 11, who played Harvey Fierstein and Jo Anne Worley.
- Derrick Barry, Kenya Michaels, Trixie Mattel, Petchra, JAJA, Asia O'Hara, and Valentina are the only queens to impersonate celebrities who had already been impersonated and do worse in the challenge than the queen who originally did them.

- Out of these queens, only Kennedy Davenport, Thorgy Thor, BenDeLaCreme, Nina West, Sum Ting Wong and The Vivienne impersonated a male who is not a drag queen, though Harvey Fierstein (Nina West’s character in Season 11) is well-known for performing characters in drag on stage.
- Aja is the only queen to portray a male in both times she competed in Snatch Game.
- Kim Chi portrayed a male character, but as a gender-bent version as Kimmy Jong-un. This also technically makes her the first queen to not impersonate a real person (not counting BenDeLaCreme of Season 6, who impersonated Dame Maggie Smith as her Downton Abbey character Violet Crawley).

However Kennedy Davenport went from winning her first Snatch Game to being placed in the bottom 3 in her second.
- Out of the 26 queens who competed in Snatch Game /Gaff-In more than once, Jujubee, Detox, Gia Gunn, and Latrice Royale are the only queens to land in the bottom twice.
