Snake

The classic snake game: eat to grow and survive as long as you can without hitting the walls or yourself. The bigger you get, the harder it is.

How to play

Change the snake's direction with the arrow keys or the buttons. Each piece of food is worth one point and makes the snake longer. Hitting a wall or your own body ends the game.

Rules and tips

Illustration of the Snake game
  1. The snake moves on its own in its current direction. Use the arrow keys or the buttons to turn.
  2. Each piece of food (the red dot) is worth one point and makes the snake one square longer.
  3. The game ends if the head hits a wall or the snake's own body.
  4. You can't turn 180° in one move: the snake can't double back into itself.

Tips to play better

  • Don't box yourself in: always leave an exit when you turn.
  • Once the snake is long, hug the edges and make wide turns.
  • Start on Medium speed and move up to Fast once you've found your rhythm.

Controls by input type

  • Mouse / trackpad: click the arrow buttons to change direction.
  • Touch (phone/tablet): tap the arrow buttons to change direction.
  • Keyboard: the arrow keys (or W A S D) change direction; a text notice reports when the game ends and your score.
