About Snake

The classic, smoothed out. Swipe or use the arrows to steer, eat to grow, grab the golden apple before it fades, and weave through the stones that appear every level as the pace picks up.

Snake is the classic: steer a snake around the board, eat to grow longer, and do not hit the wall or your own tail. This version is smooth on a phone, adds a golden apple that fades if you are slow, and scatters stones that appear each level as the pace picks up.

Tips

  • Move in wide, tidy loops rather than darting straight at the food. A neat snake has room to turn.
  • Keep to the edges when your snake gets long, and leave the middle open for turning.
  • Plan your way out before you go for food in a corner.
  • Go for the golden apple only when the path is clear. It is worth more, but not a crash.
  • Watch the stones when a new level starts, and plan your route around them.
