About Snake
Snake is one of the oldest arcade ideas still worth playing: you steer a growing line around a small board, collecting food without touching the walls or your own tail. Every dot you eat makes the snake longer and adds to your score, so the game gets harder the better you do.
It is a good quick break because a round can last under a minute, yet there is always a higher score to chase. On a phone you can use the on-screen buttons; on a computer the arrow keys feel the most precise.
Tips to play better
- Plan your turns two or three steps ahead instead of reacting at the last moment.
- Keep the snake near the middle of the board early on so you have room to turn.
- When the snake gets long, move in neat rows like a lawn mower to avoid trapping yourself.
