Snake

Snake is a reflex game that rewards control, timing, and planning ahead. In Snake, you control a line that grows in length as it consumes food items scattered across the screen. The primary goal is to eat as much as possible to increase your score without colliding with the screen boundaries or the snake's own body. As the snake grows longer, the game becomes progressively more difficult as navigating the space becomes restricted. Use the arrow keys or swipe gestures to change the snake's direction and keep it moving. Tap play to open the full game. Once you start, the interactive board and controls will appear immediately below.
