Snake

Eat the food, grow longer, and don't hit the walls or yourself.

Arrow keys, WASD, swipe, or use the pad to steer.

How to play Snake

Guide the snake around the board with the arrow keys, WASD, a swipe, or the on-screen pad. Every piece of food the snake eats makes it one segment longer and adds to your score. The game ends if the snake runs into a wall or into its own tail, so the longer you get, the trickier it becomes.

Tips for a high score

  • Use the edges. Travel along the walls to keep the middle open.
  • Plan your turns. Always leave yourself an exit before heading for food.
  • Stay calm at speed. The snake speeds up as it grows — small, deliberate turns beat panic.
  • Coil neatly. Fold the tail in tidy rows so you don't trap your own head.
