How to play Snake
- Move: the snake never stops, so plan your turns ahead.
- Eat: each piece of food adds 10 points and makes the snake longer.
- Survive: hitting your own body ends the game. With walls on, so does hitting the edge.
- Tip: keep to the edges and leave yourself open space as the snake gets long.
Frequently asked questions
How do you play Snake?
Steer the snake with the arrow keys, WASD, a swipe or the on-screen buttons. Eat the food to grow and score points. The game ends if the snake runs into itself, or into a wall when walls are on.
Can I play Snake on my phone?
Yes. Swipe on the board or use the arrow buttons under it. The board fits any screen size.
What does "Walls off" do?
With walls off, the snake goes through the edge and comes back on the other side, so only your own tail can stop you.
How do I pause?
Press Space or P on a keyboard, or tap the Pause button. The game also pauses if you switch to another tab.
