Snake Game

How to play

• Press Start Game. The snake moves on a grid; it only starts crawling after you pick a direction.
• Steer with Arrow keys, the on-screen direction pad, or swipe on the board (short drag in the direction you want).
• Eat the food dot to grow and add 10 to your score. You cannot reverse into yourself in one move.
• Hitting a wall or your own tail ends the run. Press Start Game again for a new round.

Game description

Snake is a timeless arcade game that still feels exciting on a compact grid. You steer a growing chain of linked segments across the board, collecting bright food dots whenever they appear. Each successful bite adds another piece to your tail and increases your score by ten points, which sounds easy until your own trail begins blocking the routes you need. The outer walls are solid boundaries—touch one and the run stops immediately. Collide with any segment of your body and the same rule applies, turning a simple chase into a lesson in planning ahead. You cannot snap into a full one-eighty in a single move, so every turn asks you to think about where the tail will be after your next bite. As the snake lengthens, open squares shrink and patience replaces raw speed. Food appears at random, which keeps each run feeling fresh.

Press Start Game and pick a direction before the snake begins moving. Steer with arrow keys on a keyboard, use the on-screen direction pad on touch devices, or swipe across the board for quick turns. The layout keeps controls visible so you can read the grid instead of hunting inputs mid-run. Score climbs with every meal, and each new segment makes the board feel tighter until one wrong corner ends the attempt. When a crash arrives, press Start again and rebuild momentum from zero. Short sessions fit a break between tasks. There is nothing to install: open the page whenever you want a classic snake challenge in your browser. No downloads, accounts, or waiting required.
