How it works

The snake moves forward continuously in the direction you choose; each apple eaten makes its tail grow by one segment and scores 10 points. The game ends as soon as the snake's head touches an edge of the grid or one of its own segments — so the goal is to plan your turns so you never trap yourself.

Can I turn around instantly?

No, just like in the original Snake, it's impossible to reverse direction directly (for example going right and then immediately left), because the snake's head would then crash into its own second segment. This constraint is applied automatically: a key opposite to the current direction is simply ignored.

Does speed affect the score?

No, each apple always scores 10 points regardless of the chosen speed; speed only changes the difficulty and the pace of the game, not the scoring. Choose “Fast” for a real reflex challenge.

The game is played entirely locally: no game data is sent to a server.
