Snake Game

Snake Game is a familiar grid arcade challenge with a clear first move. Guide the geometric snake to each food marker, grow your length, and keep a clean path away from the wall and your own body.

How to Play

  1. 1The first frame shows a bounded grid, a visible snake, and a food target before you press Play.
  2. 2Use a direction key, WASD, a swipe, or the direction pad to start moving.
  3. 3Collect food to grow the snake and increase your score while the speed rises gradually.
  4. 4Avoid the wall and your own body. Pause, restart, or start a new seeded run whenever you need a clean attempt.

Tips

  • Plan the next turn before the snake reaches the edge; an immediate reverse is not a legal move.
  • Classic is the balanced pace, Relaxed gives more reaction time, and Turbo reaches its upper speed sooner.
  • Use Pause when you need to inspect the board. The timer and fixed-step simulation freeze together.
  • Your best score is stored only in this browser and does not require an account or network leaderboard.

Features

  • Recognizable 20×20 Snake board with a deterministic first frame
  • Relaxed, Classic, and Turbo speed modes with the same collision rules
  • Keyboard, swipe, and visible four-direction touch controls
  • Pause/resume, restart, seeded new runs, local best score, and optional generated tones
  • Responsive square Canvas with native fullscreen and an honest immersive fallback
