An Unforgettable Classic

Snake has been hooking players since the 1970s, and if you grew up with a Nokia phone in the late 90s, you already know exactly why. There's something almost hypnotic about guiding that little line around the screen. The concept couldn't be simpler, yet you'll find yourself saying "just one more go" for way longer than you planned.

How to Play

• Guide your snake around the board to eat the food (the red dot). Every bite makes it longer — which is both the reward and the problem.
• Use the arrow keys (Up, Down, Left, Right) to steer. That's it. No complicated controls to learn.
• Hit a wall or run into your own tail and it's game over. That second one gets you more often than you'd expect, especially once the snake gets long.
• Your score climbs with every piece of food you eat. The longer the snake, the higher the score — but also the harder it gets to move without crashing into yourself.

Simple Fun, Serious Challenge

The rules take about ten seconds to learn, but mastering Snake is a different story. Once your snake fills half the board, every turn becomes a decision — do you loop back around or are you cutting off your own escape route? It's oddly satisfying when you thread the needle perfectly. Challenge yourself to beat your high score and see how long you can survive.
