Snake
Guide your snake across the grid, eat food to grow, and avoid hitting walls or your own tail. Every meal makes you faster and longer.
Play NowAbout
The timeless arcade classic, reimagined for your browser. Guide your snake across a clean grid, collecting food to grow longer with each bite. But be careful — every piece of food speeds you up, making the game progressively more challenging.
Your reflexes and forward planning are your best assets. As the snake grows, navigating the shrinking free space becomes an intense test of spatial awareness. One wrong turn into a wall or your own tail and the game is over.

Difficulty
The snake speeds up with every piece of food you eat. Starting at a comfortable pace, the interval between moves steadily decreases. The longer you survive, the faster your reflexes need to be.
Scoring
Each piece of food is worth 100 points. A time bonus is added based on how quickly you play — faster games earn higher bonuses. Your personal best and last five scores are stored locally in your browser.
