About Snake

Guide the snake around the board and eat every apple you can. Each apple makes you longer and a little faster. Now and then a golden star appears for a few seconds: grab it for a big bonus. Hit a wall or your own tail and the run is over. Pick Chill, Classic or Turbo speed (faster speeds score more) and climb the leaderboard.

  • Smooth, neon-style Snake with a speed-up as you grow
  • Three speeds: Chill, Classic and Turbo
  • Golden bonus stars that only stay for a few seconds
  • Swipe controls and arrow buttons on phones
  • An online leaderboard shared by everyone on The Gamepire
