The Snake playbook
Use a short break to learn the rhythm of Snake. Keep collecting apples. Hitting a wall or your body ends the round; filling the entire board wins. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Read the objective before making your first input. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
Build familiarity through play
Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Keep the objective visible.
What you are aiming for
Keep collecting apples. Hitting a wall or your body ends the round; filling the entire board wins. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
How a round unfolds
- Press Play to start the movement.
- Turn with arrow keys, swipes or the on-screen direction buttons.
- Each apple adds ten points and makes the snake longer.
- Pause when needed or start a new round.
Choosing and moving on screen
Keyboard arrows, swipe gestures or the four direction buttons. Play / pause controls the movement. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Check any mode label before starting.
One way to understand the rules
When moving right, you may turn up or down, but cannot turn immediately left into your own neck. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Keep the controls nearby.
Notice this detail
The snake continues moving between inputs. Plan a route with space to turn. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
