How to play
A 31 by 21 board. Eat to grow, hit the level goal, and never run into your own body.
Controls
- Arrows or WASD turn the snake. A 180° turn is rejected — it would kill you instantly.
- On phones: swipe on the screen or use the d-pad at the bottom.
- Space or P pauses. R restarts the level.

Blocks and walls
- A gray block kills on contact. Going around it is the only way.
- A cracked block breaks with the hammer or shield, and pays points and a coin.
- On some levels the wall kills; on others the snake passes through and comes out the far side.
Points, stars and coins
- Eating in a chain multiplies points up to ×5. The window is 3s between foods.
- Three stars per level: hit the goal, beat the target score, and finish without dying.
- Each new star pays 10 🪙, and there are coins on the board, on high combos and on broken blocks.
