About Snake Game
Snake is a fast-paced arcade game where you guide a snake around the board to collect items and build your score. As you progress through levels, the snake moves faster, making quick decisions and smart routes more important. Different items have different effects — some help you grow, while others can shrink or slow you down. It’s easy to pick up for most ages, but staying alive at higher speeds is the real challenge.
How to Play
- Goal: Collect items to score points and survive as long as possible.
- Move the snake: Use your keyboard to steer the snake around the board.
- Items you can eat:
- Apple: The snake grows.
- Mushroom: The snake shrinks.
- Snowflake: The snake slows down (helpful when the game gets fast).
- Levels & speed: Each new level makes the snake move faster, increasing difficulty.
- Pause: You can pause the game anytime if you need a break.
- Game over: The round ends if you crash (for example, into the boundary or your own body).
Frequently Asked Questions
How to change the snake’s direction?
Use the arrow keys (or W/A/S/D) to change direction while the snake is moving.
What does each item do?
Apple makes the snake longer. Mushroom makes the snake shorter. Snowflake slows the snake down (temporarily)
How do levels work in this game?
As you advance, the game moves to the next level and the snake moves faster, so you’ll need quicker reactions and cleaner routes.
What’s the best way to survive at higher speeds?
Avoid tight corners, keep space to turn, and plan your route so you don’t trap yourself. Save snowflakes for moments when the speed feels hard to control.
What item should I prioritize: apple, mushroom, or snowflake?
It depends on the situation: apples increase length (more risk, often more progress), mushrooms reduce length (safer movement), and snowflakes help most when the speed feels hard to handle.
