About Snake
A friendly purple snake slides across a grassy board, looking for apples. Each apple makes it one piece longer, and a golden apple that pops up now and then is worth three. Bumping into a wall or its own body only makes the snake dizzy for a moment, and it keeps all its length.
How to play
- Swipe anywhere to turn the snake up, down, left or right.
- Tap the arrow buttons to steer toward the next apple.
- On a computer, steer with the arrow keys or WASD.
