About Snake
A pixel art take on the arcade classic, built around four run modes and food that will not wait for you.
Classic is the pure version. Speed starts quicker and pushes to a lower floor. Walls Off wraps the board at every edge, so the only thing that can kill you is your own tail. Daily deals the same food sequence to every player on a given date, which makes it the fairest run to compare.
Apples sit on the board until you take them. Golden coins and neon shards do not — each one lands with a countdown bar and rots away if you leave it too long. Every premium spawn is the same question: cut across your own body and bank the points, or let it go and stay alive.
The backdrop shifts as you grow, from neon city rooftops to a mossy forest floor, deep space and a warm sunset horizon. Every tile you occupy is a tile you can't cross again, so smart routing beats reflexes once your tail starts filling the board.

Does the Snake game work on mobile?
It does. On phones and tablets you swipe in any direction to steer, while on desktop you use the Arrow keys or WASD. The pixel art board scales to your screen.
What are the four game modes?
Classic is the standard run. Speed starts faster and keeps accelerating to a lower floor. Walls Off wraps the board at every edge, so only your own tail can end the run. Daily gives every player the same food sequence for that date, so scores are directly comparable.
Why did the golden coin disappear before I reached it?
Golden coins and neon shards are on a timer. Each one spawns with a countdown bar underneath and rots away when it empties, then a fresh food takes its place. Apples never expire, so the board always has something safe to eat.
Any tips to get a high score?
Judge the timed food by distance, not by value — a neon shard on the far side of the board usually isn't worth the detour. Once your tail grows, routing matters more than speed: plan two moves ahead and hug the edges so you don't box yourself in.
