How a round goes

No clock. Tap the stick to turn; you cannot reverse into your own neck. Three drops are on the board at once, and eating one makes you longer. Every snake starts along its own edge, all going the same way round, so the first crash is one somebody drove into.

The whole board speeds up as anyone eats. Hit a wall, any snake's body, or another head in the same square, and you are out.

Scoring and winning

Last snake alive wins; everyone dying on the same tick is a draw.

On your own it is classic Snake: the game ends when you crash, and your drops eaten go to the leaderboard.

Tips

  • A long snake is a wall for everyone else — including you.
  • Turn early. At speed, the square you are entering is already decided.
