Making your first moves in Snake
Open Snake, check the instructions and begin a round. Keep collecting apples. Hitting a wall or your body ends the round; filling the entire board wins. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Identify the playing area and the controls you need. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.
Try a more deliberate round
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Make the next step deliberately.
Your goal
Keep collecting apples. Hitting a wall or your body ends the round; filling the entire board wins. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Keep the controls in easy reach.
Follow these playing steps
- Press Play to start the movement.
- Turn with arrow keys, swipes or the on-screen direction buttons.
- Each apple adds ten points and makes the snake longer.

How to interact with the game
Keyboard arrows, swipe gestures or the four direction buttons. Play / pause controls the movement. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Look at the feedback after the action.
Follow the example
When moving right, you may turn up or down, but cannot turn immediately left into your own neck. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Verify the rule before continuing.
An important reminder
The snake continues moving between inputs. Plan a route with space to turn. A different version of the game may use a different rule. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
