Frequently Asked Questions
Can you ever "win" Snake?
Technically, yes! A perfect game of Snake occurs when your snake grows so large that it completely fills every single square on the board, leaving no room for new food to spawn. However, at our maximum speed, this is incredibly difficult!
Why does the snake keep hitting its own tail?
As your score increases, you take up more space on the grid. You have to plan your routes carefully. Avoid moving in tight zig-zags when you get long, as it traps you in corners.
