How classic mode works

You control a snake on a 24×24 grid. Food appears at random; every bite grows you by one segment and scores 10 points. Hitting a wall or any part of your own body ends the run. There are no obstacles and no second player — it is just you, the board, and your greed.

Tips for a higher score

Stay near the middle early on so turns stay cheap.
Spiral along the walls only once you are long enough to plan it.
The game gets 5 ms faster per tick every 10 points (capped at 60 ms) — expect the pace to bite around score 100.
On mobile, short swipes anywhere on the board register; there is also an on-screen d-pad.

Score 50 to unlock the Bronze skin, then keep climbing toward Neon at 500. When you can consistently clear 150+, try Maze mode — or bring a friend for 2-player versus.
