Snake
Snake is a browser-based game in the 2D games genre that focuses on controlling a growing snake as it moves across a confined playfield. The player guides the snake to collect items that appear on the screen, causing the snake to increase in length with each successful pickup. Movement requires constant attention, since the snake must avoid colliding with the walls or its own body. As the snake grows longer, available space shrinks and movement decisions become more demanding. The main objective centers on surviving as long as possible while achieving a high score through efficient item collection. The game progresses naturally through increased difficulty rather than structured levels, pushing the player to improve reaction speed and spatial planning. Snake maintains engagement through its simple rules and escalating challenge, encouraging repeated attempts to refine control, anticipate movement paths, and manage risk as the snake occupies more of the board over time.

How to Play
The game begins with a short snake positioned on the screen and a single item placed in an open area. You control the snake’s direction, guiding it toward the item while the snake continues moving without stopping. Each time the snake collects an item, its length increases, making future movement more complex. You must plan turns carefully to avoid running into walls or crossing the snake’s own body. A single collision ends the session immediately. There are no checkpoints, so every run depends entirely on your decisions and timing. Progress comes from lasting longer and managing space more efficiently as the snake grows. Players often restart multiple times, learning how to create safe movement patterns and predicting where open paths will remain available as the board becomes more crowded.
