Snake Arena drops your snake into a walled arena with up to three computer snakes, all hunting the same food. Eat to grow, and steer so that your rivals run into your body instead of the other way round — a knocked-out snake turns into a trail of food. Heads meeting head-on knock out the shorter snake. Reach the target length or be the last snake standing to clear the arena. Six arenas add pillars, hedges, a ring road and a maze, along with smarter rivals that plan their routes and avoid dead ends.
How to play Snake Arena
Goal: Reach the target length, or be the last snake left, to clear each arena.
Keyboard & mouse
- Arrow keys or WASD to turn
- P or Escape to pause
Phone & tablet
- Swipe in the direction you want to go (or drag to steer)
Rules
- Eating food makes you one segment longer.
- Running into a wall, an obstacle or any snake’s body knocks you out.
- When two heads meet, the shorter snake is knocked out (both, if they are the same length).
- Knocked-out snakes leave a trail of food behind.
- If a rival reaches the target length first, you lose the round.
Tips and strategy
- Circle around a rival’s head to cut it off against a wall.
- Avoid tight dead ends — you need room for your whole body.
- Stay longer than your rivals before going head-to-head.
