Introduction

Snake is a free browser action game from amplifygames built around a simple loop: guide a growing snake around the board, collect apples, and stay alive. Each apple makes the snake longer and a little quicker, so the open space at the start gradually becomes tighter. The run ends if the snake hits a wall or crosses its own body, keeping the challenge focused on movement and timing. The game offers several ways to steer. On a keyboard, use the arrow keys or W A S D, and press P or Space to pause. With a mouse, drag across the board to change direction. On a touch screen, swipe or use the on-screen pad. Its tags describe a 2D, arcade-style, casual, retro, single-player game. Snake is also one of eight AI-written starter templates on Amplify. A Remix option copies it into your own account, where the rules, look, and name can be changed by chatting. That gives players a straightforward arcade challenge and gives curious creators a starting point to adapt. The goal stays clear: eat, grow, and avoid the walls and your own trail.
