Spacial Snake is a browser-based classics game that runs instantly, with nothing to install. Think snake — that is the shape of it. You can jump in for two minutes or lose an hour to it; either works.
About Spacial Snake
Use the directionals to move the snake through space. Eat as many apples as you can. But you must prevent the snake from starving... and not even eat your own body!
How to play Spacial Snake
Press play and the first round teaches you the rest. Keep a hand on the arrow keys / WASD; everything else is listed in the controls table. Portrait layout: hold the phone the way you normally do, or play it centred in the page on desktop. Expect the first attempt to be a write-off; that is normal here.
