Snake Escape

Untangle the knot, one snake at a time.

Tap a snake and it slides straight off the board — but only if nothing is in its way. Everything is visible from the start. The puzzle is working out the order.

Free. No account needed. Plays offline.

Six snakes. Find one with a clear path.

The whole rule

There is only one, and it never changes. Every board in the game is that rule applied harder.

Step one

Tap a snake

It sets off in the direction its head is already facing. You never steer it.

Step two

The path has to be clear

Straight ahead, all the way to the edge. Anything in the corridor stops it, and that costs a heart.

Step three

It leaves, and the board opens

The space it held is free now. A snake that was trapped a moment ago has a way out.

Three ways to play

A new board every day

One puzzle a day, the same one for every player, generated from the date itself. Solve it to keep your run going. Miss a day and the run starts over.

Two hundred levels

From a ten-by-ten opener to a forty-by-forty field with seventy snakes on it. Every board is built so it can always be cleared — none of them are luck.

Stars and standings

Made small on purpose

Nineteen megabytes. No sign-up, no energy timer, no waiting. Boards are generated on your device from a number, so the whole campaign works with the plane in flight mode.
