Snake

A snake of calculator keys eats blue digits. Each digit adds to the sum on the green LCD.

This is classic Snake in a calculator skin, not an arithmetic lesson. Also try Tetris and Minesweeper.

SUM 0 BEST 0

Result

Start a round. The LCD will keep the sum of eaten digits.

How to play

  1. Pick a board and a tempo, then Start. The snake of keys starts moving.
  2. Steer with arrows, WASD or a swipe. Eat the blue digit keys.
  3. Each digit adds to the LCD sum. A wall or yourself is an error.

Formula

score = sum of eaten digits (1–9). Tempo 1–6 sets the starting gap. Each digit shortens it by 4 ms, not below that tempo’s floor.

Frequently asked questions

How is the score counted?

Each eaten key carries a digit from 1 to 9. The score is the sum of those digits. The best sum stays in the browser.

How do I steer?

On a computer use arrows or WASD. On a phone swipe the board or use the pad below.

Is this the usual Snake?

The rules are classic: a wall or your own body ends the round. Four grids: 10×10, 16×16, 24×16 and 24×24. Tempo 1 to 6 shortens the gap between moves.

Does the score leave the browser?

No. The round is local. The record sits in localStorage.
