How do I play?
Pick a maze and a speed level from 1 to 9 on the Play screen and tap Start. Swipe up, down, left or right to turn the snake; it keeps moving on its own. If you prefer tapping, turn on D-pad buttons in Settings. Hitting a wall or your own tail ends the run.

How does scoring work, and what is the blinking dot?
Each dot adds one segment and scores points equal to your speed level. Every fifth dot brings a blinking bonus dot that disappears after a short time; it is worth five times the level in points and does not make the snake longer.

How do I unlock the Tunnels maze?
Score 15 points or more in a single run in the Box maze, on any level. Tunnels then opens on the Play screen. In the Open maze the edges wrap around instead of being walls.

How do I reset my records?
Open Settings and press and hold "Hold to erase records" until the bar fills. This erases high scores, best lengths, games played and the Tunnels unlock. Your settings are kept. Releasing early cancels.
