This game must be familiar to many of you. Snake has been a PC game since 1978 but still shows up today, either on your mobile phone or as a flash game. The version of snake you find in the clashflash competition is a little different though..
In this game you play the old and familiar snake, displayed near the 1 in the image below. You play this game by moving the snake around and letting it consume the yellow foodblocks as displayed near the 2. Eating a foodblock makes your snake grow. All still basic snake right? Now for the additionals. You’re probably familiar with walls in a snake game. This one has them too. The brown square boxes, also displayed near the 2 represent wallblocks that you should not hit. If you do, your snake will get a concussion and will not be able to continue eating. Now there is a way to get rid of those annoying walls in this game. Near the 4 you will notice a fireball special. This fireball special is gained by eating the red/orange block displayed above the 3. You can fire this fireball at a wall, which will result in the destruction of the first wallblock it hits. Oh and don’t bite yourself in your tail!

Now there are a few more things you need to know. Once your snake reaches a specific length, it will drop its tail. The snake tail will transform into a wall. Better not hit it, because that will be the end of your game. There’s one small difference between a snake tail wall and an ordinary wall. The snake tail wall will slowly disappear as you proceed in your game. The disappearing blocks will transform in bonus blocks. Grab them before they disappear and you will be rewarded greatly.
Additional specials include a white "+" block (also displayed at the 3. Capture this block before it disappears and the amount of foodblocks on the screen will increase. Finally, sometimes a heart will show itself on the playfield. Eating it will reduce the length of the snake.
What are the controls?
The controls are limited to moving your snake and using a special. Use the Arrow Keys to move your snake around. Press Space to use a special. You can only carry one special at a time so be sure to use it before you pickup another special.
