This game is based on the Android code sample "Snake", but goes way beyond it - hence it's not "Snake 2" but "Snake 11". In particular:
- Choose one of 5 different speed levels
- Choose one of 5 different field sizes
- It has a progression of 12 increasingly difficult to navigate mazes
- After each apple that is eaten, the snake gets either longer or faster, where faster snakes score higher than longer snakes
- A permanent list of the top 10 high scores is kept
- Various sound effects are used (this can be turned off)
- The current score is displayed during the game (this too can be turned off)
The snake is manoeuvered by turning its head left or right; this can be done by tapping on the left or right side of the display, or -if a physical keyboard is present- through the Left/Right keys. The Up key (or a tap anywhere on the playing field) starts the game (and each higher level subsequently). A running game can be paused using the Back key, and that key will also reset an already paused game.
The problems with the earlier versions are now fixed, and a hardware keyboard is no longer required to play this game (although it's easier than using the touchscreen).
Snake 11 contains no ads, and requires no permissions.
