Snake, backwards: start long, eat minus pellets to shrink to one, and dodge the walls your own shed tail leaves behind.
Everyone knows Snake. This one runs the other way.
You start long, and every pellet you eat takes segments off your tail. Get all the way down to a length of one to clear the level.
The catch: nothing you shed goes away. Each lost segment stays where it fell and turns to stone, so the board slowly fills with walls you built yourself. Shed in the open and you're fine. Shed in a narrow gap and you may have just shut the door behind you.
Three kinds of pellet:
- Pink takes off one segment.
- Orange takes off two.
- Gold takes off three, but only stays for a few seconds.
Every level starts longer and moves a little faster. Clear it quickly for a speed bonus, and see how far you can get before you box yourself in.
