About Pokisnake
Pokisnake is the classic grid-crawler with one honest complication: every apple you eat makes the problem harder, because the obstacle you are avoiding is yourself. The board never changes size. Only you do.
How to play Pokisnake
- 01Your Poki moves continuously on a grid — it never stops, only turns.
- 02Steer into apples to eat them. Each one adds a segment to your tail.
- 03Hitting a wall or any part of your own body ends the run.
- 04Fill the progress bar by eating the target number of apples.
Controls
Keyboard
- Arrow keys or W A S D to turn
Touch
- Swipe in any direction to turn — one swipe, one turn
How to win
Eat the target number of apples in a single run. The counter sits at the top of the screen and the HUD bar fills as you go.
The snake moves faster at higher levels and the apple target climbs by one per level, so the board gets more crowded at the same time as your reaction window shrinks.
| Level | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| apples | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 |
Tips for Pokisnake
- Hug the outer wall early. Leaving the middle open gives you somewhere to go when your tail gets long.
- Plan the turn after the one you are making. At speed you commit to a direction before you can see the consequence.
- The swipe control fires once per gesture and then goes inert until you lift your finger, so a long dramatic swipe turns you exactly once — flick, do not drag.
