Modes

Every day has one mode, picked from the date, the same for everyone. Practice plays yesterday's arena with today's mode, so you can try it before your ranked run.

• Classic

  The original daily run: eat as much food as you can in 45 seconds while the snake speeds up.

• Sprint

  Twenty seconds, fast from the very first move: eat the most food before the clock runs out.

• Marathon

  Ninety seconds with a slow start and a long ramp: the most food wins, if your long snake survives.

• Gold Rush

  Not all food is equal: collect gems worth 1 to 5 points and score the most points in 45 seconds.

• Harvest

  A race against the clock: eat 12 food as fast as you can, and your finishing time is the score.

• Survival

  No food. Walls appear, your snake keeps growing, and the longest time alive wins.

• Blackout

  Classic rules, but the lights go out every few seconds: remember where things are and keep eating.

• Rotate

  Classic rules, but the whole arena turns a quarter turn every 15 seconds. Up stays up on your screen.
