How it works
Three steps and your whole team is in.
-
Open a room
Pick how long the round lasts (2, 3 or 5 minutes), then share the link or the QR code with your team.
-
Steer your snake
Use the arrow keys or WASD, or swipe on a phone. The edges wrap around, so there are no walls to hit.
-
Score before time is up
Apples and bananas are 1 point and cherries are 3. You also earn 3 when someone crashes into you. Most points when the clock stops wins.

Why it works for a work break
Almost everyone has steered a snake at some point, so there is nothing to explain. The round starts and people are already laughing at the first pile-up.
The clock keeps it honest: when it reaches zero the round is over, so a break stays a break. And because a crash only costs you two seconds, nobody is left watching from the sidelines.
It also suits remote and hybrid teams: paste the room link in your chat or show the QR code on a shared screen, and each person joins from their own device.
