A snake made of numbers
Snake X 2048 is a calm puzzle game where the snake is made of numbers. Swipe to move one cell: nothing moves until you do. Step on a number to eat it, and it becomes your new head. Eat your head's own number and the two merge, and the merges run on down the body: a snake of 16-8-4-2 that eats a 2 collapses into a single 32.
Keep the small numbers at the head
- Eat a number bigger than your head and your head is buried under it for good, so plan your path.
- Walls and your own body only block the way: a slip of the thumb never ends a run.
- See where the next number lands, a move ahead.
- Leave a number lying too long and it ripens: it doubles.
Five ways to play
- Endless: reach 2048 and beyond as the board gets busier.
- Daily challenge: 100 moves on a board of a new shape every day, the same for everyone, with a streak for the days in a row.
- Rush: the snake moves by itself, faster as it grows, and you steer.
- Levels: 200 handmade puzzles in ten worlds, with rocks, shaped boards, long snakes, chains and tight move limits, three stars each.
- Today's puzzle: a new one every day, easy on Monday to hardest on Sunday.
Help when you need it
- Three short lessons teach the game in a minute.
- UNDO, SHED and BOMB: one of each per run.
- Move hints show what merges with your head and what would bury it.
- Stuck on a level? HINT shows your next moves on the board, and a level you've failed three times in a row can be skipped.
Win and collect
- Twelve achievements, six of them winning a snake skin: Emerald, Python, Coral, Gold, Neon and Midnight.
- Leaderboards for Endless, the daily challenge and Rush, and your progress saved to the cloud, with Google Play Games.
Play your way
- One thumb, in portrait, and no clock except in Rush.
- Hold and drag to keep moving, and left-handed and one-handed layouts.
- Larger text, high contrast, reduced flashing and reduced effects.
- Music and sound effects, each with its own volume.
- Plays offline, and no account needed.
Free, with ads only if you want them
- No banners and nothing between runs.
- Watch an ad only when you choose to: one more power-up or a second chance in Endless and Rush, a hint or a skip in the levels.
Ways to play
Five ways into the same snake, each with a tip.
ENDLESS
Reach 2048 and beyond. The board gets busier as your numbers grow, and a number left lying too long ripens: it doubles.
Keep the small numbers at the head and the big ones toward the tail.
DAILY
100 moves on a board of a new shape every day (a ring, a diamond, an hourglass, pillars...), the same for everyone, with a streak for days in a row.
The dashed ring is where the next number lands: plan a move ahead.
RUSH
The snake moves by itself, faster as it grows: you steer.
Walls and your body only block the way, so a turn too early costs nothing.
LEVELS
200 handmade puzzles in ten worlds: make a number, eat every number, end as one segment, or make a chain, around rocks and on shaped boards. Three stars for the fewest moves.
Stuck? HINT shows the next moves, and a level failed three times can be skipped.
