## What is Snake 97?

Snake 97 brings back the classic snake game from the old phone days, with the same green pixel screen and the same simple rules, tidied up for today's iPhones.

Guide the snake, eat the blocks and grow longer. Every block makes you a little faster. Hit a wall or your own tail and it's game over.

FEATURES
• The retro green pixel look, with no clutter on screen
• The snake runs right up to the edge of the board
• Play with swipes or the big on-screen arrow buttons, whichever you like
• 9 speed levels that get faster with every block you eat
• Several mazes, from an open field to walled boxes
• Bonus bugs that appear for a short time for extra points
• Top scores on Game Center, so you can see how you rank against other players
• Pauses by itself when you leave the app
• Works in portrait and landscape

Snake 97 is free with ads. A one-time Remove Ads purchase turns them off for good, and you can restore it on any of your devices.
