Snake Fast
Read full descriptionHide full description
Classic Snake, rebuilt for touch Grow your snake, clear every piece of food on the board, and dodge collisions—unless you change the rules. Snake brings the arcade legend to iPhone, iPad, and Mac with a crisp retro-inspired look, responsive controls, and rich options so every run feels like your game. HOW IT PLAYS You move on a grid: eat, get longer, and keep going until you slip up. Walls can be deadly—or you can enable wrap-around and teleport through the edges for a different rhythm. Optional brick obstacles appear as you eat; you choose how many apples pass before new bricks spawn, so you can keep things gentle or turn the board into a maze. TUNE THE CHALLENGE - Snake speed — from slow, thoughtful rounds to fast sessions that test reflexes. - Board density — pick how tight the grid feels, from large, easy-to-read cells to dense layouts that demand precision. - Accelerate on growth — when you want extra pressure, let the pace climb as your score does. - Bricks on/off — classic pure Snake, or static blocks that raise the stakes. SOUND, MUSIC, AND FEEL Toggle sound effects and vibration for quiet rooms or late-night play. Background music includes bundled Neon Arcade and Pixel Garden loops—or switch music off entirely. ENGLISH OR RUSSIAN Switch the entire interface between English and Russian in Settings—great for learning, family, or personal preference. PLAY WITHOUT FRICTION No sign-in and no account. Core gameplay works offline. Your settings and best scores stay on your device; this version is not built to upload scores or gameplay to our servers. Whether you want a calm break or a white-knuckle chase, Snake keeps the rules simple and the “one more try” feeling strong. Download and see how long you can last.

Every backgammon app says its dice are random. This one lets you check. Before the first roll of a match, Backgammon Trainer shows you a hash of the secret that every roll in that match comes from. The whole sequence is generated once, from that secret, and it is never regenerated, so the app physically cannot look at the board and choose a die. When the match ends you get the secret. Re-hash it and it must match what you were shown. Replay it and it must produce exactly the rolls you got. You can do both inside the app in one tap, or export the proof and check it with your own tools. Then it tells you what you actually did wrong. THE COACH Finish a match and every decision is reviewed. You get your performance rating, the number serious players use, plus your error rate split between checker play and cube handling. The report leads with your three worst decisions: the roll, the move you made, the move that was better, and exactly how much equity the difference cost you, with a plain sentence explaining why. Cube decisions get their own section, because that is where most rating quietly disappears. Take points and cash points are computed from the Kazaross-XG2 match equity table at your actual score, not from a rule of thumb, so the advice at 2-away 4-away is the advice for 2-away 4-away. ONE PRICE Playing is free and unlimited. Free also includes the fairness proof, the dice ledger and two full coach reports a day. Pro is a single purchase that opens the expert opponent, the live tutor, unlimited reports, the cube explainer, full history, blunder drills and every variant. One payment. It does not renew, and there is no second unlock to buy later. FIVE WAYS TO PLAY Backgammon with the doubling cube, Crawford and Jacoby. Nackgammon, where every game is a priming battle. Hypergammon, three checkers a side. Tavla, played as it is in Turkey, without the cube and with mars counting double. Plakoto from the Greek tavli set, where you pin checkers instead of hitting them. All five are complete rules implementations, not relabelled boards. BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY PLAY Legal moves only, with the maximum dice rule, the forced higher die and oversized bear-off dice all handled correctly. Undo before you commit. Home board on either side. Point numbers and pip counts on or off. Larger checkers when you want them. Match play to any length up to 15 points. Everything works offline, with no account and no sign-up. Match export in the plain text format desktop analysis tools already read, so nothing you play here is trapped in here. IN YOUR LANGUAGE Turkish, Greek, Arabic, Hebrew, Russian, Ukrainian, Romanian, Croatian, German, Dutch, Danish, Swedish, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese and English. Tavla, tavli, nardi and shesh besh are the same game, and this app speaks all of them. PRIVACY Nothing leaves your device. No account, no analytics, no tracking, no network calls. Your matches, your ratings and your dice history are stored on your phone and nowhere else. PRO UNLOCK Pro is a one time in-app purchase for your Apple Account. It is not a subscription, it does not auto renew, and there is nothing to cancel. Restore Purchases is in Settings.
