sn - 11th in "focus" (aa, uu, ff, au, rr, ao, rl, sp, th, ki, ci, sn, lo, ba, ov, sh, fi, do, ru & ti) sn is a truly modern snake. Touch and drag to move the dot, connect it to as many other dots as you can without colliding with your tail. The more in your tail, the harder it gets - but the dynamic doesn't change, simple. You can also top the leaderboard and compete for the best score / longest tail. Get stuck into the addiction of sn right now, a great new addition to your collection of focused General Adaptive apps. Thanks for all your support, I hope you're enjoying the "focus" series thus far. Handmade in Australia, General Adaptive

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: sn at none against Circle's shown. sn also leads on review sentiment (59% vs 43%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). Circle's advantage is ratings volume (5.5K vs 509). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Circle sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and sn sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.3 for Circle against 4.3 for sn. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Circle has 5.5K ratings behind it against 509, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 43% of Circle's written reviews are positive against 59% of sn's.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Circle ships an update every 2 months, sn every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
