Snake Games

Before 3D graphics and open worlds, there was the Nokia snake: five green pixels, one apple, and the absolute inability to put it down. The mechanic couldn't have been simpler: eat, grow, don't crash. Decades later, that loop is just as effective: faithful retro clones of the original, .io arenas with hundreds of rivals, games where the snake has its own abilities. Some genres age, but this one has become timeless.
