Balls Trump Bricks

Ok, so in Snake vs. Block you are always doing one of two things: picking up balls or losing balls. I would say above everything else, prioritize picking up balls. In various places on the screen, you’ll see groups of balls you can pick up by crashing into them. Grab as many of these as you can. There will always be way more bricks to run into than balls to pick up, so make picking up balls your number one mission.

Go For The Lowest Brick Numbers

Inevitably you will have to run into some bricks as they are all over the place and this is the only way to score points. If you find yourself at a point where you have to hit a block, swerve towards the lowest numbered block you can find. This will preserve the life of your snake.

Don’t Be Afraid To Swerve A Lot

If you find you’ve swerved into a block with a much larger number than your snake has, don’t worry. All is not lost. You can actually still swerve even if you crashed into a big brick. Just look for a place where there’s a lower valued cube and swerve in that direction. You’ll still the get points spent on the larger block and you’ll have a better chance of saving your life.

Avoid Walled Spaces

When you are swerving for your life, it can be difficult to anticipate the barrier that might be ahead, but as much as possible, avoid going into spaces that have white walls on both sides. If you end up in one of those and the brick value is too high, it’s game over, dude.

Avoid Straddling Two Blocks At Once

Occasionally, you’ll be aiming for a particular block, but find your snake straddles two. Try to swerve closer to your intended brick right away, otherwise you’re spending twice as many balls in one go and you’re life can slip away before you know it.
