💡 Tips & tricks
- You can queue two turns in a row — handy for tight U-turns next to your own tail.
- Edges without bricks wrap around: leave on one side and you come back on the other.
- Stepping on a portal pops your head out of its twin with the same color and shape, still moving the same way.
- Grab the golden star-fruit before it fades — it slows everything down for a few seconds.

Snake Trails FAQ
What happens when I crash?
You lose one of three lives and the snake restarts at its start point, keeping its length. After the third crash you can try again or watch an optional ad for one more life.
How are stars awarded?
Three stars if you finish with all three lives, two stars with two lives, and one star otherwise.
Is every level possible?
Yes. Every level was played start to finish by an automatic checker using the real game rules before release.
