About Google Maps Snake
Every now and then you stumble across a little gem tucked away in your everyday apps, and Google Maps Snake is exactly that kind of surprise. One day, you open up your map to find a friendly cartoon snake coiled around city streets, waiting for you to guide it on a tasty tour of urban landmarks. It’s like stepping into a digital arcade where your playground happens to be Cairo’s winding alleys, Tokyo’s neon-lit blocks or San Francisco’s rolling hills.
Playing is laughably simple: pick your favorite city, hit “Start,” and watch your snake-chariot slither along the roads, gobbling up tiny sandwiches, sushi rolls or pizza slices as you go. With each snack you grab, your train of wagons stretches a little longer—and so does the challenge of squeezing through ever-tighter corners. Crashing into your own tail or running off the map means starting over, but that’s part of the charm: it’s the classic Snake feel, only you’re racing past real landmarks.
What really makes it addictive, though, is how easy it is to share your high score and nudge friends into taking a turn themselves. Between the nostalgic thrill of that old-school snake mechanic and the novelty of touring the world’s greatest cities in bite-sized bits, it’s a foolproof way to kill a few minutes — or an hour, if you let yourself get sucked in. And hey, who wouldn’t want a reason to revisit the same map a dozen times, just to see how far you can really go?
