Letter snake

NewFreeComputer and phone

Steer the Animorio gem across a fine grid: its body is the word «animorio», written letter by letter. The letter to eat keeps changing: catch it when it turns orange, the one that continues the word, and it counts double; every finished word throws a little party and drops a card into the field.

How it’s made

  • In steps, but smooth

    The snake moves in grid steps, like the classic game, but the drawing glides between squares: the letters follow the head on a spring, widen a little in the bends and narrow on Mona Sans’s wdth axis as they turn.

  • The right letter

    The food tile changes letter, rolling like a film frame, and the letter that continues the word comes back every three changes: a thin line under the tile shows how long until the next change.

  • The cards

    Each finished word brings a card like the library’s, first drawn as an outline and then dropped into the field, where it becomes a wall; between games the site’s shutter comes down.
