"Snake is a game of tactical skill and strategic planning for the Sorcerer. Run the snake over one digit numbers without crashing the snake into the walls of into itself.
|
|
|
|
Your score is the sum of all the numbers it has "eaten". The higher the better. As the snake "digests" the numbers it grows longer and becomes harder to control.
|
|
|
|
If you take too much time to run over a number, it disappears and another one appears in a different place on the screen."
|
|
|
|
The Snake variety of games originated with the arcade game Blockade, released by Gremlin in 1976. Snake is like a one person version of Blockade but instead of having to block your opponent, you must eat food (here numbers) and avoid to block/eat yourself.

We have no release date for this Exidy Sorcerer version, but it might be one of the first implementation of the Snake game on a microcomputer.
