Start at the head
The eyes and tongue tell you which way a snake wants to leave. Imagine a straight line from that head to the edge of the board. If another snake occupies any part of that line, the move is blocked—even if there is a gap immediately in front of the head.
Tap, watch, then look again
When the path is clear, tap the snake. It crawls out head-first along its winding route. Its departure can free a head on the other side of the board, so take a fresh look after every exit. The body’s bends do not change the direction you need to check.
A blocked tap costs a heart
A blocked snake moves toward the obstacle, bumps, flashes red, and returns. The blocker flashes too, showing what you missed. Pause and follow that clue before trying again. You can pinch to zoom in the mobile game when heads are close together.
Finish the whole rescue
The cat waits in a protected pocket. It is safe from snake paths, but the puzzle is complete only when every snake has left. Standard campaign boards are untimed; selected hazard levels and Rescue Rush add a clock.
Common questions
Do colors tell me the order?
No. Colors help you follow each body. The head direction and blockers decide which snake can leave.
Can a correct move ruin the puzzle?
No. Removing a legal snake only removes blockers. It cannot make another free snake become blocked.
Do I need to swipe?
No. Tap the snake. Use pinch gestures only to inspect the board more closely.
