About the Game The goal is to completely surround a group of pieces of one color, by making a loop with the other color. The number of surrounded pieces determines your score for that round.
Use the left and right arrow keys to choose where to place each piece, and hit the spacebar to place it. Around the current piece is a halo that shrinks to indicate the passage of time. When time runs out, the piece is placed automatically. The amount of time allowed per move gets shorter with each passing level.
The game ends when a piece is placed in a row with no room left and goes off the board.
Tips:
Although the color of each new piece is random, with skill you can almost guarantee success. To help you plan ahead, the next five pieces in the queue are shown at all times. The game cycles through all six sides repeatedly, so you can use each move as the foundation for the next move. The art of playing Snaparound is knowing how large a loop you can shoot for without being too greedy!
The dotted line shows an example of a small loop. Loops can be of any shape or size as long as they don't go off the board.
