What are some tricks and tips to playing?

1. Control the Movement: You might observe this that, your snake will not for once stop slithering in this game (or in any other IO Game). There’s no pause in this game! One of the toughest things to do then, once you begin accelerating your snake, is controlling your haze, greed, and slither, especially after upgrading your rewards. Observing other players, focusing, and fearlessly jumping in the arena each time is the key here. Be slow, when you know the enemy is crazy on acceleration, and be fast, if you see someone slow. 
2. Avoid “Surround & Strangle” whenever possible: Do not depend on circling around a snake; avoid it as much as you can. Why? Because usually, you’ll find yourself being strangled by another player and it is highly annoying. Instead, try to cleverly use acceleration or luring them to hit the rock, bushes, or other snakes.
3. Accelerate as you Loop: When you are in a field filled with snakes or being chased on a river by speedy snakes, be calm, and focus more. Always stimulate your snake when you want to turn. Create loops when you are unable to control the speed. Most often you’ll be saved and in fact, even kills some players. If there is no space between you and other snakes, then there is less chance to be saved, even without acceleration. It is always better to give it a shot then.
4. Chase their Tail:  If a bigger snake or more experienced player tries to strangle you, immediately try to chase their tail. You’ll fool them and escape. Though, some smarty-pants who might see through what you are doing. Don’t fear at all! Give them a hard run. Try to run parallelly with them and make them hit something or someone. If you are bound to turn, then avoid making a circle from your body or collapsing in, as if you’ll do that, they’ll definitely try to circle you. Instead try making a bigger circle, or circle around a rock, and if you can, try to reach the Lair Rock, and exit the game, unharmed.
5. Devour All-Eggs, Slugs, and Bugs: You do not always need to kill snakes to score more. Instead, be opportunistic. Leave no slug, bug, or eggs behind as you slither around the fields. Let others kill snakes and eat their food (Ye, be bad like that!). Always try to suffocate or bust Green Eggs and collect more and more goodies. Brown Eggs are a great source as well when you can’t find any snake to kill and eat. Devor Brown Eggs, Clever Big Slugs, and Bugs!
6. How to Fool Slugs? Always try to catch them either sideways or with their eyes facing your head. Slugs run when they feel someone is running after them. Most of them turn around once they escape once, often foolishly ending up being squished under snakes.
7. Co-operation is the “Key”: The best way to quickly complete all the levels is to always try to make more friends and playing along with them. You can literally fear other snakes. If someone from your team kills the rebel, you can get half of what that player will receive. If you and your partner/team get along well in a game, then you can have some really fun time dominating the fields and even the whole arena!
8. Don’t Chase Crowns: As you keep growing your body, you’ll be rewarded with keys and crowns eventually. After 10 tons of mass, you gain a crown itself. So, no need to chase and kill the snakes with crowns deliberately, if you can’t. Your wealth will increase as you’ll continue killing and eating more. Instead, as I said before, be opportunistic. When you try too hard in a game like this, you’ll not only keep on dying too soon but also end up with more diseases in reality as well. Instead, be confident and fearless. Laugh more and be light on your head and hand.
9. Trick the Snakes: When a snake is chasing you, try to play and trick them. Often Autopilot can save you. Otherwise, try to make them follow parallelly with you in a straight line and make them hit the rock or another snake.
10. Be a Clever Bug: When you play as a Juja-the bug, always eat slugs and stay in air more than you stay on the field. Land on your food directly and immediately fly away. If you are not able to land on food directly, fly again, and land again. Once near the food, if another bug eats it, do not fight them or begin walking. Fly!
