Coilout: Snake Puzzle
Retro arcade + daily puzzles
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Coilout is two games in one: a logic puzzle about sliding snakes off a grid, and a retro arcade snake you can play solo or against a nearby iPhone.
ESCAPE
Each snake only moves the way it faces. Tap the right one, in the right order, and watch it slide out. Later boards add walls, pressure plates, gates, ice, and wormholes. Thirty campaign levels, hints, undo, and stars for a clean run.
CLASSIC SNAKE
The old phone game. Eat the dots, grow, don't hit the wall. Pick a maze, grab rare power-ups, or turn on a CPU ghost that hunts the same food. Link Cable lets two nearby iPhones play a face-off on the same board over Bluetooth or Wi-Fi.
DAILY
One generated board a day, the same for everyone. Keep a streak.
MAKE YOUR OWN
Draw a level in the editor, check that it can be solved, then save it or share a link. Open someone else's link and it lands in your list.
ALSO
• LCD themes, optional CRT scanlines
• Colour-blind marks and a safer palette
• iCloud sync for stars, scores, and your levels
• Game Center leaderboards and achievements
• Optional sound (square-wave blips)
No ads. No account required. Play offline except for Game Center, iCloud, and Link Cable.
