Snake
Verdict
Eat as much food as possible without colliding. There is no completion state in most versions — play continues until the snake dies, so the objective is maximum length or score.
Why people argue about this
People often assume that in Snake games, players aim to simply eat as much food as possible without dying, which leads them to overlook the aspect of maintaining length or score—both can be maximized by eating more food and surviving longer, not just eating faster. They miss out on understanding the rule's true intent: maximizing either length or score, rather than just quantity alone.
Send this to your friend — argument over.

A theoretical perfect game exists: filling the entire grid with the snake's body. It is achievable only with a strategy that guarantees the snake can always reach its tail.
