youtube snake

I just discovered something totally new today! YouTube website has hidden a playable version of Snake in some videos which you can enjoy for hours.

In order to access the classic arcade game go to a video with the new playback style such as this one of a black screen, click on the video window and make sure to pause the video, then press and hold the left arrow key on your keyboard.

Hope you enjoy the game. Have fun!
