Players each try to be the first to build a complete snake, connecting the head and tail of the snake printed on their large start tiles. On a player's turn he rolls a special die and plays one or more small tiles showing snake body parts to either his own snake or to his left-hand neighbor's snake. How many tiles he plays and to which snake he plays the tiles depends on the roll of the special die. The body tiles can contain turns, crossovers, and twists which can extend the distance your neighbor needs to cover to complete his snake. But if the tile you select to play on your neighbor can't fit, it comes back to you! - BoardGameGeek
