Snake

Feed the snake with as many goodies as possible and watch it grow. Use
keys 2, 4, 6, and 8 to turn the snake toward food. The longer the snake's
tail grows, the higher your score. If the snake runs into its own tail or the
surrounding wall, the game is over.
Start a two-player game
Snake can be played as a two-player game using the IR ports of two
phones.
Before starting a two-player game, make sure that the IR ports of the two
devices are pointing at each other and that the IR connection is activated.
Both players need to start the same game on their phones.

Logic

shown at the top of the screen. Press the 5 key repeatedly to select a figure
and the 2, 4, and 8 keys to move the cursor. Once you think you have the
right combination, press the
above the column. A correct figure in the right place gets a full mark; a
correct figure in the wrong place gets a half mark. The game ends when the
correct figures are in the right place.
Tip: To copy a figure from the previous column, move the cursor over it
using the 2, 4, or 8 key, then press the 5 key.
