Need a Random Distraction? You Can Play Snake on Spotify by "Eating Your Playlist"

Pass time with music in the background.

(SPOT.ph) Spotify is back with a new interactive feature—except this isn't just some groundbreaking innovation, it's a callback. 

Remember that classic Snake game that was preloaded on every Nokia phone in the late '90s? Spotify created its own version with a rather expected twist. Instead of apples and oranges, the snake wants to eat music. Its body will then be composed of the tracks it consumed. 

The rules are simple: Feed the snake by guiding it to individual tracks on the playlist. The game ends when the snake comes into contact with its body or touches the walls of the phone screen. The concept is nothing new, but hey, why fix something that isn't broken? The playing music will reflect what the snake just ate, while the background color will change to match the album art.

The thing about Spotify's "Eat this playlist" is that there’s no actual end to the game if you're too good at it. Once the songs in the playlist run out, it will loop to repeat again from the beginning so that the growing snake could eat more. Be careful not to get sucked in!
