Catch your own tail to complete the loop!

CatchTail is a grid-based puzzle game with no exit, where your snake slides until something stops it. Push rows of cages, slip through portals, and feed tomatoes to crocodiles to return to your starting point and swallow your own tail.

A puzzle about catching your tail

CatchTail is a grid-based puzzle game built on the ouroboros — the snake that circles all the way round to swallow its own tail. A stage is cleared when your snake makes it back to where it started and swallows its own tail, without ever hitting a dead end or biting into its own body.

100 maps, each one different

There are 100 maps in all, and they keep getting harder as you go. Portals, crocodiles, tomatoes and cages come into play one after another, and the more of them a map holds, the better it feels to find the one route that closes the loop.
