help slither.io FAQ

Who created slither.io and when did it come out?

It was created by solo developer Steve Howse under his studio Lowtech Studios and released in March 2016 as a browser game, quickly followed by iOS and Android apps. Like agar.io before it, it proved a single developer could top the charts with a simple .io game.

How do you actually get bigger and win in slither.io?

You grow by consuming the colored pellets scattered around the map and, more efficiently, by gobbling up the glowing remains of defeated snakes. The goal is to become the longest snake on the server and hold the top spot on the live leaderboard — there's no final victory screen since the server never ends.

How does the boost mechanic work in slither.io?

You can sprint by holding down the click or double-tapping the screen, but boosting burns off your length as you go, leaving a trail of pellets behind you. Skilled players boost to cut in front of rivals and force them to crash headlong into their body, since a head hitting any snake is instantly fatal.

How much money did slither.io make at its peak?

At the height of its 2016 virality, the game was reportedly earning around $100,000 per day from mobile advertising. That made it one of the year's biggest surprise hits, and it ranked among the most-downloaded free apps on both app stores that spring.
