Score to beat: 400
The rocks on trail #2 are square blocks of four rocks. You will meet 8 rocks grouped into 2 clumps, laid out symmetrically, with 424 cells still free and 20 rows completely clear.
This is a Walls trail, so the border is solid. The snake starts at 7 cells per second and speeds up with every fruit, reaching about 7.9 cells per second by the 10th fruit that clears the stage.
Test run
In our test run, a simple path-finding player cleared this trail in 13 seconds, scoring 400 points. It plays safe rather than fast, so a confident human can beat that time.
How to approach it
The square blocks leave wide corridors between them. Treat each block like a roundabout: circle it on the outside lane and keep the inside clear for the tail.
