Score to beat: 3,520
On trail #45 the board holds single stones scattered in a mirror pattern, 56 rocks in total and 44 clumps. The pattern is the same in all four quarters; 6 rows of the board are untouched and 376 cells stay open.
This is a No walls trail: leave the board on one side and you come back on the other, so the border is a shortcut rather than a danger. The snake starts at 13.1 cells per second and reaches about 14.4 by the 12th fruit.
Test run
In our test run, a simple path-finding player cleared this trail in 11 seconds, scoring 3,520 points. It plays safe rather than fast, so a confident human can beat that time.
How to approach it
Single stones barely block anything, but they break up long straight runs. Swing wide around them so the body does not snag on a stone later.
