In a recent app update, Spotify introduced a new hidden game called ‘Eat This Playlist.’ It’s similar to the classic Snake game we used to play for hours on our Nokia phones in our childhood. If you’re eager to try out this game and relive your old memories while listening to your favorite music tracks, here’s how to play Spotify’s hidden Snake game on your iPhone and Android phone.

How to Play Snake Game on Spotify
If you’re already familiar with the snake game, you don’t need any introduction. However, for those who are playing for the first time, here’s how to play this game: Typically, there will be a snake and a fruit or egg, and you have to use gestures to control the snake’s direction to devour the food.
But in the case of Spotify, they have done something different. Instead of food, they are using the tiny album cover, and it keeps playing the corresponding music until you collect the album cover. Also, when you eat the song’s album art, it becomes part of the snake, and the next cover art appears on the screen. Additionally, the game also changes the background color based on the cover art.
And there’s one more exciting feature we almost forgot to mention. If you’re playing the game from any playlist or chart, you can tap on the Plus icon to instantly add the currently playing music to your Liked Songs playlist. Cool, isn’t it?
