Apple Worm is a puzzle game where players control a worm navigating through various platforms. The objective is to collect apples and guide the worm to the portal at the end of each level. Eating an apple increases the worm's length, which helps in overcoming wide gaps and reaching the exit.
Players use the arrow keys to move the worm across the platforms. The worm can crawl left, right, up, or down within the boundaries of the level. Eating an apple will make the worm longer, allowing it to cross larger spaces that were previously unreachable.
Once the apple is collected, the player must carefully plan the remaining moves to avoid getting trapped or falling off the platform. Reaching the portal completes the level.
The game uses a clean 2D design with simple graphics. Platforms are clearly defined, and the worm has a distinctive appearance that makes it easy to track movement. The background is usually minimal, keeping the focus on gameplay and movement paths.
Apple Worm shares some gameplay concepts with classic snake games and logic-based platformers. Unlike fast-paced games, Apple Worm focuses on deliberate movement and careful decision-making as the player navigates each level.
Apple Worm can be played directly in web browsers and supports both desktop and mobile devices.
