Hexanaut.io - Free 3D Multiplayer Snake Game

Hexanaut.io is a free .io game played entirely in your browser. Like splix.io or paper.io but in 3D: loop your tail around hexagonal tiles to capture territory, grab totems for passive bonuses, and reach 20% of the map to become King. Hold that lead for 3 minutes (or knock out every opponent) to win.

Invite a friend and team up in Duo mode, or jump into a server with up to 45 players and fight for the top spot. Earn your rank from Bronze up to Elite, climb the leaderboard, and try the rotating Weekly mode for new rules every week.

No download or install needed. Works on school Chromebooks, runs unblocked. Also available on Android. Create a free account to save your progress, track your stats, and unlock cosmetic skins.

  • Free For All: Solo, totems only. Reach 20% of the map to become King.
  • Duo: Team mode, share territory and bonuses with your partner.

  • Weekly: Rotating special rules, changes every week.
Game rules
Capturing territory
Capture territory to level up and gain a speed bonus. For that, wander outside your territory and your player will draw a tail behind them. Loop back to your territory to capture enclosed hexagons.
Death
Slice other player's tail to eliminate them.
Don't collide other player's head or you will both get eliminated, unless you are on your territory where you are always safe.
Becoming King and winning
Reach a certain threshold of total map ownership (20%) to become the King.
You will get a speed bonus and will be shown all player's positions on the minimap.
But beware because your position will be shown on their minimap too.
Once you become the King, a countdown will start (3 minutes) and you need to keep your territory percentage above the threshold to win the game!
Alternatively, you can clean up the map from your opponents, they will be eliminated if there is a King and won't be able to respawn.
Totems
Speed totem gives you an additional speed bonus
Spreading totem automatically captures nearby hexagons
Spy dish shows territory for other players on the minimap
Teleport gate teleports you as far as possible on your territory
Slowing totem generates a cloudy area where your opponents are slowed down
Items (only in PRO gamemode)
Items are given randomly when you pick-up an airdrop. Airdrops are made regularly in your vicinity, and always on your territory. Items need to be manually activated at the right time: CLICK or press SPACE (or tap the button on mobile)
Cannon fires a bullet that will slice the opponent's head
Scissors fires a projectile that will cut any opponent's tail
Capture Grenade fires a grenade that will capture an area of territory when exploding
Speed Cell gives you a speed bonus for a short period of time
Brick Wall places an impassable wall at a certain distance in front of you
Shield will protect your tail from slicing, and head from collisons, for a short period of time
Capture Rake captures extra tiles around your tail, for a short period of time
Progression
Coins
The more you play, the more you will gain coins. Coins can be used to buy items to customize your player
In addition, chests will be gifted regularly. Opening them will give you immediately a random item.
Ranks
Compete to climb the ranked ladder: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Master, and Elite. Your rank reflects your performance across all games.
