If you have mastered the version of Slippery Snail which is first presented in the interactive, then why not try taking it further by changing the settings?
In the interactive game below, you can choose the number of bugs and the length of the snail. You can also choose to limit the maximum number of spots a bug can move on each turn.
Here are some questions you might ask yourself:
- Could it make a difference who goes first?
- What happens if there are more or fewer bugs to start with?
- Does it matter if the bugs begin in different places?
