Your goal

Step by step
- Press Play to start the movement.
- Turn with arrow keys, swipes or the on-screen direction buttons.

A useful example
When moving right, you may turn up or down, but cannot turn immediately left into your own neck. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Check the stated objective.
Watch out for this
