Snake Byte is video game written by Chuck Sommerville for the Apple II and published by Sirius Software in 1982.

At the start of the game the snake has three lives and gains a life when it successfully exits a level.

After the last apple in each round is eaten the snake must exit the area through a gate which appears.

Higher levels have more complicated fences, making the area trickier to navigate.

It stated that the game "is one of the most engaging and challenging programs you can buy... you can't hope to do better in terms of entertainment.
