To save your screen grab on PC, press the "prt sc" button on your keyboard, open up "paint" and click Paste.
you can crop it so we dont see the rest of your comp.

To screen grab on your mobile/tablet, Google "How to screen grab with a (include the make of your phone)"
Its normally the power button and volume down key press at the same time on most mobile makes.

  • once its uploaded, right click the image
  • choose "open link in new tab"
  • and there you will see your image, just copy that address


Now you have your image address.. you just need to post it here on this thread.
go to the reply box and hit the "insert image" button

Here are my tips for getting a high score:

  • Play on PC using the mouse for the best and most responsive control
  • Just like STO, this game has several different instances to accommodate all the players
  • If you're in a laggy instance, hit F5 to refresh and be put in a new one
  • At first, head to the middle of the map and find where all the action is
  • Follow the big worms around
  • You'll be too small for them to waste time on, so you'll be relatively safe
  • When those big worms die, feed on them and try not to collide during the feeding frenzy that follows
  • The middle is a high risk/high reward area
  • Once you're a respectable size, head out to the outer regions of the map where it's not as busy and therefore safer
  • Coil around smaller worms for an easy meal


Hope it helps a bit!  Good luck to all!

I've been trying for the last few days, but can barely get out of the hundreds, let alone the thousands. I lag so bad I can barely control where my worm goes.

I'm having the same issue, like it has a mind of its own... Browser or phone?
