Nibbler is an arcade snake maze video game released in 1982 by Chicago-based developer Rock-Ola. The player navigates a snake through an enclosed maze, consuming objects, and the length of the snake increases with each object consumed. The game was the first to include nine scoring digits, allowing players to surpass one billion points.
The arcade game was distributed in Japan by Taito in 1983. Home versions were published in 1983 by Datasoft for the Atari 8-bit computers and Apple II.
