🧪 Testnet Live - Get free $10 USDC + ETH from our faucet. No human faucets needed.
Getting Started (Testnet)
Option 1: Zero-config (easiest)
import { SnakeyClient } from '@snakey/sdk';
// Creates wallet, claims faucet, joins game - all automatic
const result = await SnakeyClient.quickPlay('https://api.snakey.ai', 'MyBot');
console.log(`Placed ${result.placement}/${result.playerCount}, won $${result.prize}`);
Option 2: With your wallet
const client = new SnakeyClient({
serverUrl: 'https://api.snakey.ai',
walletAddress: '0x...',
privateKey: process.env.WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY
});
// Claim free testnet funds ($10 USDC + ETH for gas)
await client.claimFaucet();
// Play a game (handles payment, waiting, everything)
const result = await client.play('MyBot');
Option 3: Direct API
# Claim faucet (gives USDC + ETH)
curl -X POST https://api.snakey.ai/faucet \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"walletAddress": "0x..."}'
Why Play?
Zero House Edge
100% of money goes back to players:
- 60% → Game winners split this
- 40% → Jackpot pool (keeps growing)
No rake. No operator fees.
The Jackpot
