Pakistan

Highest Score In "Snake" (Nokia 125)

Hussain Imran

Hussain Imran of Lahore, Pakistan scored 69 points in Snake on a Nokia 125, the HMD-made keypad phone that keeps the classic Nokia game alive. Filming from above in one continuous take, he opened the phone to show the battery and SIM card, booted it up, showed every high score at zero, and set Classic mode to level 8, the game's top speed. His opening game ended at 69, confirmed on the phone's High Scores screen, and two more tries on camera fell short. Old-school reflexes, new-school proof.
