When Did You First Discover This?: Unveiling Your Chrome Browser's Hidden Game by Glimpsetv(op):
This is going to be very unusual, but let me be very quick about it. When did you first discover that the stuff that pops up on your Chrome browser whenever you lose your internet connection was a game?

Well, I know millions of people might have known, but I am sure there are also thousands of users out there who haven't discovered this yet. So, I thought I should share.

I discovered this a while ago while I was browsing, and my internet connection got disconnected. I got this notification on my screen that says “No internet?” and this small image of a dinasure appears at the top. Out of curiosity, I clicked on the image, and it immediately started moving. That was when I discovered it was actually a game meant to keep you busy while you are waiting for your internet connection to be restored.

So, I started playing, and it has really been fun. As you can see, at first, my highest score was just 01006, and I couldn't even get past that range for some time. However, I decided I was going to break that record today, so I kept playing.

Then comes the flying bird. Sometimes the bird just flies low, so you will have to jump, and other times it comes flying higher. In this case, you don't need to jump, just keep moving.

Yeah, after some losses in about 8 minutes of playing, I was able to break my former record, and that was relieving. Hahahaha.

I hope you like this. I think I will keep doing this once in a while to see how far I can go with this. I believe there are beautiful things I am yet to see in this game until I cross certain stages.

Let me know if you have been playing this and the highest score you’ve ever gotten so far.

Mine was around 2019. But I discovered it in my laptop before I knew the one in our mobile phones could do the same.

Sometimes, I switch OFF my data just to pass time with the game.

I would try it.

They didn't even hint that it was a game, and when network fails, playing game is the least of one's concern.

Since 2016. That day, there was network failure so I just decided to click on the bird and jumped and at the top I saw scores counting. So that's how the journey started . And I love the game so much to the extend that I will intentionally off my data just to play the game n

Today! My daughter pressed a button I saw the dinosaur started moving, that was when I remembered that Microsoft too had this feature when PCs first came

Hehe... Known of the game for long sha.

If you want to summon the game without turning off internet, just type in chrome://dino in the URL bar.

If you have a laptop with Edge browser, type in edge://surf and a similar simple game will pop up.

If you're looking for other fun games hidden in your Android phone, open Google app, not chrome and search something when there's no internet. You'll see a cloud guy and a Play button, click to get your game running.

Or, open Play Store when there's no data and try to search something. If you're lucky, they'll display No Internet and give you the option to play Hot Air Balloon
