There is really something about Google. It has the knack of being one of the most innovative we browsers about and there's a reason for that. Google is well known for hiding tricks and games in the unlikeliest of places. I'm sure you must have stumbled across at least a few of those.
Google Chrome isn't just the place to search for things. It can be a lot of fun as well. So take a break and give your brain a rest with some fun features hidden in Google.

10 Best Hidden Google Games You Can Play

Here's a look at the ten best-hidden games in Google:

We all know what happens when we have no connectivity on Google. T-Rex shows up. And what a lot of us don't realize is that this is a game. Our dear 'no connectivity' T-Rex is an endless runner that jumps over cacti and pterodactyls as they are trying and creates obstacles for you. The longer you run, the more points you score.
So how do you play this game? Just hit the spacebar to start the game next time you don't have connectivity. T-Rex runs. And you use the spacebar to make him jump. It's that simple.

Now, who doesn't love a good old game of Pac-Man? It's not the most exciting of games, what with a little girl circle eating some colored dots and being chased by ghosts. But you have to admit it's addicting as ever.

3. Android Version Icons

Don't know what each version of Android looks like? Don't fret? Every time a new update is launched, its icon is somewhere hidden in its version.
There isn't much that you can do with it per se, but it's neat to know where it is all the same. And it's always fun to watch what the new version looks like when you get the update right?
To get to the icon, go to Settings and scroll to 'About Phone'/ here you find the Android Version and tap it several times in quick succession. Then the appropriate icon will show up according to your version of Android.

Flappy Bird took over the smartphone gaming scene by storm. It was a time waster, needed by many like me, and managed to fill the void many people were looking for when it was pulled off the market, a lot of us were disappointed.
But the Android team decided to bring it back with a bit of a twist. And so we have Flappy Droid. To play this game, you need the Lollipop or Marshmallow version of Android. First, find the hidden version icon. Then you tap that icon several times and long press a few times. The game will launch. Enjoy being taken over by your new addiction.
