If you didn't know, Dino Game (or "Dinosaur's Lost Life") is among the most popular video games ever.

Where Dino Game Began

In September 2014, the dinosaur game was released to occupy users in the event that they experienced an internet outage. Under the direction of designer Sebastien Gabriel, the Google development team made this game to pass the time when they weren't connected to the internet.

Color scheme
Inspired by the "pre-internet era"—that is, the time when dinosaurs roamed the earth—and the pixel art style, the game features a T-Rex. Additionally meant to evoke memories of vintage video games are the game's basic, monochrome visuals.

Covert mode
You don't need an active internet connection to activate this game. In order to begin playing right away, without having to wait for your connection to drop, simply type "chromdino" into the address bar of your Chrome browser.

Player statistics
When you lose, the game ends, but there is no specific ending. Players can push themselves to their limits and aim for the highest score they can achieve. With the help of automatic gaming tools, the current world record in this game is over 99,999 points.

Alterations and revisions
Various Google events, such as the game's birthday or festivals, have prompted updates to the dinosaur game. As an example, Google included party hats and cakes in the game to celebrate the game's fifth birthday.
