Several years ago, Google added a fun little Easter egg to Chrome: if your internet went down and you tried to visit a web page, you'd see the message 'Unable to connect to the Internet' or 'No internet' with a little pixilated dinosaur next to it.
Many people probably just thought the dinosaur was a cute little icon to keep them company while their connection was down. But then someone pressed the space bar. And the dino started running.
This little Easter egg has become a beloved game. But what if you just want to play it (careful, it's addictive) when you're online and need a break? In this article, you'll learn how to play the game when you're both off and online.
How to play the Chrome dino or Trex game offline
If your internet is down, just open Chrome. Or if you're already in Chrome, try to visit any web page. You'll see that little dinosaur next to its error message.
Simply press the space bar (or up arrow) and the dino will start running. Press the up arrow to jump over the obstacles (like cacti) in your path. The longer you hold the up arrow, the higher dino will jump.
If you need to duck under something, press the down arrow.
The longer you play, the faster dino runs/the ground moves. Once you crash into something, the game is over and you have to restart (your score resets, too). You can play again by hitting the space bar.
