The Dinosaur Game, often referred to as Chrome Dino or T-Rex Runner, is a charming and surprisingly addictive offline mini-game built into the Google Chrome browser. Developed by Google engineers in 2014, it was designed as a lighthearted distraction for users during internet outages.
In this endless runner, you guide a pixelated Tyrannosaurus Rex across a desert terrain, dodging obstacles such as cacti and swooping pterodactyls. The gameplay is straightforward: jump or duck to avoid hazards while the pace steadily increases, testing your reaction time and concentration.
To start playing, simply press the spacebar when the “No Internet” screen appears in Chrome. Your dinosaur will immediately begin its sprint, and the challenge unfolds. Despite its minimalist graphics and mechanics, the game has gained a massive following and is enjoyed by millions worldwide.
