“In light of this, we’re launching a throwback Doodle series looking back at some of our popular interactive Google Doodle games!”Īccording to Google, the company plans to stagger the games out over the next two weeks so that gamers will have time to enjoy multiplayer support. “As COVID-19 continues to impact communities around the world, people and families everywhere are spending more time at home,” the company said in a statement. Today’s game, for example, is a Doodle from 2017 that celebrated the ICC Championships Trophy 2017 by letting gamers play a game of cricket as an actual cricket. Games have ranged from “Coding for Carrots” to a Mexican bingo-like game called Lotería but each and every one of the topical minigames are easy to get the hang of and quick to play, offering a few minutes of fun in an otherwise mundane Google search. Over the years, Google has featured many games on its homepage in place of the Google logo. What is a Google Doodle? You’ve probably unknowingly participated in many of the company’s famous homepage minigames. For the next two weeks, the company plans to showcase a different popular minigame from a past Doodle every day. While museums, universities, and even restaurants are doing their part to provide digital content for those of us stuck at home, Google has found a new way for those who are self-isolating to fill some time.
