The Dinosaur Game (also known as the "No Internet Game" or "Chrome Dino" was introduced by Google in 2014 as part of the Chrome browser. Its purpose was straightforward: entertain users when their internet connection failed. Instead of showing a generic error page, Chrome displayed a tiny, pixelated T-Rex next to the message "No internet". Pressing the spacebar would start an endless runner where the dinosaur jumped over cacti and ducked under pterodactyls.
What Google didn’t expect was that players would intentionally disconnect their Wi-Fi just to play it. https://dinosaur-game.io
