Dinosaur Game, also known as Chrome Dino or T-Rex Runner, is a simple but extremely popular mini game, integrated into the Chrome browser by Google since 2014. This game appears when the computer or phone does not have an internet connection, providing an interesting way to entertain while waiting for the network to return.

Simple but attractive gameplay
In Dinosaur Game, players will control a T-Rex dinosaur running through an endless desert, avoiding obstacles such as cacti and flying birds by jumping (Space or up arrow key) or crouching (down arrow key).

The only goal is to run as far as possible without colliding with obstacles. When reaching a certain number of points, the speed of the game will gradually increase, making the challenge more and more difficult. If the player reaches 99999 points, the counter will return to 0, but most of them cannot reach this number due to the increasing difficulty.

Special features of Dinosaur Game
No internet required - This is the most unique feature of the game, helping users entertain when losing network connection.
Simple, easy-to-play mechanism - With just a few keystrokes, anyone can try this game.
Increasing difficulty - The longer you play, the faster the speed, requiring good reflexes and high concentration.

Night mode - When reaching about 700 points, the screen will change to a black background, simulating day and night time.

Popularity of Dinosaur Game
Although it is just a "hidden" game in Chrome, Dinosaur Game has become a global phenomenon. Many players try to break the score record, there are even mods that help change characters or add special features.

Additionally, Google is releasing a special edition to celebrate Chrome Dino's 10th birthday in 2024, allowing players to use support items such as speed boots, shields, and many new features.
