Every web user has experienced internet connection loss at least once. This can occur for a variety of reasons, such as a cellular network malfunction or a broken internet cable. However, regardless of the cause, all Google Chrome users see the Dino game instead of a blank error page when they are offline. It is possible to play this game without an internet connection.

Even though the dinosaur game is nothing more than a simple runner built into the Google Chrome browser, the developers behind it deserve praise. The game's unique monochrome graphics and simplicity make it even more enjoyable, and it has amassed a large number of worldwide fans since its release.

The main character of the game is a Tyrannosaurus rex, the type of dinosaur typically depicted in films and books about dinosaurs. It is a carnivorous dinosaur from the Cretaceous period. In the game, the character must jump or duck to avoid pterodactyls and cacti while running through the desert. As the distance the dinosaur has traveled increases, so does its speed, making it challenging for an inexperienced player to achieve a high score, despite the game's apparent simplicity.

Surely, you're all curious about the evolution of the Chrome Dinosaur Game Online, so let's go back in time for a moment.

History Google Dinosaur Game

The development of the T-Rex video game began in September 2014, but the final enhancements were not made until December of that year. The modifications supported older Android operating system versions.
One of the game's designers, Sebastien Gabriel, claims that the T-rex was chosen as a humorous reference to "prehistoric times," when high-speed internet was not widely available.

The T-rex was also not chosen by accident. The offline Chrome Dino game was also known as "Project Bolan," a reference to the popular singer Mark Bolan of the 1970s band T. Rex. While designing the game, the programmers considered giving Dino a growl or a kick. In the end, these features were rejected in order to preserve the game's "prehistoric" simplicity.How to Play the Offline Chrome Dinosaur Game?As stated previously, Chrome Dino Game is a free, endless runner game in which a T-Rex must avoid numerous obstacles, such as cactuses and pterodactyls, along its path. As soon as the player presses the space bar or taps the dinosaur on a touchscreen, if the game is launched on a mobile device, the dinosaur begins running automatically.

To avoid the cactuses, the player must use the space bar or the up arrow key to make the dinosaur leap over them. To avoid the second obstacle (flying pterodactyls), the player must use the down arrow key to make the character duck. When the dinosaur collides with either obstacle, the game ends and the score is displayed. Points are awarded based on the game's elapsed time.

The objective is to survive for as long as possible. As the game progresses, the background color alternates between white and black (symbolizing day and night). The T-Rex Dino runner will stop in the built-in browser game not only if it fails to avoid an obstacle, but also when the internet connection is restored.

According to the developers, it would take approximately 17 million years to complete the game in its entirety. Approximately that long ago, Tyrannosaurus Rex dinosaurs still roamed the planet. In addition, since the game's speed increases continuously, there is a point at which humans are physically incapable of avoiding obstacles. Even neural networks that were taught to play the Dino game ultimately fail due to the low frame refresh rate. That is how fast the dinosaur can travel.
