The Dino Game, also known as the Chrome Dino or T‑Rex Runner, is a hidden browser game created by Google’s Chrome UX team, Sebastien Gabriel, Alan Bettes, and Edward Jung and launched in 2014. It features a pixelated T‑Rex dinosaur sprinting across a monochrome desert landscape.
Players guide the T‑Rex to dodge cacti, jump over obstacles, and eventually duck pterodactyls that fly in after 450 points. The simple controls, tap space or press up arrow to jump, and press down arrow to duck – make it a timeless, accessible endless runner that tests reflexes while celebrating internet downtime.
Run from extinction in Dino Game, a simple yet addictive endless runner. Perfect for Crazy Cattle 3D fans who love quick games. Try Crossy Road or Funny Animal games. Check Physics-Based for action.
Play Battle Royale for chaos.

The game speeds up over time – dodge continuously to rack up a high score. The cycle of day-night modes adds a visual twist.
Timing Is Key: Anticipate the cactus spacing and adjust jump timing precisely.
Use Ducking: Once airborne creatures appear (post-450 points), duck them smartly.
Maintain Focus: Speed increases continuously – push reaction time to its limits.
Ignore Cheats: Authentic gameplay shines best without hacks or scripts.
The Dino Game has evolved from a simple offline Easter egg into a beloved icon of minimalist gaming. With lightning reflex testing, hidden surprises, and nostalgic pixel art, it's no wonder this game still captivates millions (over 270 million plays monthly as of 2018). So next time your internet cuts out, hit that space bar, and see how long your T‑Rex can run!
