Check Out This Wimbledon 8-Bit Easter Egg Game In Google Search

You don’t need to be the biggest tennis fan in the world to know that Wimbledon is underway. It may be starting to draw to a close but you can still enjoy a little tennis of your own thanks to a Google Easter Egg.

Google likes to put these Easter eggs into its searches every now and again, and this one is pretty awesome.

All you have to do is search for “Wimbledon” and then swipe or drag across the match results bar. You’ll eventually come to a little pixel art tennis ball. Tap or click that and you’re into the game.

That game is a simple of of returning the ball as many times as possible hoping to beat your own high score. The characters are selected at random. We’ve seen rabbits, The Flash, and other cool characters that we won’t spoil for you.

The game is surprisingly hard considering all you need to do is swipe left or right to move your character to where the ball is going. If you’re using a computer then you’ll have to use the left and right arrows on your keyboard which is arguably even harder.

This game isn’t going to take your weekend from you but it’s certainly a welcome diversion from the trials and tribulations of a boring Friday afternoon. Give it a try and see how high you can score. Hopefully it’s better than our awful performance.
