Five more Google Easter eggs you didn’t know existed

Easter eggs from viewing the surface of Mars to playing Pacman online.

Last week we looked at five Google Easter eggs and this week we’ll look at five more mind blowing tricks you probably did not know existed.

Remember the term Zerg Rush?

Zerg Rush

If you Google “Zerg Rush” the little circles from the game will appear and will destroy your search results but if you’re quick enough, you can defeat some of them by clicking on the circles repeatedly.

With so many breakthroughs in technology, we have no managed to send machines to Mars. Did you know that you can view the surface of Mars on Google Earth?

Are you indecisive about a decision?

Flip a coin

Google “flip a coin” and Google will generate a flippable coin. You can also Google “roll a die” and a die will appear because you never know when you need to make a decision depending on a number of a die.

Are you a big fan of Pac-Man but don’t know where to find the game?

Pacman

If you Google “Google Pacman” your first result will be a playable search result. Oddly, if you search the correct spelling “Google Pac-Man” (note the hyphen), it prompts you to the incorrect spelling “Google Pacman.”

Google Maps’ Pegman has been seen in various clothing depending on where you put him.

Loch Ness

Go to Google Maps and search “Loch ness,” drop Pegman on the marker and you’ll see him morph into Nessie sporting a tartan hat.
