The Original Easter Egg
How It Started
During Tokyo 2020 (held in 2021), Google rolled out several sports-themed twists for the Chrome Dinosaur Game. An Olympic torch could appear mid-run — grab it to switch into Olympic event mode.
What It Did
The Gymnastics edition reimagined Chrome Dino as a vault-style event. Instead of the standard desert sprint, the T-Rex tackled a gymnastics-themed challenge in a dedicated arena, giving the game a distinctly Olympic feel. Other Olympic events included hurdles, swimming, surfing, and equestrian.
It stood out because it pushed the Dino game beyond a simple visual reskin. The mode kept the pick-up-and-play charm of the original while giving players a more dramatic sport-specific twist.
Impact and Reach
Players loved seeing Chrome Dino stretch into a completely different Olympic discipline. The gymnastics theme helped make the 2021 Olympic update feel broader and more playful than a simple cosmetic change.
Its Discontinuation
Like the other Olympic modes, Gymnastics was a limited event and disappeared after the Games — short-lived, memorable, and much missed.

What is Chrome Dinosaur Game?
Chrome Dinosaur Game is Google's official offline runner built into Chrome. It first appeared in 2014 on the No Internet page, where a small pixel T-Rex waited for players to press Space and run.
The game is also known as T-Rex Runner or the chrome://dino game. You jump over cacti, duck under pterodactyls, and keep going until one obstacle finally catches the dinosaur.
This page keeps the classic run playable and adds an easy doorway to AI/Bot Mode, Christmas mode, Birthday, Olympic, and 3D Dino editions.
How do I play the Dino runner?
Start the run, then keep your eyes on the next obstacle. The controls are easy to learn, but the rising speed keeps every run tense.
- Press Space, the Up arrow, or tap to jump.
- Press Down to duck when pterodactyls fly low.
- Stay alive as the score climbs and the desert moves faster.
- Use AI/Bot Mode, Christmas mode, or the version menu when you want a different Dino route.
Is the original Chrome Dinosaur Game still available?
Yes. The classic Chrome Dinosaur Game remains part of Chrome and can still be opened from the No Internet page or from chrome://dino.
This website treats the classic runner as an enhanced hub, not as a discontinued promo. The temporary Birthday and Olympic skins have their own timelines, while the main desert run remains the heart of the page.
