Google announced on Monday the gradual online return of ten of its most famous interactive doodles incorporating a game. It is for the digital giant to offer additional distractions to Internet users confined by the spread of the coronavirus, Numerama reports .
It is also a way of encouraging people not to leave their homes. "Stay at home and play with our memory of the day," advises Google on its blog. The company has not yet specified which interactive doodles would have emerged from its archives for the next nine stages of this journey into the past.
A first thematic logo of 2017
The Californian company indicates that the first thematic logo put forward dates from 2017. It was intended to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the accessibility of children to computer coding. The doodle was accompanied by a game called "Coding for carrots".
The interactive animation offers the user to help a rabbit progress along a course dotted with carrots. For this, the player must stack bricks, a concept used to introduce the youngest to the basic principles of coding.
It has not been indicated how long these animations, thus put on the front page, will remain accessible. Numerama points out that the purpose of this approach is to distract Internet users who are called upon to spend a lot of time at home, all over the world.
