Google Doodle Celebrates Popcorn with an Interactive Multiplayer Game

Google has created a special interactive Doodle to celebrate the beloved snack, popcorn. This Doodle features a fun game where players compete against each other from around the world to avoid getting “popped.” The game is accessible directly from Google’s homepage and is available for a limited time.

History of Popcorn

Popcorn has a rich history dating back to the early 16th century when it was widely cultivated by Mesoamerican civilizations. These cultures not only enjoyed popcorn as a snack but also used it to decorate ceremonial garb. In the United States, popcorn gained popularity in the 1800s and was even consumed as a breakfast cereal with milk. The invention of the first popcorn machine in the 1890s revolutionized the way people enjoyed this crunchy treat, making it a staple at events and movie theaters.

How to Play the Google Doodle Popcorn Game

  1. Open Google Chrome and click on the Doodle featuring the popcorn theme.
  2. A short tutorial will introduce the game mechanics and objectives. The main goal is to avoid getting “popped” while progressing through increasingly challenging levels.
  3. Players can choose to compete with others from around the world or play solo. For those playing with friends, there’s a “squad mode” option.
  4. In solo mode, players can select a kernel with unique abilities and appearances. Squad mode offers the same functionality but allows friends to team up and play together.
  5. During the game, players use the arrow keys to move their kernels and the spacebar to activate special abilities when projectiles are nearby. The last kernel standing wins the game.

Record-Breaking Doodle

Today’s Google Doodle celebrates the moment when Thailand claimed the world record for creating the largest popcorn machine in 2020. Interestingly, this Doodle has set its record by hosting the highest number of players competing simultaneously in a single match.

Conclusion

Google’s interactive Doodle celebrating popcorn is a fun and engaging way to commemorate the history and popularity of this classic snack. Whether you’re a popcorn enthusiast or simply looking for an entertaining game to play, this Doodle offers a unique and interactive experience that brings players together from all over the world. So, grab a bowl of your favorite popcorn variety and get ready to compete in this record-breaking Doodle game!
