Although it is not one of the best dinosaur games, the Google dinosaur game has become one of the best free browser games. This is a minigame that you can play for free through Google Chrome when you lose your internet connection. It is known as this because players can guide a T-Rex dinosaur through a side-scrolling arena full of obstacles.

But many do not know that it can also be played offline, either by downloading the source code of the cactus-jumping dinosaur game or, even easier, by accessing the GitHub page of a Chinese developer where you can entertain yourself with this endledss runner without having to be offline.

One of the easiest ways to play Cactus Jumping Dinosaur is by deactivating your internet connection on your PC, laptop or mobile device. In this way you will see that a window appears that is the same or very similar to the one you can see below these lines.

 



Once you see this screen with the dinosaur, you will only have to press the left arrow on your keyboard (or the number pad if you have it) and use the following key combination to move and set a record by avoiding cacti and pterodactyls that threaten stop your progress:

  • Use the left arrow key or the space bar to start the dinosaur's movement.
  • Use the space bar to jump and avoid obstacles on the course. The longer you press it, the longer the dinosaur will jump.
  • Press the ALT key to pause the game if you need to.
  • Use the down arrow key to make the T-Rex come down faster from each jump.

Playing with your mobile is even easier. You just have to tap on the screen to start the game, and tap every time you want to jump.

And that's it, you'll just have to jump and avoid the cacti you see and other obstacles as you progress. Each time it will be a little more difficult, because the dinosaur will go faster and faster to make things a little more difficult for you.

How to play Google dinosaur with an internet connection

Obviously, as we have already told you, there are other ways to play with this dinosaur with an internet connection, without having to deactivate the network for the screen that we have shown you previously to appear. Below you will learn several ways to access Google's Dino T-Rex Runner to play it online - https://dinorunner.com/night/

GitHub

At the beginning of this article we recommended that you access this GitHub page to play the dinosaur game online. You will not have to do anything more than press the space bar to start the tour and use the keys that we detailed above (and that we repeat now) to move:

  • Use the left arrow key or the space bar to start the dinosaur's movement.
  • Use the space bar to jump and avoid obstacles on the course. The longer you press it, the longer the dinosaur will jump.
  • Press the ALT key to pause the game if you need to.
  • Use the down arrow key to make the T-Rex come down faster from each jump.

Code

If you know how to code, you can create your own dinosaur game and play it whenever you feel like it. For this you will only need to download the original code from Google and use it to develop your own app or interactive link.

Your Android mobile

With the game code at our disposal, it was not unusual to expect someone to create a mobile application for Google Play with which to enjoy the cactus-jumping dinosaur game on your mobile. You can play it as if you were in the browser and experience its different levels of difficulty. You just have to download the game from the button you will see below:

Scratch

Another way to access this endless runner is through the Scratch page where, in a similar way to GitHub, you can enjoy the Google dinosaur game without having to give up your internet connection.

Other versions of the dinosaur but without a dinosaur

There are also other alternatives with a slightly different design to Google's Dino T-Rex Runner, although the mechanics of each game are exactly the same as the original, using the same keys that we mentioned above. This time we offer you a couple of alternatives to jump over obstacles, but without driving the already iconic Google dinosaur.

A very simple but extremely dino-addictive game

There is no doubt that the Google Chrome jumping dinosaur game is a tremendously simple game in its conception and mechanics, but it is still really entertaining and addictive. The best thing is that you can try to beat your personal cactus jumping record as many times as you want. And now that you know how you can play Dino T-Rex Runner both online and offline, you have no excuse not to enjoy this entertaining endless runner.
