【Watch In the Morning of La Petite Mort Online】

How much time do Watch In the Morning of La Petite Mort OnlineGoogle engineers spend devising elaborate Easter eggs as opposed to actually doing what they're supposed to? We're guessing it's a fair amount, as Google's myriad services and products hold an impressive amount of hidden treasures which don't serve any other purpose except to amuse.

If you aren't familiar with text adventures, they're an ancient type of game which gives you text descriptions and reacts to typed commands such as "eat bread" or "flip switch." This particular game turns you into a big letter G, who's tasked with finding the rest of the letters in "Google".

The game is fairly simple but not completely without depth, which you will realize when you first grab a map and start exploring.
