As the game progresses, the speed of play gradually increases until the user hits an obstacle, prompting an instant game over. Pressing space, ↑, or tapping the dinosaur on mobile devices will cause the dinosaur to "jump", while pressing the ↓ key will cause the dinosaur to "duck". ĭuring the game, the Lonely T-Rex continuously moves from left to right across a black-and-white desert landscape, with the player attempting to avoid oncoming obstacles such as cacti and Pteranodons by jumping or ducking. Additionally, the game can be accessed by inputting chrome://dino or chrome://network-error/-106 into the Omnibox. The game can then be launched either by pressing space or ↑ on desktop, or by tapping the dinosaur on Android or iOS mobile devices.
