Apart from web searches, Google Chrome has a few tricks up its sleeve for curious minds. Here are some of our favourite Google tricks.

Barrel Roll

Type in, ''Do a barrel roll'' in the search box and Google does the rest. The page does a spin and makes you kinda feel like being roller.

Google Gravity

Once you see gravity you already know where this is headed. The Google homepage loses gravity and everything falls down to the bottom. You can throw, move or bounce every icon or even the Google search box once this trick is activated. This trick is especially fun when you want to see the screen icons floating around.

Thanos

Avengers fans have a treat in store. Marvel's fictional character Thanos gives us the ''Snap''. The Gauntlet that he possesses makes the Google page fade into dust when you click on the gauntlet. Click it twice and it returns everything that disappeared a few seconds ago.

Google Pacman

Kids and teenager fans of the epic arcade game Pac Man have a treat in store. Type in ''google pacman'' and click 'I'm feeling lucky' right after. Players get to play the game as many times as they wish to.

Google Guitar

Music is also an option - type in ''google guitar'' and then click 'I'm feeling lucky'. There you have your own online guitar to use when it takes your fancy.
