How to Play Google’s Floating Cloud Game in 2026

Update (July 2026): We retested the Floating Cloud game using the latest version of the Google app but could no longer access it. Instead of showing the game, Google now displays only a standard “No internet connection” message. If the original game isn’t available on your device, you can still play a browser-hosted version using the workaround below.

Google’s Floating Cloud game was a hidden Easter egg that appeared in the Google app whenever you searched without an internet connection. Similar to Chrome’s offline Dinosaur game, it offered a fun way to pass the time while waiting to get back online.

Although the original game no longer appears for most users, you can still experience the same gameplay using the browser-based method below.

How to play the Floating Cloud game online

Although Google’s original offline game no longer appears for most users, you can still play a browser-hosted version that offers the same gameplay experience.

To play the floating cloud game online:

1. Open Floaty Cloud Google in a browser on your phone or computer.
2. Tap Run Game.
3. Tap anywhere on the screen to control the cloud and start playing.

The gameplay, controls, and graphics closely match the original Floating Cloud game.

Note: This version is hosted by MOUTHNATION Indie Games and isn’t an official Google game or feature.

How to play Google’s original Floating Cloud game (if available)

The original Floating Cloud game appeared only when the Google app detected that your phone was offline. If Google still enables the Easter egg on your device, you can try the steps below.

1. Open the Google app or use the Google Search widget on your Android phone.
2. Turn off both Wi-Fi and mobile data.
3. Search for anything.
4. If the Floating Cloud Easter egg appears, tap the Play button next to the animation to launch the game.

When the Easter egg was available, Google displayed a random animated character instead of the standard offline message.

Tapping the Play button launched the game in full-screen mode, where you controlled the cloud by tapping anywhere on the screen.

How the Floating Cloud game works

You control a smiling white cloud carrying a yellow umbrella. Tap the screen to avoid birds, storm clouds, and other obstacles while trying to survive for as long as possible.

You’ll also encounter dark rain clouds drifting upward, making it harder to avoid obstacles. A collision with any obstacle ends the game.

Even after crashing, the cheerful cloud waves goodbye with a smile and its umbrella in hand. Unlike Chrome’s Dinosaur game, the Floating Cloud game doesn’t include sound effects.

Once your run ends, you can tap the Replay button to start another game or return to the search screen.
