5. Zamboni - The Icy Adventure


Google launched this mini game on the occasion of Frank Zamboni's 112th birthday. Zamboni is credited as the inventor of the ice resurfacing machine which is named after him.

The aim of this game is to resurface ice which is degraded by skaters in every level. The game depicts use of the Zamboni ice resurfacing machine and is a very interesting mini-game with some high quality effects like the sliding in ice.

This game gets the 5th spot for the special banana peel-off that makes your Zamboni out of control!... for just about a second.

Taking the 4th spot is the minigame launched in Asian countries on 14th February, bu it was meant to celebrate the Qixi festival which depicts a love-story. The aim of the game is to make a bridge of the legendary birds so that the two lovers can unite.

3. PAC-MAN


I guess you would have already played PAC-MAN once in your life before seeing this doodle. This doodle cum game was launched on the 30th anniversary of PAC-MAN and its objective was the same as the original pac-man, ie to eat fruits and stay away from ghosts.

And now comes my favorite Google Doodle Game...

1. Rubik's Cube Doodle


Just today ie 19th May 2014, Google launched this doodle game to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Rubik's Cube. The game is an online version of a 3x3x3 Rubik's cube with no variations compared to the original game and so its fun to solve the online version of Rubik's cube.

The thing that makes this doodle my favorite is that it can be considered the hardest of all doodle games considering that not everyone can solve a regular Rubik's cube. Also on completion you get to see a success page with the signatures of Larry Page, one of the founders of Google and Erno Rubik, the inventor of Rubik's cube. Here is what I got after completing the game:

It takes time getting accustomed to the controls especially the rotation in the cube as its in 3D but once you get accustomed its a fun trying to solve it. I took 15 minutes in my first try and got it in 10 minutes the second time.
