Who doesn't love the classic Snake Game? Google's version, playable right in your browser, challenges you to gobble up as much fruit as you can. The more fruit you eat, the longer your snake grows. Navigate carefully to avoid hitting your own body or the walls. If you manage to fill the entire screen with your snake, you'll emerge victorious!
Solitaire

Keep an eye on the timer, as speed can boost your score. It's one of the more demanding Google games, so patience and strategy are key.

Enjoy the timeless thrill of Pac-Man, available for free on Google. This fast-paced game has you dodging ghosts while munching on yellow dots.
