Lots of mobile companies like to have fun for April Fools’ Day, and Google is no different.
Google today made a couple of April Fools’ Day jokes. The first is Google Gnome, an assistant that lives in your yard and helps with outdoor (and only outdoor) tasks. For example, the Gnome can turn your hose on and off or tell you which direction the wind is blowing.
You can see a video starring Google Gnome above, and Google even went so far as to create a special page for Gnome on its online store.
Google’s other gag today is Ms. Pac-Maps, which lets you play Ms. Pac-Man using Google Maps on Android, iOS, and the desktop. On the Android and iOS maps, you should see a Ms. Pac-Maps icon that you can press to begin chomping power pellets and chasing ghosts. On the desktop, you can click the Ms. Pac-Maps button at the bottom left.
If you sign in before playing Ms. Pac-Maps, you can save your top score on a leaderboard.
