Google launched a new game called “Today’s Teaser” in the Discover section of its app. But if you’re expecting the kind of game you’ll get with the New York Times‘ Connections or Wordle, you might be disappointed.
The “game” is more just Google’s version of the classic “would you rather.” Basically, it asks you a question, and you answer. Once you choose your preference, then the world’s results are revealed. Today, for instance, in honor of the Olympics’ gymnastics competition, the question was, “Would you rather cartwheel everywhere you need to go or somersault everywhere you need to go?”
You can most easily play “Today’s Teaser” by pulling up the Google app on your phone. It’ll appear as a widget near other useful info, like the weather report or news you might be interested in. It’ll look something like this:

Once you pop open the teaser, you’ll answer the question and see the results. For what it’s worth, I voted for cartwheeling.
Cartwheeling just seems easier.

If you want to access the game directly, you can do so, but it does seem like a fun little Easter Egg for folks who use the Google app. So next time you search for something, maybe take a second to see if your opinion aligns with the rest of the world.
