How to play Microsoft Edge browsing game? – News from free internet users

Do you remember SkiFree? Microsoft beats the hidden dinosaur game in Google Chrome. Microsoft Edge has a secret browsing game that works offline. It’s SkiFree with a new coat of paint, replacing the Yetis with the Kraken. It was added in Microsoft Edge 83, released in May 2020.

To access the game, type edge://surf in the Edge address bar and hit Enter. The game will be loaded immediately. The address part “edge://” means that it is an internal page that is contained within the Microsoft Edge app itself.

You will see the character selection screen. Use the left and right arrow keys and the space bar to select a character and start playing.

Access to the secret SkiFree-style game Microsoft Edge.

Use the arrow keys to control your character and the space bar to pause. The left and right switches allow you to go from left to right, the top switch stops the surfer and the bottom switch resumes surfing. Press the “f” key to use the boost booster – you can get one at the start of the game. It looks like a green bolt of lightning.

Just like in the classic SkiFree, your goal is to go as far as you can. The game calculates the distance traveled in the current run at the top of the window. It starts with three hearts. With every collision you lose heart. When you lose all your hearts, your race ends and the game shows you how far you have come.

The game even supports Xbox consoles.

This game even supports the rumble function of your console!

SkiFree . Back

This game is different from SkiFree of course. Instead of skiing, you surf. Instead of dribbling the Yeti, you can dodge the sea monsters. But the gameplay is familiar enough, and anyone who remembers playing Microsoft SkiFree in the ’90s should find a dose of nostalgia.

This game may seem a little silly, but it is more comprehensive than the dinosaur game in Google Chrome. Like the popular dinosaur game in Chrome, it works completely offline. If your internet goes out and you want to take a few minutes, you can always download the browsing game and play it completely offline.
