Ads upon ads upon ads
Google is just a colorful façade. The insides of this bloated monstrosity is filled with ads and sellable user data. It needs to be put out of its misery.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/XPGgTy5YJ-g

Hey! I had forgotten about this little game. thanks for the reminder.
Dont know if you'll like what you will see if you decide to try it again, as another users famous comment stated, "enshittification spares no one" is at full play in two dots also.
