How to play Googles first multiplayer, interactive Halloween 2018 Doodle game

Google is celebrating Halloween 2018 with its first ever interactive, multiplayer Google Doodle game called Trick-or-Treat: The Great Ghoul Duel! The Halloween themed game is hosted on Google’s Cloud platform and players around the world can team up randomly and join a match or host their own game with up to seven friends and family members via a custom invitation link. In the game, you play as a Green or a Purple Ghost and your job is to collect souls. Spooky music plays out as you dash to collect as many souls or spirit flames as you can and deposit them to your base. Players can also steal souls from other members of the opposing team and gain special ghostly powers like speed boosts, night vision and more. Players can share personal superlatives awarded to them at the end of the match based on their performances. Google implemented this special Halloween Doodle game with the help of Open Match, a highly-scalable, open source matchmaking framework cofounded by Google Cloud and Unity. Open Match is designed to allow game developers to reuse a common matchmaker framework. It includes three core components: a frontend API for game clients, a backend API for game servers, and an orchestrator that runs game-specific custom matchmaking logic. But that’s TMI for Halloween so head on over here to play Google’s Trick-or-Treat: The Great Ghoul Duel!

Well… besides the console itself (and the manuals), you get: DualSense controller USB Type-C charging cable for the controller HDMI 2.1 cable Power cable for the console (no bulky adapter/box) Plastic stand Now the plastic stand is used if you place the console on its side. As there is no flat surface on either side of the console, the stand will ensure that it remains still. But you can also place it when propping up the console vertically. However, it does seem like the PS5 can stand on its own vertically if need be. IGN’s unboxing video gives you a good idea of how to place the stand. All of the unboxing videos mention the size of the console because it is pr...
