Android Marshmallow Easter Egg Is A Pillowy Flappy-Droid

Android Lollipop's Easter Egg was a flappy-bird clone with a tiny Android in place of the flier – now he's back, in Marshmallow form. This new version of the flappy-droid game appears when a user heads to their Android 6.0 Marshmallow's settings panel, goes to System, hits the About Tablet button, and taps furiously on the Android version. From there, a giant marshmallow appears inside a colored circle. Tapping and holding on this icon will allow you to move forward into the game.

This new version of the game gives a hint about multiplayer Android action. Not that we couldn't connect multiple players to Android device-based games before, but the ability to add multiple players in a game that's hidden from view inside the operating system – that's just wild.
