Google's "Thanos Snap" Easter Egg

The Thanos Snap Easter egg was launched by Google in April 2019, coinciding with the release of the movie "Avengers: Endgame." This interactive feature allowed users to experience the infamous snap by searching specific keywords.

To discover the Easter egg, users had to search for the term "Thanos". Upon searching, a small golden gauntlet icon would appear in the search results, typically on the right side of the screen, next to Thanos' name in the knowledge panel.

Upon clicking the gauntlet icon, the animation of Thanos's snap would start. Half of the search results would then gradually disintegrate into dust, simulating the events in "Avengers: Infinity War." The number of search results would decrease, and the text would turn into a pile of ash. The animation would be accompanied by the iconic sound effect of Thanos snapping his fingers.

The Easter egg was a creative and engaging tribute to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and it was available on both desktop and mobile devices. It was designed to be a fun and surprising feature for users, reflecting the dramatic events of the Avengers movies.

The Thanos Snap Easter egg was highly popular among fans and generated significant attention on social media. Many users shared their experience of the disintegration animation on various platforms, celebrating the unique interactive feature. The Easter egg also acted as a promotional tool for "Avengers: Endgame", creating buzz around the movie's release.

The feature was praised for its attention to detail and creative implementation. The seamless animation of the search results turning to dust captured the essence of Thanos's snap, providing an immersive experience for the users.

Google officially removed the Thanos Snap Easter egg in 2020, a year after its launch. The removal was part of Google's usual practice of updating its Easter eggs and special features. Despite the removal, the Easter egg was preserved by platforms like elgooG, ensuring that fans could still access it.
