Google's back with another game-oriented doodle in honor of the Summer Olympics. Anyone playing it?

gaia_demonduck Which team did you go with? How did you decide? I can't recall... I might've gone with green because, well obvs, fave color. Or I might've gone with whatever my fave animal of the bunch was... Did they have a fox?

gaia_zombieduck Which sport are you the best at? The worst at?
(Archery, Artistic Swimming, Skateboarding, Climbing, Table Tennis, Rugby, Marathon) I didn't get through the whole game before giving up, but I was absolute a** at Rugby, which I think is why I quit? LOL. Also the realization that it was very long and I wasn't going to get all the way through it before I had to leave work and I didn't think there was any way to save my progress.

gaia_merduck Favorite NPC to interact with? Uhh... I liked the fish... thing? I think? There was a fish thing, right? Nothing was terribly memorable. >_>;;

gaia_duck Anything else you want to share... or if you need help completing a trophy mission. I'm a big "screw Google" proponent, and I think it's kind of unfair that they can just abuse their internet presence to release a whole game that they just shat out when no one asked for it. Sure, the spirit of it was in good conscience I suppose, but yeah. I played it because I was really bored at work, and wouldn't have otherwise. Maybe it was a secret plot to ruin productivity of other competing companies because their employees would be busy playing. ninja

There was Ushi the bull (Team Blue), Karasu the black bird (Team Red), Inari the fox (Team Yellow), and Kappa the frog (Team Green).

As long as you are using the same computer, it'll keep your progress each time you go back in. Even though the original event has already come and passed since the Olympics are over now, you are still able to go back and play it. Just like all of the previous doodle games Google has done over the years.

Oh yeah I definitely went with the Yellow Fox then, haha.

And ahh, good ol' cookies. Honestly I hadn't played any Google games until this one. Didn't know they existed.
