There was a Flappy Bird-type game in Android 5.0 Lollipop and a similar type of game in Android 6.0 Marshmallow with different graphics. Then Android 7.0 Nougat had the secret cat collecting game which is referred to as Neko Android. It’s the one Easter Egg that I used regularly during my Nougat run before upgrading to Oreo. The Neko Android cat dish still shows up in my shade since upgrading, but it doesn’t work anymore. I’m able to add an item to the dish, but the cats don’t take the bait. Some users have received a message: “Android Easter Egg has stopped”. But I digress…on to the new one. Note: For this example, I’m on a stock version of Oreo running on a Nexus 6P. The following steps may vary a bit depending on the device you have.

Unlock the Android 8.0 Oreo Easter Egg

As I mentioned earlier, my favorite Android Easter egg so far has been the cat collecting game. This Octopus gem doesn’t do much (unless I’m missing something). You can tap the back button and tap the O logo and each time you do it the octopus will be a different size. Still, it’s still cool to uncover and show your friends. If you are a regular Android user, what is your favorite Easter egg so far? Leave a comment below and let us know. Thanks for the new Octo news… I am currently running Android 7.0 on a GS7. I love playing my Android Neko Cat game. I want to wipe my phone. Will my game come back? Is there a way to save my cats? I feel like I have over 500. I know…I’m wasting my life… Cheers I tried taping the octopus head like someone else suggested but it didn’t look like the eyes were squinting or anything. While tapping the head the octopus keeps moving making it hard to see the eyes. The lack of imagination with the 8.0 Easter Egg makes me wonder if a kid thought of the idea or an adult with no imagination. Comment Name * Email *
