The Higher Lower Game for Windows

A Unique Google Search Engine-Based Game

The Higher Lower Game is a game based on terms searched on Google during a particular year. You get a term or phrase and must find out of it was searched more times compared to another term or phrase.

Game Premise

As aforementioned, The Higher Lower Game revolves around Google search terms. Along with the first phrase, you also get a second term or phrase so that you can compare and determine if the second term had higher or lower Google searches than the first phrase. If you guess the answer right, you win points and get another phrase to compare. And this continues until your answer is incorrect. If you get it wrong, you lose and should start from the beginning.The basic idea is quite simple, but the fine touches here and there add to the gloss of the game. For instance, every single term or phrase is accompanied by a background image, and there are also GIFs running in the background that alter themselves according to your answers.

Insightful

Besides being quite a fun way to pass time, the game also provides you insights into Google’s search history. The popularity of some of these searches could be something you may not have expected at all. Since the game is fairly simple and easy to roll with, you shall find yourself hitting the play button many times during a session. Google’s repository is massive and it’s almost impossible for any living human to know the answers beforehand. In other words, you would resort to lot of “educated” guesswork and go home having learnt something new.
