Microsoft Edge browser adds Surf games that let you play in offline mode. But the page hasn’t direct access and it is hidden so you might not play the camouflaged game on the browser. Microsoft introduced the game getting inspiration from Old Skifree where you need to cross zigzag obstacles, avoid krakens and collect hearts to extend life. This is an amazing source of entertainment since you have various modes, levels, and trials even when your internet is down too.
With the release of Microsoft Edge version 83.0.478.37 in the stable ring, the tech giant has opened this game for everyone using the browser. In the past, only the users from Canary, Dev, and Beta preview versions of the Edge browser could enjoy playing this. When you are offline or out of network, you just need to follow a link in the browser and start playing. With this latest inclusion, Microsoft is trying to make the Chromium-based Edge browser to standout as a strong contender to other browsers.
