When a Google Doodle becomes your favorite RPG of the year, you know something magical's going on. Doodle Champion Island Games isn’t just another celebration of the Olympics, it’s a full-fledged adventure soaked in Japanese folklore, pixel-perfect charm, and sport-fueled fun.
You play as Lucky, a calico feline with Olympic dreams and a mean table tennis backhand. After arriving on Champion Island, Lucky is challenged by 7 legendary champions: a skateboard-shredding tanuki, arrow-slinging Yoichi, and even oni that tackle in chaotic rugby matches. Whether you're swimming with sea princesses, climbing snowy mountains, or dodging forest spirits in a marathon, every mini-game offers a unique twist across this interactive island.
Created by Studio 4°C in collaboration with Google, with animation support from OLM Asia and Qixie Studio, this Google Doodle is more than a nostalgia trip, it's a love letter to sport, culture, and pixel art. Choose your team, compete for leaderboard glory, and discover the secrets beneath the sakura trees and beyond the stone guardians.
Whether you're vibing in Tanooki City or helping townsfolk collect lost items, Lucky’s quest to defeat the champions and complete the story is one for the legends.
And yes… you’re probably feline lucky.
