2016 Doodle Fruit Games - Day 16
This Doodle’s Key Themes
Today marks the 16th day of the 2016 Doodle Fruit Games! We’re journeying to an otherwise unassuming fruit stand in Rio where produce from all over the market competes for the title of freshest fruit. To play along, get the latest Google app on Android or iOS, and tap the Doodle. Learn more at g.co/fruit and let the games begin!
And now, a report from the field covering Day 16 of the action…
In the history of the Fruit Games, there have never been two competitors more evenly paired in table tennis. “This match could be a real corker,” enthused a blushing fan. Others have expressed grape expectations that these two rivals will bring out the best in each other. Green Grape is known for serving up extra crisp attacks that can leave an opponent with a bad aftertaste. Red Grape is well-regarded for crushing returns that can fluster and bewilder the best in the bunch. Luckily this complex and powerful match up is overseen by an earthy and balanced judge who’s laser-like focus will ensure the game goes smoothly.
Keep coming back for all the action from the 2016 Doodle Fruit Games!
