You can play ‘Where’s Waldo’ on Google Maps for the rest of the week

Earlier in March, Google Maps commemorated Mario Day by integrating Mario into Maps. They’re doing the same thing again this time but as an extension of their April Fool’s Day prank.

You’ll be given the opportunity to not just search for him but his friends as well. Once you’ve located him or all of his friends, you’ll be taken to a different level on another part of the planet. Google says there’s even a Google Assistant component to this so you can try asking “Where’s Waldo?” on your Assistant-supported device and see what happens.

Google was seen testing this feature out last fall but it looks like it’s being released to more users now.
