Doodle Champion Island Games sport table tennis
Doodle Champion Island Games is a 2021 role-playing browser game developed by Google in partnership with Studio 4°C. The game acted as an interactive Google Doodle in celebration of the 2020 Summer Olympics and 2020 Summer Paralympics as well as Japanese folklore and culture. The story follows Lucky the Ninja Cat as she competes in sport events across Champion Island to become the champion of the island, whilst completing multiple side quests by helping people who are in need. The Doodle was removed on 6 September 2021 by Google but can still be played in Google Doodle archives.
The game features seven different mini-games themed around sports that appeared at the Olympics, including table tennis, skateboarding, archery, rugby, artistic swimming, sport climbing, and marathon.Plot
At the start of the game, Lucky arrives by boat at Champion Island, a place where athletes from around the globe compete with each other. She is then confronted by two Komainu, who challenges her to a match of Table Tennis to test her skills. Once Lucky beats the pair, they believe her to be The Chosen One and tell her of the seven champions of the island and that beating them would restore order to the island and make her the Island Champion.
Lucky can then choose the order to compete against the champions and beating each champion will earn her one of seven Sacred Scrolls. These are:The Kijimuna, a tribe that hosts marathons along a beach.
The Tengu, who masters table tennis in a village now abandoned in a bamboo forest.
Princess Oto-hime and Urashima Taro, who compete in artistic swimming underwater.
Yoichi, master of archery near the island's lotus pond.
The Oni, a group of trolls who are champions of the island's rugby. In this event, Lucky is aided by Momotaro and his friends.
Fukuro, an owl who sits at the top of the island's mountain and observes the Climbing event.
Tanuki, master of the Skateboarding event taking place in Tanooki City.After obtaining all seven Sacred Scrolls and beating all the champions of the island, a large cherry blossom tree bursts into bloom in the center of the island, and falling petals rain over the island. The people of the island then congratulate Lucky on becoming the Island Champion.
If Lucky collects 23 of the 24 trophies, selecting the podium with no trophy reads the message "don't trust the bird", activating the final side quest. Lucky is then tasked with finding the true trophy master, who is revealed to be Momo, the black cat from Magic Cat Academy, the Google Doodle for Halloween 2016 and 2020. This changed when the Paralympics made their debut, and anyone who has completed the 22 previous side quests and plays the Paralympic game without starting afresh can complete the 23rd and 24th quests without losing history of the last quest.
