Are you aware of inbuilt hidden Android Game?

I was just travelling in Mumbai local train and a guy sitting near me was playing a game with Lollipop and Android cartoon. Games seems very difficult.

As a Mobile game fan I was curious to know which game it was??? After having close look into his mobile I found that he didn't install it from Play Store or any third part app store. But game is installed in the Android OS.

Here is the way to open the game -
1. Open Settings from Menu
2. Select the last option 'About phone'
3. Tap very fast and continuously on your 4.4.x or 5.x.x 'Android version'. See below image -
 4. Keep tapping or swiping on screen to start the game.

Kitkat 4.4.4
Android Kitkat Game
Lollipop v5.1
Andriod Lollipop Game

CyanogenMod 12.1
Custom ROM CM12.1
Play and put your score in comments. :)
