It would seem that the Google engineers are getting extra creative. They just shared they will be releasing a GoogleMaps based game that will be coming to Google+ very soon. The game is a marble-maze style game that uses the reality of GoogleMaps as its "playground". Here's a quote from the TalkAndroid article with some more details:

The game is based off a unique technology created by the Google Maps development team. The technology— called WebGL– features a unique 3D engine powering the graphics. What’s special about the technology is it can create 3D web graphics you can see without having to install additional drivers or software.

You can check out the promo video of the game above. What do you guys think?

I think a driving game using streetview data would be awesome. This marble game...not so much.
