Is there any Easter eggs in Android Oreo or the pixel 2?

Google is well known for throwing easter eggs in to its software, particularly with Android versions. For the past two years, there's been a hidden Flappy Bird-style game which you access by heading in to Settings > About Phone then tapping multiple times on the Android version, then tapping repeatedly and long-pressing the Android version logo.

Having changed with Android Nougat to become more complicated, Google returned to more simple roots with Android Oreo.

This year's Easter egg is a simple octopus on screen that you drag around and manipulate. Here's how to get it...

Android O "Oreo" easter egg
Your first step, as already mentioned head to the settings menu, scroll all the way down until you reach "About Phone", tap that and find "Android version". If you press this option multiple times repeatedly, you'll get to a screen showing the Android O logo on your wallpaper.

Repeatedly tap the "O" a few times then press and hold on it and you now you should see a black octopus onscreen. You can now drag the octopus around the screen, pick it up, drop it, mess around with it.
