Did you know there’s a pinball game hidden in Word? Or a flight simulator in Excel? It’s true! Many everyday software programs include hidden developer jokes, greetings, photos, and even mini-games—called Easter Eggs—triggered by bizarre combinations of inputs.

This book is the first-ever collection of these digital surprises. It contains hundreds of step-by-step instructions to uncover Easter Eggs in PC software from Access to Works, as well as in PC and PlayStation games. Watch heroes undress at the press of a button or headless bikers dominate the track!

Bonus Sections reveal hidden:

Tracks on music CDs

Secrets on DVDs

A Tetris game inside a TV remote

Developer names on cell phone displays

Easter eggs in the Apple Newton and early search engines

Almost all Easter Eggs have been verified, rated for entertainment value, and illustrated with screenshots. In many cases, demo versions are available online, so you can experience the fun even without owning the full software.
