Anyone know anything about this?

Ooo...that's interesting. I feel like giving the answer takes away some of the mystery...

If you can find the "Page Not Found" page, you're one step closer 🙂

(If you really want to know, here's a spoiler...)

Press "space" on the Page Not Found page.

Dear @bbennett2,

Why I cannot play the Hidden Game in canvas? I have done the same as u instructed but when I pressed "Space bar", nothing happened (Figure below). I love Canvas LMS a lot and I want to share this game to my students. I would be very grateful for your help :))))

Many thanks, 

Howard,

@thomas_acker , @fisherjames8 , @117623559917064 , @HowardLekhac , and @bbennett2 ...

As far as I can tell, Instructure implemented an option for Canvas administrators to enable/disable the hidden game in their own school Canvas environments.  This was a change made on October 26, 2022 ... which is detailed in the Canvas Deploy Notes (2022-10-26) - Instructure Community (canvaslms.com).

This is also now documented in How do I set details for an account? - Instructure Community (canvaslms.com).  If you take a look at the section on "View Features" (currently about half-way down the page), it shows a check-box for Canvas admins (#11 in the screenshot) where it can be enabled/disabled.

So, if you are at a 404 error page and are not able to play either of the hidden games...this is probably why.

Hope this helps in some way.
