Tetris

M-x tetris

Zone

M-x zone M-x zone-mode

Doctor

M-x doctor

Butterfly Mode

M-x butterfly2

Final Words

This was a short post (and not particularly instructive I guess), but I hope you’ve enjoyed it. Share in the comments section any Emacs easter eggs you know of, that I haven’t mentioned.
