This is Elastic Man unblocked: the full game loads straight from elasticman.org in your browser, so you can play Elastic Man online free on a school Chromebook, a laptop or a phone with no download and no sign-up.

Elastic Man: a face you can stretch, and why it never gets old

Elastic Man is not a game with levels. It is a single 3D head — big eyes, small mouth, a brown mop of hair — rendered in WebGL with a soft-body skin you can grab anywhere. Pull a cheek and the whole face deforms around your cursor; let go and it wobbles back into shape, with the eyes and hair moving on their own. It was made by David Li for Adult Swim, and that wobble is weirdly satisfying.

The build served on elasticman.org is a copy of the WebGL version, hosted on this domain, so it loads in the page with nothing to install. It runs on a school Chromebook at the Medium quality setting, which is the default, and on phones with a touch screen. Sessions last about as long as a queue or a lesson break — there is nothing to finish, which is exactly why people keep it in a tab.

Getting the best wobble

  1. Pull from the edges: Grab the face near its edge and drag far out to the side. Past a point the whole head turns towards your pointer, then eases back to face you when you let go.
  2. Listen for the slap: The sound is made live from how you pull. Let go of a long stretch and you hear a slap as the skin snaps back past its resting place.
  3. Keep Medium on a Chromebook: If the face moves in steps rather than smoothly after you picked High, switch back to Medium. The wobble looks better at a steady frame rate.

Key features

  • Real soft-body physics: The skin is a simulated mesh, not a canned animation: every pull deforms the face differently and the eyes, hair, nose and ears each react on their own.
  • Touch and mouse: Made for a mouse, and it works with one finger on phones and tablets, which get a lighter version of the face.
  • Loads in the page: The WebGL build is served from this domain: no download, no account, no ads inside the toy.

Pro tip: If there is no sound at first, pull the skin once and let go. Browsers only start audio after you interact with the page, and the game switches its sound on when you release.

Frequently asked questions

Is Elastic Man unblocked at school?

Elastic Man runs in an ordinary browser tab from elasticman.org, with nothing to download or install, so it plays on most school Chromebooks and work computers. If a network filter blocks the site, only that network's administrator can change it.

What is Elastic Man?

A browser toy: a 3D face with a stretchy, physics-simulated skin. You click or touch and drag to pull the face, then let go and watch it wobble back. There is no goal and no score.

Who made Elastic Man?

David Li, an artist who builds interactive pieces for the browser. He made Elastic Man for Adult Swim, which published it in 2017; the head is Morty Smith from Rick and Morty.

Does Elastic Man work on a Chromebook or a phone?

Yes. It needs WebGL and Web Audio, which current browsers have. A Chromebook gets the full version with the Quality switch, set to Medium when the page opens. Phones and tablets get a simpler version with no Quality switch, and you pull with one finger.

Is Elastic Man free?

Yes. A copy of the WebGL build is served from elasticman.org and plays in the page with no download or account.

Why does the face move in steps?

The High quality setting asks more of the graphics chip than an older laptop can give. Switch back to Medium, the default, in the top-right corner.
