Pipe Pong

Pong, except your paddle is a 3×7 grid of pipes. When the ball comes your way it drops into your front row, and you have to rotate tubes to route it back out at your opponent. Hit a dead end and you lose the point.

How to play

• Tap a tube to rotate it 90°. You can rotate mid-rally, just not the tube the ball is in.
• Swipe across a row to re-roll all seven tubes. It’s your escape hatch when you’re stuck, with a 7-second cooldown.
• Longer paths return the ball faster. Snake it through more tubes for a speed boost.
• Pipes wear out. Every pass cracks a tube, and after five cracks it breaks for the rest of the point.
• First to 5 wins.

The AI plays by the same rules you do: it has a reaction delay and a limit on how fast it can tap.
