PPong

Multiplayer arena pong: defend your side, outlast the arena.

PPong is a free pong game for up to eight players at once, published by Niko Games. Every player guards one side of the arena with a paddle; let the ball past and you lose a life. The last player standing wins.

Play PPong
A six-player PPong match: a hexagonal arena with a coloured paddle on each side, player portraits and lives around it, and two power-up tokens on the felt
Six players, one ball. Every side of the arena is somebody's goal.

What you can do

How to play

Each player owns one side of the arena. Move your paddle along it and send the ball back; every ball that gets past you costs a life, and you start with four. When a player runs out of lives the arena changes shape around the players who are left, so a match that starts as an octagon can end as a duel.

Power-ups

Tokens appear in the arena during a rally. Drive the ball through one and it goes to whoever touched the ball last.

Knocked out? Become a trickster

Losing your last life doesn't end your match. You stay in as a trickster and drop hazards into the arena to trouble the players still standing:

A hazard shows where it will land a moment before it is live, so players can always see it coming. On a computer, click the arena to drop one and press 1, 2 or 3 to pick which; on a phone, tap a hazard to arm it, then tap the arena.

Questions

Is PPong free?

Yes. The game is paid for by ads, which are shown on the menus and sometimes between matches — never while you are playing a match. Nothing in the game is sold for real money.

Do I need an account?

No. A guest account is made for you the first time you play. Signing in with Google is optional.

How many players can play?

From two up to eight in one arena. In a quick match, bots fill empty seats when few people are online.

Can I play with friends?

Yes: create a room, then send your friends its code or the link from COPY LINK.

Your account and Google sign-in

The game creates a guest account for you automatically the first time you play, so your coins and progress are saved without signing in. Signing in with Google is optional: it links that progress to your Google account so you can keep it on another device. The game uses your Google account only to sign you in, and keeps your email address with your game account. You can delete your account at any time from your profile (DELETE ACCOUNT).
