How to play Pong

  1. Move your paddle at the bottom with the left and right arrows or the yellow buttons.
  2. Press Space, Up or the blue button to serve.
  3. Score a point when the computer misses. Five points wins the round, the game speeds up and you get a life back.
  4. Every point the computer wins costs one of your three lives. Lose them all and the game is over. Your total points are your score.
  5. Before you press start, Up picks the starting level and Down the speed, from 1 to 10. Higher speeds score more points. Left and Right switch to the previous or next game.

About this game

Pong is the oldest video game most people can name, and it fits the brick handheld perfectly. The computer paddle reacts late and sometimes hesitates for a whole rally, so early rounds are winnable. From about level five it gets sharp. Hit the ball with the edge of your paddle to send it off at an angle, or with the middle to fire it straight. The computer aims for whichever side you are not on, so keep moving.
