Pong Duel
Rally against the computer. Defend your side and score when it misses. First to 7 wins.
Pong Duel is a modern take on the game that started it all — a fast, clean rally against the computer. You guard your side of the table with a single paddle and try to slip the ball past the AI. It is pure reflex and angle-reading, and the escalating speed keeps each point on a knife's edge.
How to play
Move your paddle on the left side with the mouse, a vertical swipe, or the ↑ ↓ arrow keys. Keep the ball from getting past you and knock it back so the computer misses. Each score counts, and the first side to reach 7 points wins the match.
Tips
- Strike the ball with the edge of your paddle to send it back at a sharp angle the AI struggles to reach.
- The ball speeds up after every hit, so start centering your paddle early to react to faster returns.
- Aim your returns away from where the computer's paddle currently sits rather than straight back.
- Stay near the middle when the ball is on the far side so you can cover either high or low returns.
