About Pong Evolved
Pong Evolved updates the original arcade tennis game. Move your paddle to return the ball and score when the rival misses. The ball speeds up with every hit, and the rival gets quicker as levels increase.
How to play
- Drag across the board or press the arrow keys to move your paddle.
- Return the ball to the other side.
- The first player to reach the target score wins the match.
Tips and strategy
- Hit with the edge of the paddle to send the ball at a sharper angle.
- Return to the centre after each hit.
- Sharp angles are harder for the rival to reach.
Levels, stars and XP
Finish a level to earn one to three stars and XP towards your player level. Replay any unlocked level to improve your stars. From level 151 the game enters endless mode, where each level is a remix of an earlier one with fresh colours and a slightly higher difficulty.
