Read full description

You're tired of tap-and-swipe controls? You love the game classic Pong? You can't walk past a pinball machine? Then you should definitely try PAPONG 3D Pong! # Highscore mode: Compare your skills with players all over the world # Challenge mode: Master all 54 levels # Rich sound effects (use headphones!) ######################### How to play PAPONG - 3D Pong? ######################### In the foreground you see the semi-transparent PAPONG Board. This motion sensor controlled board follows exactly the motions of your device. Use the PAPONG Board as your racket and hit the ball against the back wall. Watch out for the bounce! The PAPONG Board itself is not so bouncy but has an extreme acceleration. Hence you reach the highest speed of the ball not by hitting it hard but by stopping and flinging the ball. Think of the PAPONG Board more as a catapult than as a tennis racket! ######### Please note ######### Be careful with your phone! Controls are very sensitive, there is no need to push the device hard. Have fun!
