Why we picked this?

Anti Pong takes the classic game of Pong in a new direction. Instead of trying to hit the ball with your paddle, your job is to avoid it at all costs. Every ball that hits your paddle will chip away at its bricks. The last player standing wins. You’re able to play against a machine learning opponent or another player locally. Anti Pong also includes haptic feedback, and three difficulty modes.

You want to play something completely original.

You prefer games where you can compete with other players online. This one is only local.
