Game Overview

Pong is a simple yet addictive two-player game created by Allan Alcorn, an engineer working at Atari, Inc. Pong was released as an arcade game in 1972, making it one of the earliest video games ever created.. The objective is straightforward: use your tennis racket to bounce the ball back and forth, competing against your opponent. The first player to miss the ball loses a point. The game continues until one player reaches the set score or until you decide it's time to stop. It's a great way to test your reflexes and have a blast with a timeless classic.
