How to play
- Each player drags their paddle around their half of the table.
- Strike the puck to send it toward the other player's goal.
- First to the target number of goals wins the match.
Tips to win
- Don't just swat — wait a beat and hit the puck as it comes to you for far more power.
- Use the side walls: a banked shot arrives at an angle your opponent can't easily read.
- Keep your paddle slightly back to defend; lunging forward leaves your goal wide open.
