Gameplay of this Windows 8 Ping Pong game app:
The gameplay of this Windows 8 pong game app is very simple and straightforward. There are no twist and turns, or any kind of hard and fast rules. All you have to do is, simply hit the ball, when it comes to your end. And always try to hit the ball in such a way that your opponent misses the ball. Each player who makes the opponent miss the ball gets one point for doing so. The game continues until one of the player makes 5 points.
One interesting thing to note here is that the ball’s speed increases as the game progresses, that is if none of the player misses the ball, then the ball speed keeps rising. This makes the game more interesting and fun. As you’ll try to your level best to not to miss the ball, making your eye roll here and there. The best thing that I liked about this Windows 8 pong game app is it graphics. To give a futuristic stage like graphic, the flat boards that each player has on their side, and the ball that both player hit, glows like neon! Even the boundaries have the neon glow effect. Something like The “Tron” movie has.
Every time the ball gets hit, the ball glows more. Now, that’s a pretty cool effect.
When you launch the app, you get the Main Screen. Choose the difficulty level between: EASY, MEDIUM, and HARD. Then, if you are playing against the computer click on 1 Player, and if you want to challenge your friend, then click on 2 Players. Once you click on any of these, you’ll be directed to Game screen. Simply click anywhere on the screen to start the game. You have to use mouse or the up and down keys to move your board. And if you are playing with a friend, then, the second player have to use the A and Z keys. That’s pretty much it about the game.

Final Verdict:
HOLO PING PONG surely is a good free Windows 8 pong game app. It is smooth, totally functional, and addictive. I spent a lot of time playing the game.
