Instagram is a trendy social media platform where users and content creators alike can share photos and videos with their followers and fans. Recently there has been a new feature that many Instagram users have been discussing. There is a new hidden emoji game that you can play within the Instagram app itself. Why has the new game suddenly become the talk of town and how do you play it?
Play Hidden Emoji Game on Instagram
This is not the first time Meta has hidden a new game inside its apps. Many years ago, Meta had also hidden a few games that you could play within the Facebook Messenger app such as Football and Basketball. Those in-app games were then taken away and used Facebook Messenger. Now that Meta has brought it into Instagram, Let’s take a look at how you can access and play this game.
Access Instagram’s Emoji Game
Now, let’s take a look at the steps that you need to follow to get access to Instagram’s new hidden emoji game that everyone is talking about.
- Make sure you have the latest version of the Instagram app on your Android or iOS smartphone.
- It doesn’t matter if you are running the final build or the beta build of the app.
- Now, launch the Instagram app and tap on the Messages icon present at the top right corner.
- Now, select any conversation to open the chat screen.
- All you need to do is send any single emoji in the chat.
- Once you have sent the emoji, tap once on the emoji, and a screen will appear.
- A game of Pong will now begin.
- Simply move the pill at the bottom to prevent the emoji from falling to the end of the screen.
- As you play through, the game gets a bit faster and it will be hard to catch the emoji.
How to Get High Scores
The trajectory of the game is quite simple. Each time it turns slightly left or right depending on its initial direction.
If the emoji lands a second time to the left, shift the pill bar a little to the left each time until the emoji completes that direction, and after covering the left side, the momentum will shift to right side or vice versa.
So all you need to do is figure out its trajectory in the first two or three rotation and you will catch to its speed without much effort.
And there you have it, a fun little game of pong that you can play on Instagram using any emoji of your choice. Now, is this game good? Yes, it is. Is it fun? It sure is. Should you tell your friends about this new hidden Instagram game? Absolutely.
This fun Instagram game can keep track of your high scores and will follow through no matter what emoji you use to activate the game or in whose DM’s you’ve sent the emoji to start the game. As you progress through the level, the background of the game starts to get darker.
