Pong! is collection of three Pong-style games: tennis, hockey and squash and features an additional practice mode. All game modes are for two players and require the players to bounce a ball back and forth. There are four different difficulty settings that determine the size of the paddles and the speed of the ball. The first player that earns fifteen points wins any of the games, or when the space-bar is pressed the game ends when the next point is made.

Tennis functions as the original Pong game, while Squash has players standing on the same side of the field bouncing a ball towards each other via a wall. In Hockey both players have two paddles, an offensive and defensive one. The ball must also be played towards a goal instead of a general side of the screen. [source:mobygames]
