About the game

What you do in a play session

Pig Pong mixes the classic fun of ping‑pong with the silliness of plastic pigs. Two teams line up on opposite sides of a tiny net, each with a set of squeaky pig figures that act like bellows. The goal is to squeeze the pigs at the same time, blowing a lightweight "puff" ball across the net. If the puff lands on the opponent's side, the shooting team scores a point. The ball is then placed on a small serving trough on the net, and on the count of "oink" everyone blows again. First to 11 points wins.

The game comes with a bright net, two pig‑shaped scoring tokens, a serving trough, six puff balls and four plastic pigs. Rules are almost nonexistent: line up, squeeze, count points, repeat. A round lasts only a few seconds, so a full match fits in 10‑15 minutes – perfect for a quick break or a party filler.

Pig Pong shines through its physical interaction and team cooperation. While there’s no deep strategy, synchronizing your team’s squeeze can tip the balance, adding a light tactical layer. The components are safe and colorful, appealing to kids, yet the competitive sprint keeps adults laughing. It’s a great pick for family gatherings, game‑night warm‑ups, or any casual setting where you want fast, noisy fun.
