Its actually kinda sucky, but kind of funny.

All we need now is one to run from within a unix based terminal :)

    That's bizarre-but I could image playing that for hours.

    Excellent, the left paddle has needed a leader like you for a long time. With your help, we may just be able to destroy the evil enemy that is the left paddle.

    Uhm... Okay?

    *as the left paddle, commits suicide*

    I'd totally be celebrating my victory right now if I wasn't dead.

    But in all seriousness, that was boring. All you have to do is click the right answer enough times and you get a point.

    That game is hard, man. I got my ass kicked.
    Score:
    You: 14
    Him: 60

    It's amusing but loses interest after a bit. It repeats itself to often and doesn't actually require skill. Plus you can't win. It just keeps racking up points endlessly as far as I can tell.

    Agreed. But yeah, it's an easy game, you just hve to raise or lower your paddle to match the suggestions. I quit after I was winning 14-0.

    I quit after I was winning 2-0. First point, all I did was click start and I got one. Second point, I had to keep going for about 15 rounds. Boring.

    It seems to work in Links, which is a text-based web browser for various Unix-like OSs.
