Game Pigeon Beer Pong
Invite friends to join the tournament of Beer Pong, make amazing shots to taste the splashing and chilling beer! In this game for 2 or 4 players, your goal is to throw the ball into the cups on the opposite side so as to remove them before your opponents do so. If there are 4 players, you and another player will become teammates. American University Beer pong is the go-to game at house or frat parties. It's the age old tradition of trying to get the other team to drink as much gross, cheap beer as possible. The game is fairly simple to play, but the rules can be a little tricky to learn.
Use your mouse to arrange your place, click to determine the distance and shoot. This pigeon's revenge will be cruel!

As part of the recent ios 10 software update introduced last fall, iMessage can now be used as something more than just for texting. Apple introduced a series of little apps that are accessible only from your iMessages. Gamepigeon is one of the top iMessage apps out there with a variety of games to play.
20 cups, 2 balls, and 2 iPhones is all that you need to play the latest Gamepigeon iMessage game, “Cup Pong”.
This game is a digital version of the popular party drinking game known as beer pong. The game is set up with 20 solo cups — 10 on each side– forming a pyramid. 4 cups in the back row, 3 in the next, 2 cups ahead, and a final cup in front.
Player one starts a new game and a message is sent to the opponent. The opponent opens the game and gets two chances to swipe the ball and try to make it into a cup. If the ball goes into the cup, the cup is taken away. If both balls go into the cups, the player gets balls back. Balls back mean both balls go back to the player and they get to try to swipe the balls into more cups. This happens until the player misses. When the player misses, their turn is over and the next player attempts to make it into the other cups. The objective of the game is to make it into as many cups first. If you make it into all of the cups, the game is still not over, the other player can redeem themselves.
Unlike its real life counterpart, once the game is over and a winner is determined, the loser does not have to drink all of the remaining cups left on the table.
This game is available to anyone with access to the iPhone’s iMessage feature, virtually allowing anyone to become that stereotypical party-goer for the duration of the game. This game obviously does not include the use of beer or any other type of liquid, but the fun is still very intoxicating.
I know that after a few games played, I wanted to dust off the ol’ ping pong table and invite about a few dozen friends and have an actual tournament. This game is very fun and I highly recommend everyone to play it. It is a great thing to do when you want to kill some time.
With every good thing in life, there is always a critic. Someone who can’t help but disagree or get offended with everything. I have read many reviews that this game should be banned because it promotes and encourages drinking and partying. But in all honesty, the game is far from that. It is a harmless game that was created to pass time. The one unfortunate thing about the app and the game itself is that it can only be played between two people. I would love to see a “teams” option so that you and a buddy can take on two other buddies in a group chat.
Overall, a good game is really hard to find these days. It has been a while since I have opened my phone just to play a game. In my opinion, player v. player games are very entertaining and that is one of the reasons I really enjoy the Gamepigeon iMessage app.
The game is simple, fun, and best of all: it is 100% free!
Beer Pong Games
In 2020, iMessage isn’t simply used to send messages quickly or exchange emoji’s – it’s also about playing exciting games with friends. Here are some of my favorite games you can play with GamePigeon, a free iMessage extension that allows you to play up to 22 games with anyone else who has iMessage. Be careful – you might get addicted!
Cup Pong
Players: two
Game Pigeon Beer Pong Not Working
Cup Pong is one of GamePigeon’s most famous games. The rules of the game are actually pretty simple, likely because it follows the standard beer pong rules in real life (without the drinking, of course). Each player starts with 10 cups in a triangle facing the opposing player. Then, each player takes turns throwing the balls into their opponent’s cups, with each player throwing two balls per turn. The cup then disappears if the ball lands in it. To throw a ball, simply swipe up on your device. If a player manages to get both balls in cups, the player receives “Balls Back” and gets another turn! When there are no cups left on the opponent’s side, you have won!
My advice, aim for the middle cups first. This is because you don’t need a lot of accuracy and angular manipulation, only enough power. This then ensures that you have an advantage over your opponent in the long run, especially because when you reach six and three cups, the cups will reorient themselves to the middle, regardless of where they were before!
Crazy 8s
Players: Up to four
GamePigeon rolled out their first ‘up to four-player game’ with Crazy 8s. Crazy 8s is a wild, fast-paced game. If you like games that guarantee suspense and upsets, this game is for you. The rules and regulations of the game are similar to the real-life card games “Crazy Eights” or “Uno.” The goal of Crazy 8s is to lose all your cards. It seems simple enough, right? Wrong. Crazy 8s will present you with twists and turns at every corner, so my advice is to backstab your friends before they backstab you, no matter how good your friendship is!
Archery
Giant Beer Pong Game
Players: two
Ever wanted to hit a bullseye? Well, now is your chance with GamePigeon’s Archery. Archery has three rounds, and the player that wins two of these rounds wins the whole game. In each round, you get three arrows and your score for the round is calculated depending on which ring you shoot the arrow on (0-10, with 10 being a bullseye). However, Archery presents an interesting obstacle. Wind speed and direction must be taken into consideration when shooting the arrows – this information is just above the ring board. Overall, it is a fun game but requires patience and accuracy to calculate the optimal location to shoot your arrow, given that wind speed and direction are factored in. Luckily, every time you play Archery, you get a lot better at predicting how different wind speeds and directions affect your arrows. Now, go get that bullseye!
Anagrams
Players: two
Anagrams are one of the two-word games on GamePigeon, with the other one being Word Hunt. Anagrams is a 60-second game, where you are presented with six letters and you combine them to make words. You try to make as many words as you can and the more letters a word has, the more points you accumulate. The player with the most points ultimately wins the game. I have two things for you to keep in mind. One, the word must be longer than two letters. And two, each player gets the same letters, so don’t let your sneaky friend see the letters beforehand if you end up playing before them.

The trick for Anagrams is to just make any combination that makes sense. Personally, while I’m playing Anagrams, I don’t even think about if it’s a word or not – as long as it has a vowel, I test it out! Some Greenhill students are basically pros at this game. In fact, senior Varun Gande has accumulated more than 1000 wins on Anagrams. So, if you would like to learn from an expert, he’s the guy to talk to.
20 Questions
Players: two
20 Questions are unlike any other GamePigeon game I have seen before. It requires deep critical thinking skills and a lot of patience on both sides. First, the player who sends the game to a friend will think of an object and type it on the designated line. The other player will then ask a series of yes or no questions that the first player will answer either “yes,” “no,” “sometimes” or “You’ve Guessed It!” The goal of the game is to use these yes or no questions to get closer to the object in question and then successfully guess it in 20 questions or less. If the guesser does not get the object within 20 questions, the object is revealed. The game can go for about five minutes or even five months, depending on how well the guesser plans and uses the yes or no questions. In the end, 20 Questions serve as a classic game of deductive reasoning and creativity.
To start, simply download GamePigeon on the app store and send a game of your choice to a friend over text. Happy gaming!
