Instagram has been consistent with updates, and lately, it brought some cool features to private messages. It includes editing the message you sent, pinning your top three conversations, and more. But there’s something more, you mightn’t know about. Instagram has recently brought in a secret emoji game. Well, this is fun to play around especially when your friend isn’t responding on time. It’s a cool time killer and of course, a fun mini-game.
You can start playing Instagram’s secret emoji game, right now
This mini-game is available right now, and you can get ready with that. To get started, start a conversation with anyone, or even engage with Meta’s AI assistant. Once you’ve slid into one’s DMs, simply drop an emoji. Again, it could be any emoji. But you might want to choose what you like because that’ll be your in-game character or the bouncing ball of Instagram’s secret emoji game.
After you pick the emoji and send it, you need to tap it. At that point, it becomes bouncing the ball/emoji around the screen. You use a slider to stop it from going past the bottom of the screen. Every time you stop the emoji, you get a point. But if it gets past your slider, the game ends. Winning isn’t clear, but the emoji will get faster as you play, making it harder. What’s worth mentioning is it saves your high score, so you can try beating it the next time. This game recalls my memories of playing the Dinosaur T-Rex Game on Chrome, which shows up if your internet is down and saves the high score.
A spokesperson told The Sun that Meta is “always working on ways to make Instagram feel more fun while connecting with friends.”
Moreover, the mini-game is available across iOS and Android phones, but not everyone has been able to play it so we may expect the rollout in batches.
