Pong Quest sounds like a ridiculous idea on paper. Mixing the gameplay of the Atari classic with top-down Zelda styled dungeons seems like an absurd combination, but if Mario and Rabbids has taught us anything, it is to never judge wacky combinations until you try them. Unfortunately, Pong Quest is one of the most frustrating experiences I have had in a while and it is certainly not a step forward for the Pong franchise.
CCG writes - "Pong Quest has a classic mode available if you wish to experience the base game. Where Pong Quest really shines is in the RPG themed dungeons and multiplayer experience. Though the online portion isn’t very active, playing with friends and family locally is a blast. Especially with all of the quirky power-ups available."
I haven't played Pong in a very, VERY long time. So I'm glad to see that this one turned out pretty darn well.

Pong has returned in the form of Pong Quest, a hybrid of classic pong and RPG conventions.
