Play Pang! 3 Online

Pang! 3 came out in arcades in 1995, developed by Mitchell Corporation. It was part of that era where arcade games were still competing for attention with home consoles, offering quick, intense rounds that felt worth a few coins. The series had already built a following, and this entry refined the formula without straying too far from what made it work.

You control a character who moves left and right at the bottom of the screen, aiming a harpoon upward to pop bouncing balloons. Your goal is to clear each screen of balloons without getting hit; they split into smaller, faster versions when struck, so you have to manage the chaos as the space fills with hazards. The pacing is relentless, especially in later stages where timing and positioning become critical. It feels tense but satisfying when you clear a tricky wave without a mistake.
