Play Pong Kombat Online

Pong Kombat came out in 1994 as part of the MS-DOS Classic Games collection, developed by The Lost Boys. It was a strange, clever little mod that took the basic idea of Pong and cranked it up with the over-the-top personality of fighting games from that era. On a system known for its shareware oddities and pixelated sprites, this fit right in.

You control a paddle, but it's a paddle that can punch, block, and perform special moves like a fireball or an uppercut to attack the ball. The main objective is still to get the ball past your opponent, but you do it by literally fighting for it. Each successful hit builds a power meter; fill it, and you can unleash a fatality that ends the round instantly. The pacing is fast and silly, with taunts flying and the ball often ricocheting in unpredictable ways after a powerful strike. It feels less like a sport and more like a chaotic, humorous argument played out with primitive graphics and simple controls.

Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
