Instagram hides a secret game and you don’t even know it

Internet and social networks have not finished surprising us. While we all know the famous dinosaur game on Google when WiFi abandons us, few people know that Instagram hides a game as simple as addictive.

Thus, in all discretion, Instagram added a game to entertain its users. Meta’s social network has almost not spoken of it and, in fact, the number of users aware of the existence of this game is quite low. If you want to shine during a next evening with your friends (and see them absorbed for several minutes by the game in question), here is how to “unlock” the hidden game of Instagram.

Instagram: a game hidden in user DMs

Everything happens in direct messages. So, to unlock the hidden game of Instagram, just go to any conversation and send the emoji of your choice. Now click on this famous emoji and voila. Know that it works if your friend has sent you a simple emoji.

By clicking on the emoji, a window opens and the game starts. A black bar appears at the bottom of the screen and the lens is quite simple: to bounce the emoji and not let it touch the floor using your finger to move the black bar. The goal of the game is, of course, to bounce the emoji the greatest number of times and to make the best possible score. Certainly, the more we advance in the game, the faster the emoji goes, the more difficult it is to catch it.

The Instagram game works with all emojis, even if some are more complicated to handle than others. Your best score is recorded. Your friends who will launch the game in your conversation will therefore know how strong you are (or zero). Let’s say all the same that users are not warned that you are playing a hidden game. The keyword being “hidden”, of course. Thus, it is wise to keep them informed if you send them an emoji out of nowhere. Or, click on an emoji previously sent to your conversation.

Here, Instagram did not invent the powder and clearly did not revolutionize the world of gaming with this secret game. Still, it is simple to understand and that we can quickly find himself caught up, always wanting to do better. It is reminiscent of games like Flappy Birdwith the difficulty that increases as you go, the tension you feel so as not to fail so close to overcoming our best score and the frustration that is fine when you lose.
