Social networks are a box of surprises and can include certain quite curious tricks that will cause great interest to more than one person. Some of them have the possibility of changing the font of the text in the case of Twitter or putting bold and italics in WhatsApp chats. But there is a secret hidden in private Instagram conversations that will keep us entertained for long hours.

Instagram has added a secret game in a totally unexpected way that you can enjoy from this moment. One of its peculiarities is that it is hidden within private messages, so we will need the help of one of our contacts to activate this novelty. The steps are very simple, so you must be very attentive to follow them and find out what game it is.

Instagram turns your emojis into an arcade game

Instagram is going to make you spend more hours in its application after the incorporation of a great novelty that has caught everyone by surprise. From now on you will be able to access a hidden game in the private messages interface, whether you have an Android mobile or an iPhone.

Specifically, users have accidentally found an arcade game very similar to others of the ‘Pong’ or Arkanoid style, which consists of preventing your emoji, turned into a ball, from falling into the void using a kind of space bar that you must move from the bottom of the screen. If you can’t keep your emoji bouncing around the stage, the game will end and you will lose.

However, in this addictive vertical format game typical of retro consoles, there is no way to win, but you can consume many hours thanks to the fact that it includes a points system that you will have to beat again and again.

How active?

Several users have echoed this addition and wanted to share it so that everyone can access it. To do this, open a conversation in your Instagram direct messages. Next, select an emoji to send, which will become the protagonist of your game. Then, you just have to tap on it and voilà! Your Instagram account is now a playground.

It should be noted that the person who is in that conversation will never know that you are playing that game, so it never hurts to let them know that you are going to send them an emoticon to enjoy this benefit. Who knows if you get caught up and end up with a topic of conversation about the highest score each of you has achieved.

It is not known for sure when this secret video game was incorporated, but it is confirmed that it works perfectly on Instagram, for Android version 321.0.0.39.106 and for iOS version 321.0.0. According to a recent Meta spokesperson story in international newspaper The Sun, “we’re always working on ways to make Instagram more fun when connecting with friends, and we’ve launched a hidden game that can be found in your direct messages.”
