Instagram users have uncovered a hidden emoji game nestled within the Direct Messages (DMs) section of the platform, sparking excitement among players eager to try it out.
To initiate the game, simply send or click on a single emoji in an Instagram DM, then tap on the emoji again to access the secret yellow game screen. Once there, the objective is to keep the emoji airborne by bouncing it with a movable platform controlled by sliding your finger from side to side.
As you rack up points, the game intensifies, with the emoji picking up speed and the background color gradually darkening. Surpassing 10 points triggers a delightful transformation, where certain emojis evolve into related symbols – like a caterpillar morphing into a butterfly or a potato changing into French fries.
Each player’s high score is saved for future sessions, ensuring continuity even if playing with different contacts. However, friends unaware of the hidden game won’t stumble upon it unless informed to click on the emoji.
While some users may encounter difficulty accessing the game, as it’s not yet available to all Instagram users, the platform aims to inject more fun into the user experience with this playful addition, according to company statements provided to TechCrunch.
