丟乒乓球
Throw Ping Pong Balls
If you’re a champ at playing Beer Pong, this game is your game.

Challenge yourself to higher scores because, at this game, the better you score, the bigger the prize!
It's all about precision and accuracy to secure those top-tier stuffed animals!
BB槍射氣球

Your task is clear – pop 10 balloons, but here's the catch: you only have 10 BB gun bullets! Each shot counts, and if you miss, it won't contribute to your victory.
