Play Paddle Pals Free browser game · About 8 minutes

Two players who enjoy timing and steering towards the same finish.

How to play paddle pals

  1. Choose Paddle Pals, pick a course and connect both players in the same room or on one device.
  2. Push your paddles together to move forward. Paddle at different speeds to turn around the rocks.
  3. At a river lock, both hold MOOR until it opens. Reach the end of the course together.

A useful way to start

Use small changes in paddle speed instead of a long turn. Call out which side should slow down, then return to a shared rhythm once the raft faces the opening.

Make it a shared moment

Play together on one device, or create a private room and send the invitation to one friend. Choose one of the six courses and both confirm you are ready. Each player has a real job; there is no computer partner. Use Pause when either person needs a break. Read how private rooms work.
