Beach Volley
Beach Volley is a minigame in Pou.
Gameplay
The game is divided into two screens. In the part where Pou is, the screen is divided into right and left, where, when clicking to the right, Pou goes to the right and vice versa. On the left side of the screen, with just one tap, Pou will jump. The game is inspired by the sport of volleyball, where Pou's pet is programmed with artificial intelligence and participates in a normal game with Pou. If the ball falls on Pou's floor, the score is the pet's, however, if the ball falls on the floor in the pet's area, Pou will score. The score is also given if the ball bounces 4 times in the same area. Each match has 10 rounds. To win, Pou must have a 2 point difference, otherwise, the game will have more rounds. By scoring, Pou earns some coins.
Coins
Each game difficulty will cause the amount of coins to change.
- Easy: The number of coins Pou can win by scoring are 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 coins;
- Medium: The number of coins Pou can win by scoring are 2, 5, 8, 11 coins;
- Hard: The number of coins Pou can win by scoring are 3, 6, 9, 11, 13, 16 coins.
The amount of coins Pou earns will depend on the time of each round. If the round is too short, Pou will receive fewer coins; if the round is long, Pou will receive more coins. However, when Pou's pet falls, the number of coins can increase to the next available amount of coins for that round time. (ex: If in a round Pou would score 2 coins (on easy difficulty), if the pet touches the ball 4 times, the coins could be 3.
Trivia
- In the Easy difficulty, the game becomes difficult due to controls but is easy to start enough. The pet can obtain points very easily.
- This is the third sport game in Pou. The first two were Goal and Hoops.
- There are three difficulty levels: easy, medium, and hard.
- This game, Sudoku, Tic Tac Pou, and Four Pous are the only minigames that can actually be won.
- The game is similar to the 1972 game, Pong.
- This is one of the Pou minigames that changed its background music, along with Color Tap. In older updates of the game, the Morning track plays in this minigame (the one used in Sudoku, Connect 2 and Word Find (Pou Words)). The game was later given its own track, Country.
- This game, Food Drop, Food Swap, and Sky Jump are the only games that do not share their background music.
- This is the only game with an animated background.
- This game is one of the three games that the Pou's pet appears. The other games are Pet Walk and Hill Drive. While the pet appears in these games, Beach Volley is the only game where it has a real function.
