Pickleball, even in a storm! Storm Pickleball
Gale-force winds, thick fog, a lightning strike or two… and we still want to play pickleball!
A one-on-one (singles) pickleball game in a storm.
The wind carries the ball. Fog hides your opponent's side. And when the count hits 0, lightning strikes whichever court the ball is over.
Read the weather and hit the ball into your opponent's court.
Only in this game
Real pickleball rules
Side-out scoring, so only the serving side can score. The kitchen, where you can't volley. And the two-bounce rule: the serve and the return must bounce first.
Battles at the net
Dink softly into your opponent's kitchen, then drive the ball that pops up.
From fireworks to a stormy sea
Start in a calm harbor at night, with fireworks overhead, until a storm suddenly rolls in mid-game. The other venue: the deck of a cruise ship on a raging sea.
How it plays
Just taps and swipes
Your player moves automatically. When the ring at your feet lights up, tap.
Tap to dink the ball softly into the kitchen, swipe up for a lob, swipe down for a drive. Drive a high ball and it becomes a smash. How far left or right you touch sets your aim.
A short tutorial walks you through it the first time.
Wind, fog, and lightning
- Wind: it carries the ball. Read the wind and your shot lands in. Misread it and it drifts out.
- Fog: your opponent's side gets hard to see.
- Lightning: when the charge builds, a countdown appears. At 0, it strikes the court the ball is over, and the other side gets a point, no matter who served.
The storm grows wilder as the score climbs.
Real pickleball rules, short games
One underhand serve. Side-out scoring: only the serving side can score.
Stay out of the kitchen: volley the ball while you're in it and you lose the rally. The two-bounce rule applies too.
Games go to 7, win by 2 (capped at 10).
Outfits
Choose a skin tone, hairstyle, and hair color for both you and your opponent.
Keep spotting the rare things that blow by during a match (popcorn, cotton candy, a paper lantern, a swim ring, a seagull, and more) to unlock hats in the same shapes, plus balls, paddles, and shirts.
Records and sharing
The game keeps track of your wins and losses, your win rate, how many times you were struck, and your longest rally.
Turn your results into a single image and share it.

This is just a game. If you hear real thunder or the wind picks up, head indoors. Play pickleball somewhere safe.
