The basics are easy to pick up, and there's plenty to master. An upward flick gives you a high, looping shot that's hard to attack. A downward flick on a high ball becomes a smash, which is fast and hard to return but easy to miss if your timing is off.
To serve, right click tosses the ball and you hit it on the way down. You get 10 seconds. You can jump while you serve (Space), mostly because it looks cool. You can also walk around your side of the table, which you'll need for the wide ones.
Scoring is real table tennis: first to 11, win by two. Net cords and edge balls count.
