The first minutes

Funny Food Duel is built around one question: who reaches the treat first. Two cute animals compete for food, and you tap quickly to grab the good items. Some of the food is frozen or spoiled, and eating it costs points, so speed only helps if you also look at what is on offer.

The controls are one key per player. The left player presses A to eat, and the right player presses the Left arrow. On a computer that means both players can share the same keyboard, with one hand each side. Poki also lists phones and tablets, where the game uses taps instead of keys.

Rounds are short, so the game fits between other things. It is a two-player game, which makes it a better fit for a pair than for someone playing alone. Because the rules are only two sentences long, you can explain it in less time than a round takes.

Four or five pointers

  • Look before you press. Frozen or spoiled food costs points, so a fast wrong press loses more than a slow right one.
  • Sit with a clear gap between the A key and the Left arrow so neither player blocks the other.
  • Keep your finger resting on the key. A relaxed hand reacts faster than one hovering above it.
  • Agree on a number of rounds before you start, so the duel has an ending.
  • Swap sides after a few rounds. The left and right positions use different keys, and it keeps the duel fair.

Made for

Two people who want a few fast rounds on one device, including younger players who can manage a single key.

What to weigh up

  • It is a two-player game, so playing alone gives you much less.
  • Poki shows ads around its games, so there may be an advertisement before a round.
  • It is built around fast reactions, which some players find tiring after a few rounds.
  • Poki lists the last update as March 2023, so do not expect recent changes.
