Catch is one of the first pong variation, a kind of "negative" pong.

Turn each knob to move one of the goals up or down, and catch the ball through your goal. The ball never goes out of bounds, but stays in action until one of the players catches it. That player then scores one point. The ball is then automatically served again towards the player who caught the ball.

The first player to earn 15 points wins the game.
