ONE LINE
--------
Pen Fight is the Indian school desk game, back in the browser: flick
your pen into theirs, knock it off the desk, and keep it.

ONE PARAGRAPH
-------------
Everyone who sat on a last bench played this. Two pens on a desk, you
flick yours into theirs, and whoever's pen goes off the edge has lost.
Nobody taught it. The kid next to you did it once and you copied him.
Pen Fight is that game in the browser, with the pens photographed
rather than drawn, so the Megatop wobbles and the Trimax will not
roll. The part people forget is that it was played for keeps: you put
your pen down, and if you lost, it was theirs. Eleven kids on the
bench, the Trimax at the end of it, and nothing to win but pens. Free,
no download, and a first-timer is flicking a pen within a minute.
