During a recent trip to my village in Punjab, I was surprised to see my younger cousins playing this instead of their usual mobile games. They taught me how the plinko ball mechanics work, and now I play occasionally during my commute to Chandigarh. The game doesn't need constant internet, which is perfect for train journeys through areas with spotty coverage. What's nice is how it works equally well on my cousin's expensive smartphone and my more modest device - rare in today's app ecosystem. It's become our unexpected bonding activity across the rural-urban divide.
