Your WhatsApp has FIVE hidden games you can play with pals – how to find them
WHATSAPP has plenty of games – they're not built into the app, but they're easy enough to find.
Here are five games to play on WhatsApp with pals today.
1) Tic tac toe
An oldie but a goldie, tic tac toe is a game in which two players battle it out to complete a row, a column, or a diagonal with either three O's or three X's.
Competitors take turns to draw either a nought or a cross in the spaces of a grid of nine squares.
You can play tic tac toe with a friend on WhatsApp – or any other messaging app for that matter – using emojis.

Simply start with a grid of nine white squares organised in three by three rows and columns.
For the first turn, either you or your pal should copy and paste the grid into their text box and replace one of the white squares with either an O or X.
The next player can then copy and paste that grid, adding their own counter, and so on.

2) Find the number
The way you play "find the number" is self-explanatory: Spam your text field with dozens of one number, hiding a separate number somewhere in the middle.
Send it to your friend with a time-limit and see how they get on.
The game works best using digits that look similar – "8" and "9", for instance, or "2" and "5".
If you can't be bothered entering all those numbers in yourself, you can always copy and paste the version above.
3) Emoji quiz
This infuriating test challenges players to guess the 24 movie titles from a sequence of emojis.
While some will be a doddle to solve others will leave you scratching your head, with only true film buffs coming out on top.
Some emojis sequences “spell out” the title, while others contain famous clues from the films.

Another one for the brain trainers out there: For this challenge, you need to figure out which water tank will fill up first.

The answer is tank number one, which fills up first as it is receiving water constantly.
Only when tank one is completely full will the other tanks fill up to the top.
