TikTok’s shadow box game has taken the app by storm, but this isn’t the first time the trend has gone viral online. The practice dates back quite some time, with the game gaining considerable traction on social media in 2019.

Sometimes called the “pointing game,” the trend requires quick reflexes and meticulous attention to detail. The rules are simple: direct your gaze in the opposite direction of where your opponent points. And if you happen to look where the other player is pointing, you lose.
