Many TikTok users have become obsessed with the ‘Marshmallow Game’ after it started going viral on the app in late September. Here’s everything to know about how to play it.
Over the past couple of years, TikTok has been home to a whole host of popular trends and challenges that pretty much everyone has had an attempt at.
Some of these are still going strong – you’ll see plenty of Moon Phase TikToks and AI Filter trends popping up on your feed at the minute – but there are still new ones too, including the marshmallow game.
It’s a simple sequence game where you and a friend have to repeat three phrases. However, people keep getting caught out by trying to go fast. Here’s what you need to know to play it yourself.
