What if someone invites you for a game of 8-ball pool while texting through an instant messaging software application? On iOS devices this is possible, thanks to GamePigeon.

Developed by Vitalii Zlotskii, GamePigeon is a mobile gaming app that is directly integrated with Messages (Apple). The app features various two-player games which can be played right in the messages app. There are over 20 multiplayer games, including a new word game named “Word Bites”.
Unfortunately, there’s no such app like GamePigeon for Android that lets users play games directly via texting. However, there are social gaming apps that allow users to play multiplayer games while interacting with each other through text or voice messages:
