Google Messages is preparing built-in games for chats

Strings in a Google Messages beta build point to a new "Games" section with titles including Chess, Checkers, Pool, Basketball, Darts, Cup Pong, and Crazy 8s. The feature, internally codenamed Midnight, would bring a GamePigeon-like experience to Android, though Google hasn't announced it.
