Play Knife Knockout online.
Find the gaps in spinning targets, slice apples and face 24 unique bosses. A timing challenge with collectible knives, saved stage progress, late-game board chains and a Knife-gold perk shop.
Full game guideA good first run
Watch the gaps between embedded knives. Targets speed up, slow down and reverse as you progress. Every cleared stage is saved. Revisit defeated bosses from the lodge’s Bosses tab. Every fifth stage has a boss. Selected stages have two boards from stage 21, and bosses have three from stage 65. The first board keeps its full knife count. Second boards need just 3 knives at stages 21–39, then add one knife every 20 stages. From stage 20, get one free board reset per run. Buy extra perk charges for 75 Knife gold in the lodge; the bag holds 2, then 3 at stage 50 and 4 at stage 100. Earn Knife gold from landed knives, apples, boards and bosses; perks never cost Skidabi Gold. Clear stages 5, 10, 15 and 25 to unlock four bonus knives. Skins are cosmetic and never change timing.
