More about this game
Your goal is to embed a set number of knives into a rotating wheel to clear the stage. The core loop involves timing your throws to hit empty wood while avoiding existing blades and red obstacles. As you progress, the difficulty increases: the wheel changes speed unpredictably, and after stage 10, it can suddenly reverse direction. Every fifth level features a special boss target. A run ends immediately if your knife strikes another blade.
Tips
- Watch the wheel's rotation carefully. After stage 5, the speed shifts randomly, and once you pass stage 10, the wheel can suddenly reverse direction entirely.
- Focus on hitting the apples when it is safe. Each collected apple adds 50 points to your score, while standard knife hits only grant 10 base points.
- Count the red obstacles before throwing. Stages can start with up to 4 pre-embedded obstacles, leaving you with fewer safe zones to land your 5 to 8 knives.
Questions
How do I beat a stage?
You must successfully throw all of your given knives into the target without hitting any existing blades. The required number of knives ranges from 5 to 8 per stage.
What happens if I hit another knife?
Your knife will bounce off the target, the screen will flash white, and your run will end immediately. You will have to restart your score from stage one.
How do the boss stages work?
Every fifth stage is a boss encounter. These targets look different, feature up to two apples instead of one, and require precise timing to defeat without hitting the existing blades.
