About Knife Hit
Knife Hit is a one-tap timing game where you throw knives at a spinning wooden disc. Each knife has to land in a clear spot on the wheel — hit another knife and the round is over. Land them all and the wheel spins faster for the next round. Simple, hypnotic, addictive.
The skill of Knife Hit is purely in the read. You are not aiming with a stick or moving a target — you are watching a spinning wheel and tapping at exactly the right beat. After the first few rounds your brain stops thinking in words and starts pattern-matching against the wheel's rhythm. That is when long streaks start happening, and that is also when one mistimed tap suddenly feels like a real loss.
This version runs free in any browser and works on both phone and desktop. The wheel speed and knife count ramp up gently, so you have time to learn before the rounds get nasty. Your best round is saved locally. There are no microtransactions, no ads inside the gameplay and no account required — just open the page and start throwing.

— Strategy & tips
How to win
- Tap with the wheel's rhythm, not against it. Counting beats works better than reacting to gaps.
- Aim for the biggest empty arc. There is almost always a wider gap somewhere on the wheel.
- Pause for half a second after a tricky throw. The next gap is rarely where you think it is.
- Watch for fruit and bonus markers — they reset your throw count and save bad rounds.
- Slow your taps as the wheel speeds up. Faster wheel does not mean faster fingers — opposite, actually.
