Does anyone have any tips? (no pun intended) ### 5/5 — Love it *2020-12-02, version 15* I really like this game It has good mechanics and graphics and most of all it is fun to play 5/5 Good job guys ### 5/5 — Pretty n o i c e game *2020-11-05, version 15* Really fun to play. The unlocking and gameplay is great. A few suggestions: -use more exciting noises when you get a gold or diamond -the ‘booyah’ is a bit annoying -let people choose what map to play Other than that, really great game. I look forward to seeing updates and this game coming out of beta! -KadePlayz ### 5/5 — Terrific Casual Game *2020-11-03, version 15* I don’t usually write reviews, but this game well deserves it. This game is an awesome game for hours of fun or just a few minutes here and there. In order to unlock new blades, you don’t have to do IAPs, as the IAP options will become available for in-game currency after the promotion. There’s also NO ADS for this free game! Because of that, I made an IAP to support this awesome game. ### 5/5 — Very good! *2020-10-31, version 15* I don’t really leave reviews but I felt like this one was needed. It’s an overall really fun game, I love how the different blades have different feels to them and how you have to change the way you throw different blades, the only trouble I’m having is figuring out how to get more blades then the ones that are currently present. I’m not sure if they are coming out later but from the ones I saw in the picture previews there are a lot of blades that are missing and I’ll like to be able to experience them and different blades then just the one that are the basic available 9 I currently have, otherwise it’s a really fun game and I enjoy it very much. ### 5/5 — Time Killer *2020-10-22, version 15* Super cool game i almost have all the knives Some cool things that would be added -Distance measurement -Ability to choose maps -More knives - ### 5/5 — Really enjoy the game just was more maps *2020-10-12, version 15* Really like the game just wish there was more maps for the knives and then longer maps as well so you can throw farther ### 5/5 — Changes Needed *2020-10-01, version 15* Currently my favorite mobile game. Please add the option to choose a map though. Also I appreciate that visual update on some of the knives 👌 they're lookin nice Also I'd like to report a visual bug. Chonk looks exactly like The Butcher after the most recent update ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Playing favorites *2025-07-03, version 23* I have played this game on both IOS and on Android but I have a problem. The Sentinel is thrown easily straight and true on the Android version but on the IOS version there is zero control or chance when it’s thrown. It just goes end over end. It seems that the Devs favor Android over Apple. Why is that? It has to be the case, otherwise the devs would have made them the same. Don’t play favorites and fix this problem. ### 3/5 — Wondering a few things. *2023-03-16, version 23* Why can’t you go back to the training dojo. It was kind of fun and nice to just throw at a target in there and practice. And how come you can’t just change the map? It changes daily but why not just be able to choose where to throw.. those are my two complaints otherwise it’s good. ### 3/5 — Controls are weird *2020-10-13, version 15* This game is just too hard to play I can’t spin the knife right and fail to hit bullseye. Please make to controls easier. ### 4/5 — Map *2024-09-02, version 23* I love the game and overall it only needs one change. How you cant change the map, It gets annoying because the forest map is the better one. ### 4/5 — Add *2022-11-05* New blades and weapons added and maybe challenges ### 4/5 — The games pretty good *2022-01-29, version 23* The game would be a five star if it didn’t shorten certain map. The blade are cool but the skill shots sometimes change for example the excommunicator had back spin and now it has headshot like really the blade kinda sucks now Other then the occasional change, the games is great ### 4/5 — Lost everything *2021-12-04, version 23* Fun game but I went on this morning and all my progress is gone! It’s having me start at the very beginning after putting in a lot of hours. ### 5/5 — Wish it was still being updated *2026-04-14, version 23* Love this game but wish it was still active! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-04-04, version 23* This game is absolutely amazing but at the same time it’s also a huge letdown that you know we’ve been with y’all for how many years now and for four of the years y’all haven’t done an update or a new level or anything just keeps offering the same rounds of knives that I could buy with money but there’s no point because I’ve already unlocked them so I will just get credits back that doesn’t make no sense. Need something I’m probably gonna delete soon. Spent eight years. ### 5/5 — NO ADS AND AMAZING GAMEPLAY *2025-10-26, version 23* I just want to thank the creators of this game for not flooding the game with ads. I’ve played for 15-20 min straight and never seen a single ad. The game is super relaxing to play and the fact it doesn’t have ads makes me enjoy it and actually want to spend money on knife packs. I wish more games could be like this one. ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Wish they would update it *2025-06-27, version 23* Wish they would update it I have all the knives almost diamond could use some more challenge ### 5/5 — Awesom *2024-01-21* Knives Away is siiiiick. Rad game brings out your ninja skills. ### 5/5 — Gangster Blades *2023-08-07, version 23* This super simple yet very entertaining game is easily a must have classic for all ages and types of gamers to enjoy ### 5/5 — Good *2022-04-16, version 23* Had it for a day now and have been working to get all gold stars on the throwing star. I was wondering what happens when you get all 5? Thank you very underrated game! ### 5/5 — This is by far one of the most satisfying,well made,and over all just fun games I’ve ever played. *2022-02-27, version 23* I’ve been playing this game for half a year I’ve unlocked EVERY blade in the entire game and have fully diamond mastered 53 out of the 83 blades. This game has SO much detail and engineering put into it and it is completely ad free it. The physics mechanics are phenomenal and the point system is detailed to an extreme. This game is fun and relaxing I enjoy it because it is not made to make money it was just made by someone who enjoys making games that are fun. I could not recommend this game enough. Ps.(super excited for the new update please keep this game going) ### 5/5 — Addictive!!! *2022-01-26, version 23* Been playing this game for a while and it’s hands down the best knife game app! It never gets old and works well to occupy my 6 year old when I’m needing a breath at the grocery store etc…. Thanks ### 5/5 — Great but *2021-06-07, version 21* This game is awesome but it feels unfinished --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
