Five things, in the order you meet them

How Thunk plays

The target turns, you tap, and the knife has to stick without touching one already there. Here is the rest, each on its own screen from the game.

  • Thunk at level 98: a log ringed with stuck knives spins over a red mesa at dusk, an acorn on its rim, the next knife waiting at the foot of the screen.

    Step 1: Tap to throw

    Tap anywhere on the screen and a knife leaves. The only skill is when.

  • The Levels screen for Pine Camp: numbered level tiles with red stars, every fifth tile outlined in red as a boss, and the star count at the top.

    Step 2: Stars for every level

    Earn them by clearing it, by knocking every acorn off the rim, and by clearing it first try.

  • The Bullseye boss: a black and cream target with knives in its rim, framed by red curtains over a snowy pine valley.

    Step 3: A boss every fifth level

    Each with its own rhythm. The bullseye keeps a double one: count it twice before you throw.

  • The Thunk home screen: the next knife, Plum, with its price in acorns and a Buy button, a wooden Play button for level 128, and Knives, Endless, Levels and Trophies below.

    Step 4: Acorns off the rim

    Spend them on knives, sets and skills. The daily gift grows to day seven, and the next knife shows its price.

  • The Knife Rack: the Crown knife in use, a grid of owned knives, one with its price in acorns and others marked by the level that brings them.

    Step 5: The knife rack

    Pick the knife you throw. The others are bought with acorns, won from bosses, or come with a set.

Past the levels

Three more ways to throw.

Endless

Targets keep coming until a knife bounces. Your ten best runs stay on a board of your own.

Boss Week

Beat the week's boss without a single miss and win a knife from one of the sets.

Notches, one a day

Carve a notch for every day in a row you clear a level. Keep the run going and notches bring new logs and skills.

Comfort and keeping

Set it up your way.

  • Sound, off if you like

    Sound turns off on its own in Settings.

  • Haptics, off too

    They turn off on their own, and they need no permission.

  • A still spin

    The spin flourish can be stilled.

  • No connection needed

    Thunk plays offline.

  • It waits for you

    Switch apps and the game waits for you.

  • A backup, if you want one

    Sign in with Apple or Google and your stars, knives and notches keep a copy that survives a reinstall.
