Getting ready

  • Stand your device up at chest height so it can't fall over.
  • Step back about 1 m (3 ft) from the screen. Make sure there are no people or objects within 1.5 m (5 ft) of you.
  • During setup, fit your head and shoulders in the frame, raise your guard, and throw a few test punches. From the second time on, the test punches are skipped.

The fight

  • 3 rounds of 60 seconds, with a 10-second break between rounds.
  • Bring your opponent's HP to 0 to knock them down. Keep them down for a KO win. If both of you are still standing at the end, it goes to the judges.

Punches

  • Straight: punch straight toward the camera.
  • Hook: raise your elbow and swing in from the side.
  • Uppercut: drive your fist up from below. It hits the chin.
  • Body shot: a straight thrown downward or a low hook. Punches thrown while ducking always hit the body.
  • The faster and harder you punch, the more damage you deal.

Defense

  • Slip: move your head and upper body to the side to dodge straights.
  • Duck: lower your upper body to dodge hooks.
  • Guard: hold both fists in front of your face to take only 20% damage.
  • Your opponent always gives a warning sign before attacking. Watch closely and move.

Attack tips

  • Counter: land a hit within 1 second after a dodge for double damage.
  • Interrupt: land a strong punch while your opponent is winding up to stop their attack and stagger them.
  • Weak points: hit the marker on your opponent's body for big damage.
  • Punches on a guarding opponent barely work. Aim for the opening after they attack.

If you get knocked down

  • Throw 10 punches within 10 seconds to get back up. Three knockdowns is a KO loss.

Pausing and menus

  • Raise both hands above your head for 2 seconds to pause. Hold your guard for 1 second to resume. To quit, touch the screen.
  • On the result screen, punch with your left to go home or with your right to fight again. Two punches on the same side confirm.

Opponents

  • Each win brings out the next opponent. You can wear the body types of opponents you've beaten on your avatar.
  • You can put a photo face on TARGET (the photo is only used on your device).
