Practice your swing on a stationary baseball and send it flying toward the cans to practice your aim in Hit Knock Down! This game is a unique blend of arcade sports and 2D shooters, with an emphasis on the latter, as it bears little resemblance to the sport it was inspired by, except for the baseball and the bat.

However, the gameplay is still exciting, and the crowd goes wild each time you knock down all the cans, bottles, and other targets presented. You’re working with a finite number of balls, and as the levels become gradually more complex, the difficulty increases.

How to play Hit Knock Down

The rules are very simple — the objective is to knock down all the targets within a limited number of shots. The cans and bottles are set at varying distances, which can be difficult to judge accurately, so you need to experiment a bit to land a perfect hit. In general, the ball hits a spot slightly below the point you aim at.

At certain levels, the targets are placed atop the wooden planks or other structures, which, when hit at exactly the right spots, collapse spectacularly. Using this method efficiently can help you knock down multiple objects at once, thus ensuring you’ll complete the goal with the least shots possible.
