About the Game

Blood, sweat, and tears have led you to this moment. The moment you've trained for, taking punches and pushing your limits your entire life. Your trainer's words, drilled relentlessly over time, are now etched in your mind—as he shouts them once more from your corner: "A world champion is the boxer who never gives up; who pushes past his limits, gets up when he can't take it anymore, and keeps fighting until he wins!

KO is a game that captures the raw intensity of a real boxing fight. Your Fight Deck represents your stamina, so you'll need to manage it wisely. Chain together simple combos to corner your opponent or driven him against the ropes, and boost your hits with dice. If your punches land hard enough, you can knock him down —but he might get back up by discarding cards or risking it all with the KO Die. Aim for the face, break his defense. The tiles forming his face will show the accumulated damage. When the bell rings, you'll have a chance to recover energy or heal the injuries on your face by discarding cards. Your goal is clear: Knock your rival down and score the KO
