Instruction Manual
How to Play.
Everything you need in five minutes: controls, how to read your opponent, grudge matches, points and sharing your win.
Open the Game
Tap Play Now. On a phone, turn the sound on and hold the phone upright. The game fills the screen.
Ring the Bell
Tap Ring the Bell to start your career. You fight five opponents in order, each one faster than the last.
Watch the Gloves
Every punch is telegraphed. The glove that glows tells you what’s coming and how to avoid it.
Dodge, Then Punch
Let him miss, then punch while he’s dazed. Punching into his guard only gets you countered.

Read the Gloves
What Each Color Means.
Gold glove: hook. Duck it, or slip away from the side it’s coming from.
White glove: jab. Slip left or right.
Red glove: uppercut. Slip left or right. Ducking won’t save you.
Dazed opponent. After a clean dodge he’s open. That’s your moment to punch.
Grudge Match
Put a Face on Your Opponent.
On the game’s main menu, tap Grudge Match. On a phone, scroll down a little to see it.
Tap the empty circle, Upload a Headshot, and choose a photo or take one. A close-up, front-facing face works best.
Type their name. Add a line of trash talk if you like. It shows before the fight.
Pick Easy, Pro or Champ, then tap Fight.
Your photo never leaves your device. Nothing is uploaded to a server. The game remembers your last opponent so you can run it back.
Ways to Play
Four Modes.
Career
Five moguls in a row: The Disruptor, Hedge Fund Harry, The Mogul, The Crypto King and The House. Each has a signature combo. Beat all five for the Limitless belt.
Daily Challenge
One new opponent every day with a twist, such as faster punches or a glass jaw. Same fight for everyone that day.
Grudge Match
Fight anyone you like. Upload their photo, type their name and choose the difficulty.
2 Players
Pass the phone. You both fight the same boss, one after the other. The best score wins.
Scoring
Win Bigger.
Star punches. Slip at the last second to earn a ★. A star punch breaks any guard.
Limitless Mode. Land clean hits and dodges to fill the hype meter. When it’s full you deal double damage and score double points.
Rounds. Three one-minute rounds. No knockout? The judges decide on points.
Rewards
MannyPay Points.
You earn points every fight. Your running total unlocks new glove colors and two special moves:
Southpaw Dash (1,500 points). After a perfect slip, your next punch is a four-hit flurry.
Counter Uppercut (3,500 points). Punch late in his wind-up for a huge uppercut.
Points are for fun, have no cash value and are kept on your device.
Share Your Win
Post the Knockout.
After any win, tap Share Your Win. The game makes a fight poster with your result. In a grudge match it puts both faces on it, side by side. On a phone you can send it straight to Messages, WhatsApp or Instagram. On a computer it saves to your downloads.
Questions
Is it free?
Yes. No account, no download and no ads.
Does it save my progress?
Your best score, points, unlocks and last grudge opponent are saved in this browser on this device. Clearing your browser data resets them.
There’s no sound.
Tap the ♪ button (or press M). On iPhone, also check that the silent switch is off.
The buttons are hard to reach.
Hold the phone upright with both thumbs on the pad at the bottom. On a computer, the keyboard is easiest.
Which photo works best for a grudge match?
A sharp, front-facing head-and-shoulders shot in good light. The game crops it to a circle.
