Knockback opens straight into guest play. A quick match fills the circular board with four colors, and empty public seats can be taken by players carrying a visible AI marker so the first roll does not depend on a full human lobby.
The familiar race-home foundation is easy to read: each color begins with four pegs, a central dome produces the roll, and the first player to move every peg around the track and into the home lane wins. When the roll offers a choice, the active player selects which legal peg moves.
Landing on another color normally knocks that peg back to base, but each match can layer on safe start holes, leader bounties, comeback boosts, revenge targets, combos, and a final showdown. The current rules are shown before the opening turn instead of being hidden after the match starts.
Glowing question-mark holes award Power-Ups when a peg lands on them exactly. The live match also assigned a secret mission to knock back someone who had already knocked you back, turning ordinary route choices into a second objective.
Quick match is the shortest path into a game, while a private room provides an invite code for friends and family. Hosts can choose an arena and add computer players; the official rules also describe chat as a private-room feature rather than a public-match channel.
An account is optional. Guest play works immediately, while signing up preserves the player name, XP, coins, cosmetics, and leaderboard progress. The official terms say the game is free and its current coins and items cannot be bought for real money.
A guest quick match started immediately with three clearly marked AI rivals. The first turn exposed the Pop button, four home pegs, glowing Power-Up holes, a revenge secret mission, and the current match rules before the dice and pieces began moving.
