About Kitty Knight: Survive Till New Year — Survivor-Lite Through Three Months of Horrors

Kitty Knight: Survive Till New Year is a survivor-lite where a tiny kitten knight fights through three months of end-of-year chaos. October brings Halloween pumpkins and skeleton pipers, November unleashes homework swarms and deadlines, and December throws snowmen and a winter storm at you. Each month ends with a boss, and the goal is simple: hold out until New Year.

Between runs, fish collected along the way can be spent on permanent upgrades and skins, and a leaderboard lets you chase your best run against others.

How to Play Kitty Knight: Survive Till New Year

Each of the three months is structured as waves, an elite encounter, and a boss fight. On every level-up, pick one of three upgrade cards to shape your run. The Training Yard in the menu teaches every move before you commit to a full attempt.

Combat and Movement

While the blade reaches the golden zone at the end of its swing, attacking again triggers a parry: enemies are knocked back and sparks fly back at them. Rolling moves toward the cursor and makes you invulnerable for its entire duration. Pausing is available at any time.
