Play Nogginknockers Online
Smash blocky little dudes into walls with one-button DOS controls—it’s janky, ridiculous, and weirdly addictive. Like digging up some long-lost floppy and realizing it’s pure chaos.
Nogginknockers is one of those obscure MS-DOS games from the early '90s that never got much attention, even back then. It was released as part of a compilation called 0 MS-DOS Classic Games, though I'm not sure who actually developed it. The game fits right in with the experimental, low-budget feel of that era, where developers tried all sorts of odd ideas just to see what would stick.
You control a small, blocky character whose only job is to knock other blocky creatures into walls using a single button. The goal is to clear each screen of enemies by bumping them hard enough that they shatter on impact. Movement is grid-based, so you plan each shove carefully to avoid getting cornered. The game gets tough quickly, with later levels introducing obstacles and enemy patterns that demand precision. It feels chaotic and a little clumsy, but there's a strange satisfaction in lining up the perfect hit.
Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
