The Slice Master Landing Board: When to Go for x50 and When to Take x5

How the board scores

Every level ends on a strip of zones marked x2, x3, x5, x10, x25 and x50. The cash you cut during the level is multiplied by whichever zone the knife comes to rest in. A round worth 200 becomes 10,000 on x50 and 1,000 on x5, so the final tap is often worth more than everything that came before it.

The bet

The high zones are small and sit past the safe ones, so reaching them means a longer throw with less margin. Treat it as a bet sized by the round: a poor round has little to lose, so go long; a rich round is worth banking on x5 or x10 rather than risking a miss. Later levels add zones that divide the score instead of multiplying it, which makes a careless long throw actively expensive.

Landing technique

The board scrolls into view before the last target, so you have a second to choose. Fire from the last object with the blade near the top of its spin for the far zones and near the bottom for the near ones. Do not tap again once the knife is in the air over the board; a second flip almost always overshoots.

The bonus round

Some levels end in a bonus section filled with cash stacks and coins instead of a board. It is a straight timing course with no multiplier and no retry, so the right approach is steady, even taps that cut most of the stacks rather than fast taps that try to cut all of them.
