I actually climb & I absolutely love this game. It may not be exactly like the real thing but it’s dang close. The “puzzle” within the game is the same on a real life rock climbing wall/outdoor rock. You have to think which hand to move where, and same goes for your feet. I definitely feel as if this game could/will help me with my climbing. Great stuff!
★★★★★Fun and exciting game
I am a rock climber, and I think this game is super realistic to the real thing. You can customize pads your character and there’s so many different levels. I found out that you can eventually do a dino. I think it’s a really fun game.
★★★★★Great addition
So far so good. Definitely more polished than the amazing original, but I miss having ratings for the climb and so far it’s a lot easier than the predecessor. Still I love it!!!
Update: moving to five stars as the difficulty definitely upped. Getting close to 3 stars on every route!
★★★★★Great stuff!
I recently got into climbing in real life and I really appreciate the attention to detail here! It’s really fun and challenging. Hope to see a more levels and a level editor soon!
