The Climbing Game is a popular exploration adventure game on Roblox. As the name suggests, your primary objective is to climb different mountains and reach the summit. The map has a variety of mountains that you can choose to climb. Start with Simple ones, and then progress to Tricky, Challenging, Advanced, and finally, Brutal.

To reach the summit, you will be using predetermined paths that feature various types of points to hold. You can also use a rope on a rope to make difficult jumps and use it as a safety net.

This article is a beginner’s guide to all the mechanics of the Climbing Game experience on Roblox.

The core gameplay revolves around using holds to ascend to the top of the mountain. To do so, you will have to time your jumps, be aware of the wind direction, and keep a look at your stamina. Certain holds will drain your stamina. If the bar empires, you will fall. But before getting into it, let us look at the controls.

Controls

  • WASD: Movement
  • Space Bar: Jump
  • Z: Place a new Nail. Only works if you are facing a wall.
  • Q/E: Use these keys to adjust the length of the rope.
  • R: After you are done using the rope, press this key to cut it.
  • M: Retry the whole mountain. You will be reset to the base and the timer will restart.

Climbing Game: All Hold Types

If you have the Assistance toggled on, every hold on the mountain will be highlighted in green. Every hold will also be named for your convenience. Beginners should ideally have this turned on. Regardless, here is a list of all of the hold types and how to navigate them.

Hold

This is the default and most common type. Your character will automatically hold on to this if you come inside its range. You can safely take your time with them as they do not drain your stamina.

Grip

This functions exactly like Hold but requires you to press the Space Bar to hold on to it. You have to time the Space Bar properly to successfully use the Grip holds. However, it does not drain your stamina. Grips are brownish gold in color.

Crimp

Crimp is a type of hold that you will find intermittently during the initial mountains. They work like the normal holds, but they drain stamina the longer you stay on them. Try to move or jump away to a Hold to avoid falling. Crimps are more bluish than Holds.

Release

The Release is a more difficult version of the Crimp. In that, holding on to it will rapidly drain your stamina and ultimately cause you to fall. They are green in appearance and you should be extra careful to avoid falling.

Slippery

Another type of hold you will encounter towards the start of the game is Slippery. These are much larger in area than regular holds. While Slippery does not drain stamina, your character will start slipping when you get on it. So jump away to avoid falling.

Here are a couple of tips and tricks for beginners starting the Climbing Game.

  • Enable the Assistance Toggle to help locate and identify the different holds on mountains.
  • Use the shift lock for better movement.
  • Try to get the flags to make extra money.
  • If you keep falling at the same spot, use a nail even if it looks easy. As a beginner, this will allow you to practice difficult jumps without the fear of restarting the whole climb.
  • Mountains will have a limited supply of nails as the difficulty rises. Be judicious.
  • Replay the tutorial level to get a better grasp of jumping distances. Remember:
    • If you press space first, you will jump higher.
    • If you press a right or left key first, your character will go farther in that direction.
