Throw. Swing. Climb.

Loose eggs are scattered across the world's great rock faces and tallest buildings, each one far from a nest. You've got a grappling hook, a pouch on your hip and a limited coil of rope. Drag back, aim, let go, and pull yourself up.

Drag, aim, release

One-thumb throwing that's easy to learn and deeply satisfying to master. Leap, swing and catch holds as you fall.

Every rope counts

Each climb gives you a few ropes to spare. Find the clever line, use fewer throws, and come back to beat your best.

Bring them home

With ropes in place - and maybe some strategic gaps - nudge the egg and let it roll to the nest. Misses make messages.

Calm by design

No timers, no random guff, no distractions. Solve each level in your own time. Go back as often as you like to achieve the best possible score.

Fifteen famous climbs

Work your way around the world scaling famous peaks and landmarks. Each climb has three challenges, and summiting all three in a group opens the next, harder climb. Challenges include:

  • The FoothillsHalf Dome · Great Pyramid of Giza · Huangshan
  • The High PeaksEmpire State Building · Matterhorn · Huashan
  • The GiantsBurj Khalifa · Nanda Devi · Everest

Perfection is progression

In order to clear a challenge, you must get all the eggs back to the next within the permitted number of ropes.

Save rope by jumping between rock features, throwing your hook strategically, and using the environment to your advantage.
