Some things never change

Players of the original Crazy Climber arcade game from the 80s will remember the opening and closing blinds you have to watch out for as you climb.

Look out below!

Residents of the buildings you climb seem to love throwing anything and everything out of their windows.

Free ride

If you purchase the jetpack in the store, you'll have a chance to find it as you climb. The second you grab it, you'll be safely launched up several floors.

Great upgrades

Once you earn enough coins, you can purchase upgrades such as the helmet that guards against falling objects, the magnet that brings coins to you, and the jetpack, the quickest way up the building.
