About the Game

You own a climbing gym now. Are you qualified? Absolutely not. But that's not stopping you.

Climbing Gym Simulator is a first-person management game where you design, build, and run your own indoor climbing facility. Order holds, set routes, manage chaos, and transform a dusty little warehouse into a thriving climbing empire.

  • Use freeform tools to construct climbing walls and mats

  • Place decorations, furniture, and utility objects

  • Shape a welcoming layout that feels truly your own

  • Order from a variety of climbing holds and volumes

  • Freely place holds on any climbing wall

  • Assign holds to routes with custom names, colors, and grades

  • Open your gym to NPC climbers and watch them struggle using fun ragdoll-based physics

  • Set entry, memberships, and item prices (like snacks, chalk, or rentals)

  • Deal with influencer visits, broken equipment, and unpredictable customer needs

  • Reinvest profits to unlock new holds, objects and decorations

  • Expand your space and access entirely new locations

  • Spend skill points to streamline daily tasks and access new tools

From a Climber

It started with one climb. Now everything I own is covered in chalk, my knees are decorated with mystery bruises, and my bank account is in shambles. When I'm not making this game, I'm probably hanging off a wall pretending to use my legs.

From a Solo Developer

No budget. No team. Just one guy making the climbing game he wishes existed. This is a love letter to climbing, gaming, and making dumb decisions in the name of passion. Please support the game... I really need a new pair of climbing shoes.
