A Simple Game, A Tough Challenge

Mountain 78 is a game about climbing a mountain using only three jumps at a time. Every move counts—one mistake and you could fall all the way down.

It’s inspired by the "foddian" genre and precision-based games where losing progress is part of the challenge.

Why "78"?

It’s there to help you remember a Japanese proverb:

"Fall seven times, stand up eight." (七転び八起き, Nanakorobi yaoki)

Features:

  • A climbing challenge where every jump matters

  • Without narrative dialogues

  • Fireworks for those who reach the top

  • Falling and trying again is part of the experience
