About the Game

Mountain Hook is a simple, zen-like time-waster about scaling giant stone towers. It's best enjoyed with a podcast and your favorite snack as you ascend into the skies - flirt with gravity and let the real world pass by on the wind

Pick your route up each new mountain and take as many risks as you think necessary to reach the summit. Toss a few of your sticky explosives if you need to create some space and throw in the occasional back-flip simply because you can.

Note: Mountain Hook supports mouse and keyboard but was designed to be played with a pad for the most satisfying swing

  • A grappling hook with playfully satisfying swinging physics

  • Some explosives, in case you need to get creative

  • A genuinely pointless and risky back-flip ability

  • Predefined challenge mountains to get you accustomed

  • Unlock-able character customization options

  • Gamepad support with configurable buttons

  • Endless, procedurally generated monoliths, begging to be tamed

Mountain Hook is the work of a solo developer. If you experience any issues, get in touch and I'll address them as soon as possible.
