About the Game

Oily Tower is a physics-based climbing game about guiding a wobbly robot up a slippery tower. Each limb can grab, push, or fling the robot forward, and every movement feels both risky and rewarding. You can play solo or climb side by side with a friend, turning every success and failure into a shared moment.

The game focuses on skillful movement and lighthearted trial and error. You’ll learn how to use the robot’s clumsy body to your advantage, finding new ways to climb higher with every attempt. In multiplayer, the challenge grows funnier and more unpredictable as you and a partner try to coordinate your moves without tumbling down.

  • Physics-driven climbing with limb-based controls

  • A quirky, heavy-bodied robot full of personality

  • Solo play or cooperative multiplayer climbing
