About this game

Free Climbing is a sports simulator based on free climbing, a discipline in which climbers use their hands and special boots to ascend walls. The routes feature cracks and spurs that serve as points of support.

Players must independently move the climber’s arms and legs, choosing the right extremity and position to maintain power and continue upward. The game includes 14 different walls, with a time limit for completing each ascent.
