## What is Hill Climb Racing?

Play the original classic Hill Climb Racing! Race your way uphill in this physics based driving game, playable offline!

Meet Bill, the young aspiring uphill racer. He is about to embark on a journey through Climb Canyon that takes him to where no ride has ever been before. With little respect to the laws of physics, Bill will not rest until he has conquered the highest hills up on the moon!

Face challenges in unique hill climbing environments with a wide variety of cars to choose from. Earn points from daring tricks and collect coins to upgrade your car and travel further distances. Watch out though - Bill's neck is not what it used to be when he was a kid! And his good old gasoline crematorium will easily run out of fuel.

### 4/5 — Good

*2026-08-24, version 1.71.1*

👍👍👍👍

### 3/5 — Been a childhood game of mine but there's an issue now

*2026-08-23, version 1.71.1*

So I've played hillclimb for a long time and I love this game I love it's simplicity and it's gameplay definitely a top tiere mobile game but recently u guys made it to where tricks and airtime gives you less money WHY?!  Was it an issue or affecting gameplay, did the community want this or are you guys just trying to make more money off of us, I'd always given this game a 5 star until this change I would love an answer on why this was changed and would love to see it reverted please fingersoft it hasn't improved the game at all and I really want an answer on why u guys did this please.

### 1/5 — ruined

*2026-08-23, version 1.71.1*

Another company buys this game and then nerfs the he double hockey sticks out of air time and then implements insane amounts of ads

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-08-22, version 1.71.1*

Amazing

### 1/5 — Ruined coin amount

*2026-08-22, version 1.71.1*

They decreased the amount of coins you get in stages. Everything from the coins themselves and then to air time and flips. I used to make 500 on a flip and now it’s 250. On moon it’s worse you get 5 coins for being in the air instead of 25 and it’s 150 per flip… it already takes a long time to get stuff but now it takes 5 times longer. Game is still great but progression is extremely slow. Lowkey made it not worth playing

### 4/5 — Great way to waste time

*2026-08-22, version 1.71.1*

The title says it all.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2026-08-21, version 1.71.1*

Just downloaded, instant uninstall for me. Ads last too long and I can’t seem to X out of them.

### 1/5 — Great game ruined

*2026-08-21, version 1.71.1*

I’ve played this game most my life but they recently nerfed the money system to encourage micro transactions and now it’s almost unplayable.

### 5/5 — AWESOME FM8IN GAME

*2026-08-20, version 1.71.1*

I PLAY THIS EVERY SINGLE DAY EVEN WHILE I DO THE NASTY

### 5/5 — Og game

*2026-08-20, version 1.71.1*

I have been playing this game since I was young and it’s an awesome game. While it has changed a lot it’s still optional to play it normally. It’s one of the oldest games I’ve played that still gets updates. While I don’t play with adds (for some reason there broken) I’d say it’s a five star game!
