Welcome to LadderFall, the physics-based roguelite where every drop writes a new battlefield story. DRAG, DROP, DOMINATE Touch and drag to line up your soldier, release to let gravity (and fate) decide. - Tap up to three times mid-fall to nudge direction and grab clutch bonuses. SHOP-DRIVEN LADDER GENERATION After each wave a fresh ladder is built from the gear and upgrades you bought. Shape your run before it even begins: add 2×, 3x or even a 5× multipliers, new loot tiles and more. COLLECT & COMBINE - 4 distinct weapons: Greatsword, Bow, Staff, Sword & Shield. Each with rock-paper-scissors counters. - 8 armor sets across Peasant, Bowman, Mage and Warrior packs. - 9 flashy spells from Fireball to Berserk. - 5 enemy types across 3 unique arenas. CLONE THE PERFECT ARMY Hit a 5× tile and watch your single recruit split into a squad! Each clone keeps only the bonuses it personally touched, so positioning is everything. UPGRADE BETWEEN RUNS Earn gems for every wave cleared. Permanently boost health, damage, attack speed, cooldown or mana to push deeper next time. ONE MORE WAVE Levels escalate through multiple waves that test both your ladder planning and real-time taps. Clear them all to claim richer rewards and unlock the next pack. WHY YOU’LL FALL FOR LADDERFALL - Fast sessions perfect for mobile. - Deep build crafting meets satisfying ragdoll chaos. - No two ladders or battles are ever the same.
