About

Idle Climbing Tycoon

Read full description

Open your climbing gym, grow it… and let it run while you live your life. You start in a small hangar with a wall, a handful of holds, and plenty of ambition. Tap the wall to climb, level up your sectors, recruit route setters, and open room after room — from a simple hangar to competition arenas… and well beyond. AN IDLE GAME MADE FOR CLIMBERS • Tap the wall: every hold has its color, from yellow to white, just like a real gym. Get lucky and land a perfect route for a big bonus! • Ten sectors to unlock: kids' area, boulder wall, lead wall, weight room, campus board, speed wall, natural wall, physio/prep center… • Route setters to recruit: each brings their own talent to your team, and their elite version pushes it even further. • Gear to upgrade: shoes, harness, rope, chalk bag, brush, hangboard, helmet, competition kit… • Endless rooms: every new room starts back at zero, but pays far more than the last. Old rooms keep earning for you in the background. IT KEEPS RUNNING EVEN WHEN YOU'RE NOT • Offline earnings: your gym keeps producing while you're away, for up to several hours. • The Rush: launch it to double all your income for a minute, then let it recharge. • A seven-day daily reward, sponsor crates, achievements to claim… there's always a good reason to come back. RESPECTFUL OF YOUR TIME • No forced ads: videos are optional and always give you something in return. • No account, no social features. • Helpful notifications, switchable off anytime in Settings. • A simple, colorful world, built to stay light. OPTIONAL IN-APP PURCHASES The game can be finished without ever buying anything. If you want to move faster or support the game, you can buy starter packs, chalk, or the "Lifetime Income ×2" bonus. Permanent purchases can be restored at any time. An empty gym, a brand-new wall, and climbers just waiting for you. Ready to open the first route?
