About

Rickety

Features
Read full description

Rickety is a one-thumb stacking game about nerve. Tap STACK when the stack is straight. Tap while it sways, and the block lands off to one side. Let the weight hang past an edge, and the stack tips. You get one short moment to push it back. There is no end. You choose when to stop. Lock in to keep your height, or stack one more block and risk everything. Fall, and the run counts for nothing. CLIMB THE WORLD Every flag in the sky is a real player at their best height. Your own flag starts on the ground every run and climbs past them. Only locked-in runs count on the world leaderboard. PASS REAL LANDMARKS One block is four meters. Climb past the Great Sphinx, a Dutch windmill, the Malwiya Minaret, the Taj Mahal, the Statue of Liberty, the Space Needle, the Eiffel Tower, the Empire State Building, and Burj Khalifa. Each one you pass earns a set of blocks and a Game Center achievement. READ THE SWAY The stack swings like a real tower. Tall stacks swing wider. Wait too long, and it tips. A crooked block makes it lean. Flush landings in a row play rising notes and count on their own leaderboard. LEARN AS YOU PLAY No tutorial screens. The game teaches each rule the first time it matters, with one short hint. Rickety has no ads and nothing to buy. Game Center is optional, but you need it to be on the world leaderboard.
