Stickman: Hooks

GameMonetize

Stickman Hooks takes the grappling-swing genre down to its purest form, one stickman, one hook at a time, and momentum as the entire physics engine. You aim, click to fire the hook at the next anchor, and release at the top of the swing arc to fling forward; mistime the release by even a little and you trade a soaring parabola for a sad little hop into the pit. Levels are short chains of anchors that teach one idea each, swing low for speed, hook high for clearance, and the stars reward finishing without ever touching ground, which turns each level into a speedrun of your own line choice. It is the rare game where watching a good player looks like watching a pendulum with intent. Click and release, mobile taps work. Free online, no download.
