About Swing Thing
A brave little blob crosses a cave of bubbling lava with nothing but a grappling rope. Hold to latch onto the nearest hook and swing, then let go at the right moment to fling yourself toward the next one. The hooks spread further apart and some of them crumble, so every release counts.
How to play
- You start hanging from the first hook — release to fling yourself forward.
- Press and hold to shoot a rope at the nearest hook in reach (ahead is preferred).
- While holding you swing like a pendulum; release to keep your momentum and fly.
- Lava below and spikes above end the run.
- Brown hooks crumble about a second after you grab them; any hook gives way if you hang for too long.
- Score one point per distance step plus 2 for every new hook you grab.
Objective
Swing as far across the cave as you can without touching the lava or the spiky ceiling.
Tips & strategy
- Release on the upswing, just past the bottom, to fly forward and up.
- Grab while you're still falling so the rope catches you before the lava.
- On a crumbly hook, release immediately on the way up — don't wait for a second swing.
