About Hook Bot
It’s a challenging Hook Based Physics game where the goal is to get as high off the ground as possible avoiding contact with the dark grappling bots. Help little Boot to reach the goal!
How to play Hook Bot
There is very little to learn before your first run. Load the game above and it fills the player in portrait. On a phone you can play one-handed; on desktop the frame stays centred so nothing is cropped. Most players get the hang of it inside two or three attempts.
