About Tap Tower

“Tap Tower” is a game in which you can test your attentiveness by building the highest tower out of moving platforms. Compete with people from different parts of your country, score the most points and win first place!

How to play Tap Tower

You can work the whole thing out by playing it. Keep a hand on the arrow keys / WASD; everything else is listed in the controls table. The game runs in portrait, so on a phone you can play one-handed, and on desktop it stays centred rather than stretched out of shape. The second run is always better than the first — that is the whole learning curve.

Why it is worth playing

Tap Tower is easy to start and harder to master, which is the balance the best browser games hit. It is not trying to be anything larger, and it is better for it.
