Craneballs Studios has decided to bring their rather popular vertical climbing game platform game to Android called SuperRope. This game is similar to other titles such as Mega Jump in that your goal is to get as high as you can while collecting various items to boost your points like coins, diamonds, mega coins and more.
The different between this game and others like it though is that instead of being about jumping from platform to platform like Doodle Jump or Abduction!, or using rockets like Mega Jump, you have to climb up ropes and when the rope ends, jump to another one and continue on.
Features:
- 5 Main Characters: The main protagonist is Pigger, a daring and determined little Pig who you is your first character in the game. As you progress, Pigger can be replaced with an array of other animated characters, including Hedge the Hedgehog, Mouser the Mouse, Mr. Sausage and Birdoo the Bird.
- 5 Lands: Starting out in Green Land, with its namesake rolling green hills, SuperRope then progresses through other beautifully landscaped levels such as Purple Hills, Blue Technicus, Middle Land and Cosmos, each with unique scenery and obstacles.
- 3 Degrees of Difficulty: Depending on your experience and expertise, choose from Easy (slow, with no falling objects and no rope obstacles), Medium (normal speed and no falling pianos), or Hard (fast speed with all the traps) to match your desired level of play.
- Virtual Currency: Give your character a boost by heading over to the Funky Store, where you can spend the coins and Funky Stars you’ve earned along the way on power-ups that help you collect more, fly longer or protect yourself from harm. Can’t wait until you earn enough Funky Stars? That’s okay. You can always use in-app purchases or choose to earn Funky Stars by taking part in marketing actions.
- OpenFeint Tie-in: SuperRope ties into OpenFeint’s social gaming network to let you track how your high score ranks against your friends or post your achievements to your network, making the experience more social and engaging.

SuperRope is a freemium game but one that seems to be done right as everything is optional when it comes to buying things with the in-game currency. You also don’t have to buy the in-game currency either as you earn it a little bit while playing or doing other things in-game as well. Overall though this is a pretty good time killer for those of you who like this type of game. As with any freemium game, you can download this off the Android Market for free.
