"Climb Knight Update: New Minigames Added This Month"

By EmmaMay 05,2025

If there's one thing you can say about the mobile developer AppSir, it's that their games always deliver a unique and captivating experience. From our glowing review of Spooky Pixel Hero to their latest release, Climb Knight, AppSir consistently hits the mark with distinct indie fun that appeals to gamers looking for something different.

You might be thinking, "Didn't you already cover Climb Knight?" Indeed, we did, and we gave it a fairly positive review. Surprisingly, the team at AppSir was taken aback by the warm reception Climb Knight received. In response, they've announced a major free update coming on February 25th, which promises to enhance the game further.

What's in store with this update? You can look forward to three new one-bit minigames and the introduction of a mysterious advisor character, reminiscent of Apple Newton shareware. Given AppSir's track record with their spooky releases, there's likely more to this advisor and the new gameplay than meets the eye.
