Stickman Hook is an endless arcade-based game that will test your timing and physics skills.

If you're looking for a fun, thrilling, yet passive game, Stickman Hook should definitely be on your phone. It combines action and logic in one, which makes it popular for all ages and genders.

To add, the game is probably one of the best time-waster games out there. This means that it's a good everyday game to have since you can play it any time you like. There are no timeouts or schedules to follow, nor will you have to wait for hours just to start and finish a game.

In a nutshell, Stickman Hook uses a simple stickman character whose goal is to go through all of the platform's obstacles successfully using a tool called "grapnel."

For reference, the grapnel is an adjustable rope and will be your tool throughout all the levels you'll go through. As of the time of this review, it's not yet replaceable, but this isn't really a big deal to be considered a disadvantage.

The developer, MadBox, gave the stickman spider-like movements and agility, which gave it even more character. As per the official description, this is also done to make players, you, in our case, see the character as a spider stickman. Because of this, you can see this as somewhat inspired by Spiderman, although not explicitly stated.

To make the character even more distinct, it turns into a ball throughout the time that it's not jumping. This will allow you to bounce off on flat surfaces instead of only having the option to swing endlessly. The movement is also a way to be flexible in passing the game's levels.

Despite the game having a relatively simpler design and graphics, you can actually expect a lot from it. It consists of gameplay features like being able to equip the stickman with various skins and acrobatic tricks.

Playing Stickman Hook will mostly require your skills in timing and coordination. With a good sense of vision, hand movement, and logic, you can expect that playing this will be a piece of cake (although still challenging).

Control-wise, the developers also maintained their simplicity. You only need your fingers to tap whenever you want to jump or switch positions. We'll delve deeper into this topic in the following section to better help you navigate your way around the app.

Note that you also have to deal with physics since momentum plays a big part in finishing a level. Find the right time to jump, release from a course point, switch hooks, and when it's best to just bounce off. If you miss the opportunity, you may swing too slow and ruin your gameplay for the whole course.

Another good thing about Stickman Hook is it's a free-to-play game. You don't have to pay for anything just to enjoy it. It's important to remember that it runs through ads, though. Because of this, you should expect advertisements every so often. You always have a choice to buy the ad-free version if you like, but you can still rest assured that Stickman Hook stays enjoyable.
