About this app

Vertical Scramble is the card game for climbing walls. Draw an action and a color — "Heel Hook. Blue." — and make the move. Keep going until you fall. HOW IT WORKS • Flip four starting colors and choose your starting holds: two hands, two feet • Each turn, draw an action card and a color card and move to match • The reader sets the pace — or let auto-draw do it, from 2 to 10 seconds a turn • Play until you fall, then try to beat your score PLAY YOUR WAY • Auto-draw keeps the game moving without anyone holding the phone • Read aloud calls out every draw, so you can keep your eyes on the wall • Remove colors your wall doesn't have, and change how many of each card are in the deck • Make custom action and color cards, with the name in any color you like • House rules are encouraged! Works on iPhone and iPad, in portrait or landscape. No account, no ads, and nothing leaves your device. Climbing is inherently dangerous. Play at your own risk.

What's new

Version 2.1.0 · Nov 10, 2026

A fresh round of polish, with a proper finish line. • New here? Tell us what's on your wall: on first launch, tap off any hold colors your gym doesn't have (and add ones it does), so the game only calls colors you can climb • Leaderboard: the five best games on this phone. Beat a score, add your name, and brag about it from the trophy on the home screen • End of game: see your score in big bubble letters, with the turn you fell on • Custom color cards now have their holds painted in your color • Card counts show exactly how many copies are in the deck, and "Off" for cards left out • Easier to learn: a tip on your first turns and a rewritten How to play • Set the auto-draw interval right in More, and hear the voice when you switch on Read cards aloud • Color swatches in Edit Cards • Better on iPad, with controls sized for the big screen • Fixes: the color slider no longer triggers swipe-back on iOS 26, and Return no longer saves a new card early Happy climbing!
