About game
ONLY UP DWARF is an exhilarating arcade game in the "only up" genre. In it, a little dwarf relentlessly climbs through a cave, moving from ledge to ledge. You need to carefully time jumps, reach ladders, avoid falling barrels, and slip past spiders guarding the platforms. Collect gems to boost your progress and unlock prizes. The higher you climb, the more points you score — ideal for personal records and competing on the leaderboard. Enjoy brief yet intense gameplay sessions in a light-hearted cave setting. The game is optimized for one-thumb control on mobile devices and keyboard use on desktops.
How to play
Jump from platform to platform in Only Up Dwarf! Move up using ladders: just position your dwarf underneath and press the up button (or tap the on-screen control).
Navigate your character with a virtual stick (touchscreen) or the left and right keys on the keyboard.
Watch out for dangers: barrels can fall from above, so keep moving! Spiders scurry along the edges of platforms — cross when it's safe.
Collect gems to aid your journey. Keep an eye on your lives (hearts) and score displayed on the screen.
Your mission: climb to the highest point possible and beat your own record!
