    While there’s not really a meaningful structure, plot or anything to work towards, especially for solo players, the mere skill ceiling to climb towards is a satisfying enough loop to guarantee plenty of hours of parkour, with the game’s physics and mechanics properly keeping up with the expectations of such a precise formula. Hardly a revolutionary or particularly memorable game, but it aims to do satisfying parkour first and foremost and it succeeds there. And that’s perfectly fine.

    I never thought I would be playing a parkour game in 2025, but Rooftops & Alleys: The Parkour Game is worth checking out. It does feel a bit old-school in terms of the open world and the need to create your own entertainment, rather than being constantly guided. It works nicely though, and the mechanics are cleverly crafted.

    Another detailed, super niche, hobby specific game that didn’t sit well with me, but this time it wasn’t because it was bad necessarily! Rooftops & Alleys was fine for what it was, but it wasn’t right for me despite being excited to play it. Mostly a mixture between the controls not aligning for me and not finding much to do (I am glad to see the time trials and trick battles exist, but other stuff being options comes to mind; think collecting letters ala the S-K-A-T-E challenges from THPS or finding lines and gaps) lead me to my final opinion. I would definitely need some multiplayer motivation for this to have any longevity as well which isn’t present for me. If you have those things and the will to “get good” at games, then this might be for you and your friends. Don’t let my bad gameplay sell the game short either!
