Play Vertix

Hands, rooftops and one swipe between you and the drop.

Free on iPhone in the Roam app. Android coming soon.

There is a gap ahead before you have read the screen. Vertix is a first-person rooftop parkour game where you only see your gloved hands and the next ledge. Drag to steer, swipe up to vault, and chain clean jumps to push the score multiplier. It is a one-finger runner for the Roam app on iPhone, and a run lasts as long as your timing holds.

Steer and vault

Drag left or right to steer.
Swipe up to jump over gaps.
Keep running to push your distance.

If you like games like Mirror's Edge

The pull is the same first-person feeling: hands in frame, roofs ahead, and the drop always one mistake away. Vertix keeps that view and strips the rest away.

There is no story, no combat and no map. It is an endless rooftop run built for one finger, with a score to beat. It is a game made on Roam, not Mirror's Edge.

That makes it a quick fix rather than a long game. You can open it, run for a minute and close it, which fits a phone better than a full campaign would.

Tips for a longer rooftop parkour game run

Swipe up at the edge, not before. Early jumps fall short more often than late ones.

Steer gently. Small drags keep you centered for the next vault, and the multiplier only grows while your jumps stay clean.

For score chasers

It is a good fit for players who like free running games and score chasing. A run can be over in seconds, so it is easy to go again.

The untextured white roofs keep the screen clean, so the next ledge is always easy to read even at speed. If you like learning a run by feel and beating your own best distance, it hits that spot.
