Our take on Parkour Legends
Its defining structure is manual route optimization: each run combines specific parkour inputs and momentum as the player chases three target times on every level.
What is Parkour Legends?
Parkour Legends is a 2D, side-scrolling platformer built around time trials.
Players control a runner directly with a gamepad or mouse and keyboard, choosing routes and combining moves such as vaults, slides, rolls, ledge grabs, wall runs, and rebounds. Successful tricks can increase speed, while risky movement builds adrenaline for faster runs. The game includes over 250 hand-crafted levels, each with three target times, two hard-to-reach items, and two optional objectives. Collectibles provide gear for styling the runner, alongside hair and appearance customization. Every level has a leaderboard for comparing completion times. The game requires manual control rather than automatic running.
