Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players who prefer slow, deliberate platforming may hit a wall when movement requires rapid grappling-hook swings and launches.
- Players looking for combat-focused progression may find the emphasis on traversal, exploration, and escape too narrow.
- Players seeking a short, contained setting may not suit an adventure spanning 11 environments.
Our take on Silver Grapple
The bounce point arrives when movement shifts from ordinary running and jumping to physics-based grappling. Players who do not enjoy controlling momentum through swings and launches may struggle before the laboratory's exploration and story elements can carry the experience.
What is Silver Grapple?
Silver Grapple is a fast-paced 2D platformer set in an underground laboratory abandoned after a mysterious accident.
Players run, jump, and swing through the ruins using a grappling hook governed by physics. The game includes 11 environments, ranging from abandoned offices and excavation sites to quarantined laboratory areas. Exploration reveals secret journals and old computers that build the story. Facilities contain new powers, including the ability to skate on water and run at high speed. The objective is to escape the laboratory while rescuing whoever can be found. The game also features a retro-console-inspired soundtrack by Tom Campbell.
