Our take on Tokyo Rogue
Tokyo Rogue departs from platformers that commonly divide progress with checkpoints. Its 24 handcrafted levels remove that safety net and center repeated movement attempts, while gem collection also feeds into hat and trail customization.
What is Tokyo Rogue?
Tokyo Rogue is a fast-paced parkour platformer set in a futuristic Tokyo.
Players control a nimble operative moving toward a rendezvous point across 24 handcrafted levels. The game features rooftop jumps, alley swings, boiling acid vats, and grappling-hook movement around obstacles. Each level has no checkpoints, making repeated attempts part of mastering its routes.
