Our take on Ultimate Monkey Race
The shared level-building focus trades fixed, predictable tracks for courses that change during play. That creates room for traps and shortcuts, but also makes the racing experience dependent on how participants construct each round.
What is Ultimate Monkey Race?
This 3D party platform-racer combines course construction with competitive runs.
Players add blocks and hazards during a match, then navigate the changing route by running, jumping, grabbing ledges, and pulling themselves upward. Shortcuts and recovery moves can affect progress toward the finish. Points determine the round winner, and matches can be hosted or joined through Steam. The game supports voice and text communication, with play for up to 6 people optimized within a stated hard limit of 32. Its block selection supports varied course layouts, while different level challenges alter how each race is approached. The format centers on online sessions with friends and on adapting to obstacles placed during play.
