Sky Ladder Repair is a cooperative game where one player acts as a climber, and another as a holder. The game emphasizes teamwork and communication, requiring players to share information to assist each other in completing tasks and earning more money to upgrade their skills and equipment.
About the game
Climbers utilize a versatile drill equipped with three distinct bits (Crosshead, Flat, and Hexagon) to ascend and descend the ladder while repairing neon signs. They must adeptly switch drill heads, each represented by a unique color, to match specific repair points on the ladder. This interaction is straightforward, involving tapping the correct drill bit on the repair panel located on the ladder's top right. Safety is paramount for Climbers, who must maintain their grip on the ladder to prevent falls.
Holders, on the other hand, control the movement of the Sky Ladder from ground level, strategically positioning it with precision. When extra reach is required, extending the Sky Ladder is as simple as pulling up on the ladder controller. Holders navigate the game with limited visibility, relying solely on a Mini Map that reveals the locations of broken neon signs in need of repair and the vital upgrade shop.
