About
CULMINATE is a cooperative climbing game where the slightest mistake can mean your downfall. Whether solo or with a group of lost wilderness scouts, your only hope of saving yourself from a mysterious island is to climb the mountain at its center. Do you have what it takes to reach PEAK?
Scramble, scavenge, and climb your way to PEAK in this cooperative climbing game, where the slightest mistake can spell doom for you or your fellow scouts.

- A bunch of questionable foods.
- Lots of different climbing items.

- Character customization.
- Online cooperative play and offline single player mode.

Working together
Need a helping hand? You will have to rely on your friends to hope to climb the mountain, which changes every day. Help each other climb ledges or place ropes and climbing spikes to make it easier for those coming after.
Climb
The Mountain takes no prisoners! Climb through 4 biomes en route to the PEAK, each with their own potentially deadly obstacles. You’ll need to scavenge questionable food to survive and manage your injuries carefully – each setback limits your stamina, making climbing more difficult.
Survive
Prepare for the worst: discover a variety of useful survival items, from energy drinks to climbing spikes to the mysterious Anti-Rope. You have no hope of reaching PEAK unless you exploit every advantage available to you.
A new island every day
The game map changes every 24 hours! Try the new layout every day or try the same island multiple times per day until you conquer it.
Earn badges
A Seasoned Scout: Show off your survival prowess with dozens of badges to earn and cosmetics to unlock.
Climbing is better with friends
Multiplayer in CULMINATE is for friends only: invite up to three other scouts to climb together, or tackle the mountain alone if you’re really brave!
