Buckleup, gearheads, and prepare to defy gravity in Hill Climb Racing, a 2D physics-based game that's hilarious and addictive. Developed by Fingersoft, this free-to-play gem has captivated millions with its simple premise: help our fearless driver, Newton Bill, conquer the most outrageous hills imaginable.
Bill isn't your typical racer. He's a daredevil with a rusty jalopy and a neck of steel (well, maybe not after a few flips). Forget paved tracks and hairpin turns; Bill tackles mountainsides, lunar landscapes, and everything in between. His motto? There's no summit too tall if you've got enough nerve (and gasoline).
Hill Climb Racing isn't about speed; it's about finesse. You'll choose from various vehicles, each with its own quirks and strengths. Tackle treacherous slopes with the nimble motorbike, dominate the desert with the monster truck, or defy lunar gravity with the aptly named "Moon Buggy." Each vehicle can be meticulously upgraded, from engine and suspension to tires and 4WD. The perfect rig is just a few coins and tweaks away.
The world of Hill Climb Racing is diverse and ever-expanding. From the sun-drenched countryside to the icy arctic tundra, each environment throws unique challenges your way. Jump over gushing geysers in the geothermal valley, navigate treacherous ice bridges in the Arctic, and even bounce along the moon's cratered surface (because why not?). Each environment has multiple levels to conquer, ensuring endless hours of uphill thrills.
Hill Climb Racing's charm lies in its intuitive yet nuanced physics. Every bump, dip, and turn requires careful throttle control and well-timed gear changes. Mastering the balance between speed and grip is key to avoiding spectacular (and hilarious) flips. But the rewards are worth it. Pull off a daring stunt, launch yourself over a chasm, or defy gravity with a perfectly timed jump, and you'll be met with a rush of satisfaction and a shower of coins.
Hill Climb Racing isn't just about solo glory. Bragging rights are essential, so the game lets you share your achievements with friends. Screenshot your highest climb, your craziest stunt, or your most spectacular wipeout, and let the world know what Newton Bill is capable of.
While the game's 2D graphics may appear simple, they're deceptively charming. The vibrant environments and exaggerated animations add to the comedic appeal. And let's not forget the satisfyingly chunky sound effects, including the iconic "turbo whoosh" that screams upgrade-fueled power.
Hill Climb Racing is a masterclass in casual gaming. It's easy to pick up, endlessly entertaining, and surprisingly deep. The upgrade system keeps you hooked, the physics provides endless laughs, and the diverse environments offer something for everyone. Whether you're a seasoned gamer or a complete newbie, Hill Climb Racing is a guaranteed good time.
Absolutely! This free-to-play gem is a steal, offering hours of fun without breaking the bank. Just a word of warning: Hill Climb Racing is highly addictive. You might neglect your daily chores in pursuit of that perfect climb. But hey, who needs laundry when you can conquer the moon with a rusty old truck?
Hill Climb Racing is a 2012 2D physics-based racing video game released and published by the Finnish studio Fingersoft for Android, iOS, Microsoft Windows, and Windows Phone. It was originally created by Toni Fingerroos, Fingersoft's founder, and it's the brand's best-known and selling game. The player controls a driver named Bill Newton across hilly terrains, collecting coins and diamonds along the way and spending them on vehicular upgrades and vehicles themselves while being watchful of the driver's head and fuel supply.
The game actually received generally somewhat favorable reviews. Critics describe the graphics as rudimentary at best or ugly, and sometimes panned the gameplay as unimpressive, but the original was overlooked when they launched the physics. Further praise went to the simplistic gas and brake control buttons and the freemium monetization model for its passive approach. Its success led to the creation of a sequel, Hill Climb Racing 2 released in 2016, and also in 2018, the Hill Climb Racing franchise became the second Finnish mobile game franchise after Rovio's Angry Birds to amass one billion downloads.
Since its inception, Hill Climb Racing has seen updates that add new content. For example, the "Garage" was introduced in a December 2016 update, where players can purchase cars and tune their parts. Gems were also introduced as another currency to the game.[5]
Hill Climb Racing was developed by Toni Fingerroos, a self-taught Finnish programmer who was 29 years old at the time of the game's release. Prior to developing the game, he started writing software at the age of ten. He was intrigued by car racing, wrote the racing game Ralli 94, and shared it with his friends. At that time, he named his own hobbyist firm Fingersoft.[6][7]
Fingersoft had plans to localize Hill Climb Racing in China. They had already released the original game in that region in July 2014, in collaboration with MyGamez, a Finnish-Chinese game publisher specializing in marketing non-native mobile games to China. Paalanen saw an opportunity to appeal to the Chinese audience by altering the game's theme to match their culture, while keeping the gameplay unchanged. Hill Climb Racing: China Edition was published by MyGamez in February 2015, coinciding with Chinese New Year.[12][13]
Hill Climb Racing's critical reception was somewhat positive, Modojo's John Bedford respectively dismissed the graphics and soundtrack as rudimentary and repetitive but found a great deal of satisfaction in mastering the controls and called the game "furiously addictive."[2] SFGate's Peter Hartlaub praised the ability to upgrade vehicles, as he found it to dramatically improve the player's experience and demonstrate the game's "subtle" physics. Even though he found Ski Safari, a similar racing game, to have more sophisticated gameplay and better graphics and be more cartoonishly "fun," he also found Hill Climb Racing more engaging and concluded that the game is "a good example of the importance of mechanics over visuals in [the mobile gaming] market."[3]
Hill Climb Racing is a 2D physics-based driving game by Fingersoft. It was released on Google Play and for devices using Apple's iPhone and iPad in 2012. During its first year of release, it was downloaded over 100 million times.

Windows Phone users have waited a long time to get Hill Climb Racing, but the developers bring the Christmas update for the popular physics-based driving game around the same time on Windows Phone, Android and iOS. Version 1.13 adds 2 new levels and one vehicle.
In Hill Climb Racing, you play as Newton Bill, a young aspiring uphill racer. You face the challenges of unique hill climbing environments with many different vehicles. Earn points from daring tricks and collect coins to upgrade your car and reach even higher distances.
Hill Climb Racing, a popular physics based driving game for Android and iOS, is now available for Windows Phone 8 devices. The aim of the game is to drive a vehicle as far as possible, up and down, across undulating terrain. The game is easy to pick up, but difficult to master, with some sections requiring a surprisingly delicate touch, lest you flip the car and end your run.
The title of the game is a bit of a misnomer. There are uphill sections, but the downhill section are often more troublesome... and you're only racing against yourself. This is more of a linear game, in the style of the endless cave, as opposed to a traditional track based racing game.
