Reach New Heights in Ladder LadBUCK Games has officially unveiled Ladder Lad, a quirky new 2D platformer that puts an unusual twist on the genre by making ladders the star of the entire adventure. Developed by BUCK Games in collaboration with BUCK, the globally recognized creative company behind projects for brands such as Nike, Apple, Netflix, IBM, and Airbnb, as well as work on Love, Death + Robots and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Ladder Lad builds its gameplay around one simple tool: the ladder. As players ascend, they’ll face physics-based platforming challenges, hazardous environments, and deadly obstacles while mastering intuitive ladder controls. New upgrades add even more possibilities, including a hot air balloon attachment, a reality-bending Warped Ladder, and the Big Flying Ladder. Ladder Lad is shaping up to be one of 2027’s most delightfully unconventional platformers, proving that even the simplest idea can lead to something surprisingly creative.
