The Upper Hand

The Upper Hand is a deck-building platformer about Gen-0, who is stranded in a foreign world after being captured. You climb through different worlds to collect the parts needed to rebuild his spaceship and return home.

Climb through biomes

Climb higher by gripping different holds with your hands and feet. As you progress, you encounter environmental holds and learn their limitations. Distinct biomes bring their own environmental challenges, with different possible solutions that let you choose your route. You can improve your skills, pursue new abilities and customize Gen-0’s apparel.

Build your deck

Use cards with poses and abilities to shape your playstyle and tackle each challenge. Completing level achievements earns points, which you can spend in the shop on new powers for Gen-0. You can also pursue more efficient routes and faster times to score points for the shop.

Original soundtrack

The soundtrack includes music inspired by jazz, city pop, synth-hop and other styles.
