Editor reviews
Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy is an unforgiving and frustrating climbing game, a spiritual successor to Jazzuo's Sexy Hiking. You control a man stuck in a cauldron, using a hammer to scale an enormous mountain filled with difficult terrain. The controls are deceptively simple—you move the hammer with your mouse—but the gameplay is all about mastering the physics of the environment. Each swing, jump, and climb can either bring you closer to the summit or send you tumbling back to earlier sections of the mountain, making every mistake costly.
The game is designed to make you feel every moment of frustration as you lose your progress over and over. As you ascend, Bennett Foddy offers philosophical commentary on the experience, adding a unique layer of reflection on the player's journey. The game is meant to challenge your patience, skill, and perseverance, with a satisfying reward awaiting those who can reach the top.
