Obby, parkour or platformer?

You will see all three words for the same kind of game. An obby is an obstacle course, a word made popular by Roblox players. Parkour games focus on fast movement across rooftops and walls. A platformer is the wider family: any game where jumping from platform to platform is the main action. Every game on this list fits at least one of them, and if you came for parkour games online, they all run in your browser.

Tips to beat any obby

• Look before you jump: move the camera to see where you will land.
• Short taps for small gaps: not every jump needs full speed.
• Use checkpoints: learn one section at a time instead of rushing the whole course.
• Play it twice: the second run is always faster once you know the route.
• On a phone, slow down: touch controls reward calm, precise jumps more than speed.
