Get ready for a feather-ruffling climb to the top as Overtop clambers to the world of Xbox.
From ChiliDog Interactive and Astra Playroom (no, not Astro’s Playroom!), Overtop is a challenging yet charming platformer that has landed on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.
Priced at a wallet-friendly £4.19, this game invites players to take on the role of a determined owlet on a mission to return to its nest atop a towering mountain.
A Bird’s-Eye View of Peril
In Overtop, you’ll guide the owlet through a series of treacherous levels, navigating cliffs, chasms, and other obstacles that stand in your way.
Imagine the perilous journey of a tiny bird, braving the elements and the treacherous terrain, with only its determination and instincts to guide it. With its focus on precision platforming and a “one life” mechanic, you’ll get a challenging but rewarding experience in return for your money and time.
Master the Art of Avian Acrobatics
To succeed in Overtop, you’ll need to master the owlet’s unique movement abilities. Leap across precarious platforms with pinpoint accuracy, glide through the air with grace and control, and utilise your momentum to overcome challenging obstacles.
But be warned: one misstep, one poorly timed jump, and it’s a long fall back to the bottom. The higher you climb, the further you’ll fall, making every leap a test of your nerves and precision.
Features That Will Make You Fly High (and Maybe Fall Flat)
- Challenging Platforming: Master the art of jumping, gliding, and manoeuvring through a variety of challenging levels. Each level presents a unique set of obstacles and platforming challenges, requiring you to adapt your strategies and hone your skills to progress.
- One Life, High Stakes: With only one life to spare, every jump and every landing counts. The higher you climb, the further you’ll fall, making each step a test of your nerves and precision. This unforgiving mechanic adds a layer of tension and excitement to the gameplay.
- Charming Visuals: Immerse yourself in a beautifully crafted world with charming cartoon graphics and a vibrant colour palette. The game’s visuals are both delightful and atmospheric, creating a captivating world for the owlet’s adventure.
- Atmospheric Soundtrack: Enjoy a soothing and atmospheric soundtrack that complements the game’s challenging gameplay. The music sets the mood for both moments of tranquility and heart-pounding tension.

Overtop Description
OVERTOP is a game about an owlet that fell out of its nest and now must, at all costs, return to its nest at the top of the mountain. The game combines charming cartoon graphics with hardcore gameplay. In this platformer, you have only one goal — to climb to the top, overcoming cliffs and chasms. This is not an easy task, so be prepared to give it your all! The stakes rise with each jump, and any fall will push you away from your cherished goal. Don’t forget the main rule of the feathered club: “The higher you climb, the more painful it is to fall!”
