The player must reach a checkered platform at the top of a specified amount of rope into the skies whilst collecting the occasional flag every 10 metres or so excluding the goal and avoiding the electricity that comes down said rope. The player will be unable to climb beyond flags without collecting them. Klepto flies beside the rope at the average speed needed to clear each level. For each level, both the required distance and time limit varies. Alternating between and allows for faster climbing of the rope. The higher Ace or Clay climbs, the darker the background will become.
