Controls you need to know
Summary
The whole game runs on movement, jumping, and camera control. Get comfortable with these before you worry about anything else, because every obstacle on the mountain is cleared with some combination of the three.
How checkpoints work
CheckThere are 40 checkpoints spread across Mount Sawit, one at the end of each section of the climb. Touch a checkpoint marker and your position is saved to it. If you fall off a platform at any point, the game sends you back to the last checkpoint you touched rather than to the very beginning. There is no time limit, so you can take as long as you need between attempts.
- Touch each checkpoint marker as you pass it to lock in your progress
- After a fall, you restart from the most recent checkpoint you reached
- All 40 checkpoints are available without any payment
- The summit is the final checkpoint and marks the end of the game
Getting past a section that keeps stopping you
Step
Work through the steps below in order before you try again.
- Rotate the camera move your mouse to look at the obstacle from a different angle so you can judge the gap or height properly
- Check your run-up back away from the edge and make sure you have open space to build speed before you jump
- Adjust your timing jump a fraction of a second earlier or later than you have been, since small shifts make a big difference on narrow platforms
- Look for another path if the direct route keeps failing, scan left and right to see whether a different line gets you to the same platform
- Use the checkpoint if you are completely stuck, let yourself fall and restart from your saved checkpoint with a fresh attempt
Tips for reaching the summit
TipsPalm Mount has no timer and no competitive pressure. The obstacles are nature-themed — rocks and foliage — and the Easy difficulty means every section has a clear solution if you slow down and read the terrain.
- Once you've reached the summit, trying to beat your own time on a second run is a fun extra challenge
- Other players in the same world don't affect your run, so you climb at your own pace regardless of who else is around

Glossary
Glossary- Obby
- Short for obstacle course — a Roblox game genre where you jump and climb through a series of challenges to reach a finish line.
- Checkpoint
- A marker you touch during the climb that saves your position, so a fall sends you back there instead of to the start.
- Run-up
- The distance you travel before a jump to build enough speed to clear a gap or reach a higher platform.
- Summit
- The top of Mount Sawit and the final destination — reaching it means you've cleared all 40 checkpoints.
Common questions
FAQWhat happens when I fall off a platform?
You respawn at the last checkpoint you touched. Your progress up to that point is kept, so you never have to redo the entire mountain after a single fall.
Do I need to spend Robux to finish the game?
All 40 checkpoints can be cleared without spending anything.
Does another player on the mountain affect my run?
Other players can share the same world, but they don't interfere with your progress. You climb at your own pace regardless of who else is around.
