How to drive the forklift well
Tips
The fork is not just decoration — you raise and lower it with E and Q to match the height of whatever obstacle is in front of you.
- Match the fork height to the obstacle before you try to climb it.
- Tap WASD in short bursts for fine movement rather than holding it down.

Common questions
FAQDo I need to spend Robux to finish all 35 stages?
No. The Premium skin is cosmetic only. Every stage can be cleared without spending anything.
I keep failing the same obstacle — what should I try?
Change your fork height using Q or E before approaching the obstacle again.
Is the Christmas event separate from the main 35-stage obby?
Yes. The Christmas event has its own 15 stages, and its three badges are earned there rather than in the main obby.
Do I need to join the Appalling Games group to play?
No, group membership is not required to play. Joining does unlock the free Ice Forklift skin.
