Add on
Add on is one of the most popular games played between at least two climbers. Add on requires that both climbers choose a hold on the wall to designate as a starting hold. After the starting hold, each climber takes turns adding one move to the initial starting hold. A variation on this game is "hands only", where the chosen holds, designated for use by only the hands and feet, can be placed anywhere.
Take Away
Take away is another popular game and played between two or more climbers. Take away can be seen as the opposite of Add on. In Take away, both climbers decide on a route of approximately 20 holds that they can both do. Climbers take turns removing one hold from the sequence. The game is won when one climber is not able to finish the sequence, but the other can.
Taps
Taps is played with one or more players. Climbers select a hold that they designate as a starting hold. Climbers then compete to see which climber can tap the most holds without moving from the initial starting hold.
Blind Climb
In Blind Climb, several climbers choose an initial climbing sequence. Then, each climber takes turns with a blindfold to see who can progress the furthest on the sequence.
