Vex 7

Five minutes into a run and you're already dodging shooting knives, ducking falling blocks, and eyeing up a double jump potion you're not sure you'll survive reaching. That's Vex 7 in a nutshell: quick, deadly, and weirdly satisfying every time you don't die.

Your stickman isn't just running, they're parkouring, which means leaping, sliding and vaulting through obstacle courses built to kill. Spikes want to skewer you, security cameras trigger laser beams the second you're spotted, and every level throws a fresh combination of hazards at your reflexes.

It's part of the long-running Vex franchise, so if you've played the earlier entries you'll recognize the DNA, sharper hazards, same punishing precision. It's a solid pick alongside other jumping games if you like your platforming with a side of instant death.

No installs, no accounts, just you, a stickman, and a level full of things trying to end your run early. Works on desktop and mobile, straight in the browser.

Get your stickman from the start of each level to the end without getting skewered, sliced, crushed, or zapped. Spikes, shooting knives, falling blocks and laser beams triggered by security cameras all stand between you and the finish.

Use parkour moves to leap over hazards and keep your run flowing, and grab the double jump potion when you see one, it opens up routes you couldn't reach on a single jump. A brief level map tutorial at the start walks you through your stickman's signature moves before you're on your own.

Watch for security cameras especially. Get spotted and you'll trigger a laser beam, so timing your run past them matters as much as timing your jumps.
