Editorial interest 87/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A free hill-climb driving game with nine maps, 24 cars, ghost races, upgrades, and browser, Android, and Linux versions.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-10 issue.

Field notes

Hillbound combines endless procedural terrain with nine themed maps, including Boston, the Moon, and Jupiter. Progression uses driving-earned coins, six upgrade tracks, 12 bolt-on modifications, and map tokens rather than purchases. Its ghost system compares players with nearby recorded runs and their own earlier attempts, while saves remain on-device; optional Nextcloud synchronization and race-history sharing are described for supported builds.
