Cave Copter is a one-button flying game. A friendly little copter flies through a winding cave on its own, and you decide whether it climbs or drops.

Hold to go up, let go to drop, and stay clear of the walls and the rock pillars. Gold stars float along the safe way. You have 3 hearts, and a bump costs one. Play Levels, where you fly to a checked gate, or Endless flight to see how far you can get.

Also called: helicopter game, hold to fly game, cave flying game, copter cave game, cave copter

How to play

  1. Open the game and play level 1, or pick Endless flight. Win a level to open the next.
  2. Hold the screen, or press Space, Up, W or Enter, to fly up. Let go to drop.
  3. A short tap gives a small lift. Short taps keep you steady in a narrow spot.
  4. Stay off the cave walls and the rocks. Take the wider way past each pillar.
  5. Grab the gold stars on the way.
  6. You have 3 hearts. A bump costs one, then the copter blinks for a moment and cannot be hurt. In Levels, reach the checked gate to win. Esc or P pauses.

Tips

Questions

Is Cave Copter free, and do I need to download anything?

Yes, it is free. Cave Copter plays right in your web browser with no download, no sign-up and no ads on the site. Just open the page and start.

Can I play on my phone or tablet?

Yes. Touch and hold the screen to fly up, and let go to drop. On a computer, hold the mouse button, or use Space, Up or W.

Can I lose?

Yes. You have 3 hearts, and when they are gone the flight ends. You can try again. A bump also gives you a short moment of safety, so one slip does not end it.

What is the difference between Levels and Endless flight?

Levels end at a checked gate, 120 meters away at first and 40 meters farther each level, and your progress is saved. Endless flight has no gate, gets harder the farther you go and keeps your best distance.
