How to play Nest Egg Climb
Your avocado bounces automatically โ your job is to steer it onto the next platform with โ โ (or A/D), or by holding the left or right half of the screen on your phone. Every foot of height grows the nest egg.
Green platforms are steady index funds โ solid every time. Blue ones drift with the market. The cracked amber ones are risky bets: they hold exactly one bounce, then crumble.
Gold springs are 401(k) matches โ free money that launches you far higher than a normal bounce.
The higher you climb the trickier the platforms get. Hit the gold line at $1,000,000 and youโre officially retired; the climb keeps going for the high score. Fall off the bottom and the run ends.
Tips & tricks
- The screen wraps left-to-right โ walking off one edge to reach a platform on the other side is often the safest route.
- Never plan two risky (cracked) platforms in a row: after the first crumbles you need somewhere solid to land.
- Springs beat everything โ a small detour to a 401(k) match usually gains more height than the โdirectโ route.
- Steer while you rise, not while you fall: adjusting early gives you the whole arc to line up the landing.
