Games Like 2 spike pits

2 spike pits is this weirdly satisfying little platformer that feels like a minimalist puzzle game with a sense of humor. You control a small character stuck in a world of just two spike pits with basic platforms and buttons. The goal is to survive as long as you can by jumping between safe zones while avoiding the deadly spikes that pop up in rhythmic patterns. What starts off simple quickly becomes a test of timing and reflexes as the sequences get more unpredictable. The game leans into its absurd simplicity with a dry, almost meditative vibe and a retro pixel aesthetic that’s easy to get sucked into. There’s no hand holding and barely any instructions but that’s part of the charm. Each run feels different and there’s something oddly calming about getting into the flow of the jumps even when it’s challenging. It’s short, focused and perfect for quick bursts when you want something clever and low pressure.
