How to play
- Gravity pulls the drone down; every tap gives it a lift.
- Flying through the gap between a girder and a tower scores a point.
- Touch an obstacle or the ground and the game is over; the top of the sky only stops you.
- As you score, the drone speeds up and the gaps shrink, up to a cap that is always beatable.

Description
Nimbo is an original Vexply one-button arcade game: you guide a little drone between hanging girders and windowed towers, and every gap you clear scores a point. It’s free in your browser, and the challenge grows with your score.
Nimbo is a one-button arcade game: a small round drone has to thread its way between hanging girders and windowed towers. It looks easy until the speed picks up. Every flight adds to your stats (best, average, longest flight) and there are 10 achievements to unlock, all saved only in this browser. Play with a mouse, keyboard or touch screen, in portrait or landscape.
Modes and difficulty
Easy
Wide gaps and a calm speed to learn the rhythm.
Normal
Starts roughly where Easy ends.
Hard
Smaller gaps, more speed and obstacles that change height more. Each level keeps its own record.
Tips
- Don’t over-tap: several short, regular taps are easier to control than one long burst.
- Watch the next gap, not the drone, so you set your height early.
- A low gap is often followed by a high one; start climbing before you leave it.
- If you lose the rhythm, use pause to breathe: the game isn’t lost.
Strategy
Nimbo is played with rhythm more than reflexes. The steadiest approach is to keep the drone at mid height with regular taps and correct only as needed before each gap. Start big height changes early, two or three taps ahead, rather than climbing all at once.
FAQ
Is Nimbo like Flappy Bird?
It shares the one-button flying idea, but it’s an original Vexply game with its own art, physics and music, and three difficulty levels.
Does each difficulty have its own record?
Yes: Easy, Normal and Hard save their best scores separately.
