Slap Tower is a popular obstacle-based multiplayer game on the online platform Roblox, created by the group 크롱 스튜디오. It was first released in March 2025 and quickly gained popularity for its simple but chaotic gameplay involving climbing a tall tower while dodging and using giant slapping hands to knock other players off.
