Tower Toppler is an arcade game released for MS-DOS in 1987, developed and published by Hewson Consultants Ltd. The game presents its action from a side view perspective, with the player's objective being to ascend a series of tall structures.

The player controls a character navigating the exterior walkways of a tower, aiming to reach its summit. Progression involves precise jumping across moving platforms and ledges to gain height, while avoiding or confronting various enemies that obstruct the path. A notable technical feature for its time was the method of presenting the tower environment; as the character moved around the tower's circumference, the background scenery rotated while the character remained centered, creating a distinctive visual effect of depth and movement.

Separate tower stages are connected by submarine voyages, which shift the gameplay to a side-scrolling sequence. During these segments, the player pilots a vessel to travel across the sea, collecting items for bonus points. This alternation between the primary climbing challenges and the transitional submarine sections structures the game's progression through its levels.
