Lurking Giants City Map
City map guide for Lurking Giants: towers, rooftops, billboards, survivor vertical play, and giant counters.
The City map transforms Lurking Giants into a vertical survival puzzle — towers, billboards, tunnels, and central plazas give survivors rooftop escape routes while giants struggle with blocked sightlines and truss stair geometry.
Landmarks
Towers: Primary survivor refuge — low connected rooftops beat isolated skyscrapers. Billboards: Cover backs during relocation. Tunnels: Pulse-transition corridors. Central Building: High traffic — pass through, do not camp.
Survivor Vertical Play
Rooftop loop: climb (lantern off) → cross jumpable gap → descend before next pulse. Sprint E between buildings. Strategy tier A on survivor tiers. Walkthrough: survivor round.
Giant City Tactics
Do not chase rooftop campers vertically — camp ground exits. Haunt stair tops per abilities. Pulse windows matter more here due to vision blocks. Giant guide: hunting.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is City easier for survivors?
Yes. Towers and vertical cover block giant vision between pulses.
Why do giants hate City?
Towers everywhere block sightlines and create stuck geometry on stairs.
Is there fall damage?
Inconsistent during rework — test carefully when jumping from rooftops.
Can giants climb towers?
Yes but time-consuming. Survivors exploit this delay.
Lantern and stairs?
Unequip lantern before climbing — equipped items block ascents.
