The Swiveller is one of the levels in Fall Guys. It is a SURVIVAL level and was first introduced in Season 1.[1]
Course description[]
The Swiveller consists of a ring platform with a rotating Blizzard Fan in the middle. The goal of the game is to run in circles to avoid being blown into the Slime by the fan. The floor constantly moves forward, which can assist players escaping the fan. Players need to survive until either the elimination quota has been reached or the round times out.
Three sets of obstacles may impede players who wish to qualify. The first a set of three Jump Ropes which players may need to jump over. The next is a set of two Rotating Beams, which players may also have to jump over. The final set of obstacles is a set of Rotating Hammers that players will need to avoid.

Squads[]
In Squads Show and other related modes, before Season 3, The Swiveller appears to run until a certain amount of players are eliminated (instead of running to a timer), at which point the scores are tallied and the lowest-scoring squads are eliminated. This notably gives little to no opportunity for squads that have fallen behind early to catch up.
Since Season 3 however, this now runs until all players have fallen into the slime, or until the round times out at 3 minutes.
Course strategy[]
- You cannot afford to run backwards even for a tiny bit; keep moving forwards.
- If you are about to be blown off, try jumping and diving against the fan, possibly landing on the other side of the wind current and saving yourself
- It can be hard to determine when best to jump over the Jump Ropes; where possible, try to run at a bar such that, due to the direction the bar is travelling in, it will hit you forwards rather than fling you back. These obstacles are what tends to ruin your progress the most on this course.
- By contrast, the beam and hammer obstacles are easier to dodge, simply jump over the beams and observe the directions the hammers are moving in before deciding how to dodge appropriately.
- Running on the inside of the rotating platform is faster than the outside.
- Spawn position can either help or ruin you here. A forward spawn will give you a relatively safer round, but if you get a spawn nearer the back, you'd better run.
Variations[]
Difficulty Variants[]
The sped-up beams, three hammers and multiple jump ropes on one wheel can make things hard, but if you are skilled enough, this will shorten the round, as many beans will faint at the beginning
Still Platform[]
It is better to wait for the jump ropes to come by, rather than running at full speed, as this will make you knock over a lot, and you'll quickly lose. Don't wait at the beams/hammers, just run past them as quickly as possible
Medal thresholds[]
- Gold - Qualified
- No medal - Eliminated
