Cairn – Beta Demo

Cairn is a survival-climbing adventure where you attempt to be the first human to scale the perilous Mount Kami.

Currently in development by The Game Bakers (creators of Furi and Haven), Cairn is a climbing adventure with a focus on realistic climbing mechanics. In the game you take on the role of Aava – a skilled climber who is attempting to climb to the peak of a mountain that no one’s ever reached before. You’ll have a trusty robot to assist you in different ways, but the climbing is all you.

The climbing in Cairn is much slower, methodical, and realistic than most climbing games. You move each limb individually, finding hand and foot-holds within the crevices of the rocks. You’ll use pitons, chalk and finger tape as you make your ascent, but you’ll also need to use food, water and medicine. You’ll be able to search for resources as you make your way to the summit.

The pacing is much more slow paced than the likes of Peaks of Yore and Jusant, but it makes for a unique and more realistic take on the genre that rewards you for your perseverance. Jump in now to lace up some climbing boots and get high!
