About
Cairn’s realistic simulation allows intuitive climbing: find the best holds and place your hands and feet seamlessly with simple controls. Adapt your posture, effort and balance —if you're not careful, you will fall!
As pro climber Aava, you embark on the ascent of Mount Kami, a summit that has never been reached. Along the journey, meet unexpected companions and hear from those left on the ground. Discover the mountain's history and decide what Aava is willing to sacrifice to achieve her dream.
You are free to climb anywhere. Explore the mountain, read the rock face from the ground and plan your route carefully to reach the top. Solve problems while on the wall to navigate difficult sections. You can climb on anything, so choose your path wisely!
Climbing is challenging: each wall feels like a boss fight. A thrilling challenge for those eager to test themselves, but you can also adjust the difficulty to customise your experience.
Manage your resources to survive during the long ascent: pitons, chalk, finger tape... but also food, water and medicine. Set up bivouacs and explore the mountain to find resources to reach the summit.
An unforgettable experience from the makers of Furi and Haven, with music and sound design by the team behind Limbo, Inside, Control and Cocoon, and art and story by renowned comic-book artist Mathieu Bablet.

Não sei o que dizer, não sei explicar a sensação tive jogando Cairn, posso dizer que cada segundo, cada queda, cada piton quebrado e recuperado, cada garrafa de agua cheia, cada pegada no ultimo segundo, cada um das imagens, trilha sonora. TUDO nesse jogo me deixou feliz, amei cada segundo, cada batalha, e aprendi muito sobre eu mesmo. GOAT a sensação, que Aava descreve sobre o que é escalar uma montanha é verdadeira. SENSACIONAL, estou emocionado ainda de lembrar de tudo que passei nesse jogo, ascender me fez melhor. Tirando alguns stuttering no desempenho do jogo, me fez ser criança é amar jogar Cairn. Umas das melhores experiências gamers. Climbot ficara pra sempre ao lado.
This has to be one of the most frustrating and infuriating games I have EVER played. Any progress takes SO long, save points are so far apart, the game tells you you should allow it to auto select your limbs for you (when choosing which limb to move next) but that's a terrible idea, you really have to select the limbs yourself and that process is infuriating too. You'd think pointing the stick to the bottom left when you're selecting your limb would select your left foot, but you'd be wrong. There are times when it feels like you're playing Baby Steps - the smallest little ledge becomes a challenge as Aava puts both feet behind her head and one hand into her ass while you're trying to pull yourself up onto something slightly above chest height. That being said I'm still into it, the story, art, atmosphere is exceptional, but the point I'm at now forces me to quit after an hour or so because it just makes me too angry. Every single mistake is punished BRUTALLY and even when not actually dying I just end up eating like 3 full meals on the side of a rock face and still starving within a day. Not the relaxing, zen experience I was hoping for. So I guess "constantly enraged but unable to stop playing" sums it up for me. *edit: I hate this game, still constantly enraged but I am gonna stop playing, the physics make no sense, you find a perfect place to hang? nope you're falling, you find a place where you're spread eagled across the underside of two rocks? yea that's a totally stable resting spot. Its a constant ragebait cycle of trying to learn what the games wants you to do, which seems to be different every rockface and every time you need to relearn it the game will waste HOURS of your time.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

The first thing to say about the game is that this is much more like a Jump King / Getting Over It / QWOP type game than a serious climbing sim. You are playing as a character that would struggle with a staircase, and in climbing sections you can be flat footed no worse than standing on a floor and the character will eventually start screaming due to the stress on her arms (To be fair, think about how much stress is on your arms when standing, wow!) Gameplay aside, the game constantly bombards you with overly long cutscenes interrupting your play, and it doesn't help that the character you are playing as, for better or worse, is a terrible human being. You are playing as one of the most unlikable characters to be a protagonist in recent video games and you are going to be hearing from her A LOT.
Причина тряски?! Да ты че....б*яяяяяяяяяяя
今年的最佳独立游戏,完美诠释第九艺术的魅力
如果你还有耐心,有时间,孤山独影绝对时必玩之作。
很喜欢这个游戏的美术,玩法也很有代入感,穴居人的洞穴相当有意思,但是不知道为什么七八个小时之后,xbox手柄频繁出现延迟情况,害我在半山腰上突然变成八十岁太奶手脚不听使唤…换成steamdeck之后又出现按键突然没反应的情况,对于一个要到营地才能存档的游戏简直是太影响体验了
Skillup said it best "If you like games, this game is for you." They nailed the scale of the mountain. It's great. EDIT: THE RAVE CAVE IS GLORIOUS! Whoever programmed the head bop deserves a raise. Beautiful Remix too.
Cine. Este juego es la polla. Vine a escalar montañas y me quede por el mensaje 9.4/10 Gracias por escalar la cima. ¿Y para ti, cual es tu cima?
One of those experiences that stick with you forever. Also once the gameplay clicks it's super addicting.
