The Game Bakers

We’re collabing with the community run Cairn Catalogue for a route setting competition! The competition starts now, and we’re hyped to see your route submissions in 3 categories: Brutal, Beautiful, and Creative. The winners, chosen by popular vote, will get a Your Kami Ascent T-Shirt!

We can't wait to get our hands on over the hill. It's got freedom to explore, difficult terrain to overcome and balance to manage, literally everything we love. You can get it now, in the Find your Way bundle with Cairn! @funselektor.bsky.social

Gear up! Getting ready for expeditions in Cairn’s free upcoming DLC, On The Trail, is easy. Pick the resources (and bag size) for your next climb and you’re good to go! Try some novel combinations of kit, or go in with nothing to lose!

Experience the adventure of a lifetime! Pro climber Aava is after her white whale; the never before summited Mt. Kami. On the journey up, she’ll meet people and unravel the secrets of the mountain, and of herself. Play Cairn in LudoNarraCon right now! @fellowtraveller.games

Our climbing game Cairn is BACK in @iii-initiative.bsky.social fest! One of the most exciting indie showcases of the year. We’re so proud of the mountain we handmade as a team, and we hope you’ll get Cairn and tell us about your adventures!

Find Haven in the Unmistakable Fest! We have an art showcase live today with the talented @beloup.bsky.social who worked on Concept art for Haven! Tune in!

If you want it, you gotta reach for it! When you have a stable foot and room to reach, you can stretch upwards to reach an essential hold. Careful though! Reaching too far could be exhausting!

On The Trail is the toughest training! In preparation for their ascent up Mt. Kami, Aava and Marco took on an epic set of challenge routes set by legendary Troglodyte climber Otto Mondo. But what many consider a lifetime achievement, Mondo considers a light warmup!

Hyoie O’Grady blew us away with his range and sincerity as Marco. Its difficult to capture both youthful exuberance and beyond-your-years wisdom; and even harder to crack Aava’s shell! Not only did Marco reach her, Hyoie won our heart!

A lone climber attempts the climb of her career, and the ascent of her lifetime! What drives her? And will it be enough to bring her to the top? Our award winning adventure game Cairn and Aava’s epic story will be in LudoNarraCon next month! @fellowtraveller.games

We’re so grateful for Sophia Eleni’s standout performance. Aava isn’t an easy character to love, and Sophia portrayed the obsessive, closed off and thorny climber brilliantly, making her feel achingly relatable and deeply human. No small feat, like climbing Kami!

YOU can help Cairn win GOTY! We’ve been nominated for Best Indie Game (Self Published) in the Golden Joystick Awards! We poured our souls into this climb, and its an honor to be standing among indie giants! You can vote for us below:

On the Trail is coming, save your energy! You won’t need to survive in the new areas like you did on Mt. Kami. Instead, keep track of your energy! Risky moves and falls will be especially draining, be careful! If you run out of energy, you’ll start over!

"It felt like the moment I turned 30, all my friends got really into climbing. Pretty perfect timing then that Cairn came out when it did. We scored it 91% in our review, which is high praise indeed." - @pcgamer.com Cairn is 20% off, you too can get into climbing! 😂 www.pcgamer.com/games/sim/ca...

Cairn’s free DLC On The Trail is coming October 29th, 2026! Three new climbing areas are calling! Climb as Aava or Marco as you try to pass the challenges laid by a legendary climber in Deep Water Solo!
