Cairn Gameplay
Cairn is a survival rock-climbing game that simulates real-life rock climbing. Players will have to gauge appropriate paths to take according to their capabilities, resources, and climbing know-how. As with real-life sport, Cairn will include ever-changing weather and the in-game day-night cycles.
And although Cairn also heavily features exploration by including ruins and relics for players to discover, the bulk of the gameplay lies in the act of rock climbing itself, down to the crucial micro-decisions involved in rock climbing, such as finding stable footholds, using pitons, and managing one’s energy in the middle of a climb.
