Scaling new heights is always a welcome thing for any developer, and The Game Bakers is celebrating the latest feather in its cap as Cairn sold 200,000 copies over the course of its debut weekend. A tweet from the studio behind a very compelling – and unique – survival experience showcases its own ascent to success in what many other indie studios might be dreaming of.
It seems that a lot of people have taken a shine to Aava’s effort to go where nobody else has dared venture, and The Game Bakers has managed to respond to its success with a very welcome blend of humor and humility. For those unaware of Cairn, it’s a survival climbing game where players seek to reach the peak of the perilous Mount Kami. Every surface is climbable, though it may not always be practical, and Aava must manage her supplies along with battling hunger, thirst and the cold.
Out now on PS5 and PC, we certainly had a lot of good things to say about the gruelling, but ultimately rewarding experience it presents in our review. If the responses to the studio’s tweet are any indication, players share our sentiments about Aava’s climb and claim to fame.
