The Cairn demo update is here - and you can win some merch!

Hi climbers,

It’s time! Ghostly apparitions are now available in Cairn’s demo. They’re not all that scary though, we think.

You can climb Tenzen alongside selected community, dev and content creators ghosts, and see what everyone’s been getting up to. Maybe you can try something new?

We’re bringing the routes contest back! We're excited to see what you can come up with. Here are the categories :

• Most unexpected route - can you find one no ghost is taking?

• Most difficult free solo route - no pitons!

• Funniest route - get creative

To enter, send us a screenshot of the route recap screen at fanart@thegamebakers.com before October 20th, 2025, at 6pm CEST (9am pst)

The winners will receive some of the exclusive Cairn merch, like these postcards of the posters in the demo!

A special thank you to Alex Baena, Mugthief, and Ravs for joining the ghosts ✨
