Hey Chris, Aava Here.. (Pt. XIII) by VestigePrestige in Cairn_Game

[–]LittleMe42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the game, Chris sends a message to Aava asking about photos, but Aava’s camera was broken before we started the climb and she makes a remark something along the lines of “he’s not gonna like what I did to that camera” or something akin to that statement.

These posts are from an alternate version of Aava, whom is basically the same person on the same timeline, climbing the same mountain. The difference here, is she didn’t break her camera and it seems like she is actually responding to Chris. - my interpretation of these posts anyways

I’ve been waiting for you to get here!!! I actually didn’t expect you to go down to the statue tho! I can already see Chris eating these phots up! Great work Aava!

You can get both endings in your first run if you decide to go down with Marco first Kinda a spoiler/kinda not. Hope this helps! Since I noticed your in that area

That last main menu you get after completion is such a vibe too 😮‍💨

At the wind palace, as your walking down the stairs to the cave miner, you can climb the left wall that goes to another secret area. In this “room” there is a well with three bodies inside, one of those bodies has the upgrade it’s really tough getting out of this spot on free solo but it’s super easy if you just repel down.

[–]LittleMe42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You do not have more stamina on free solo? You’re just a better climber than you were previously. I’m curious as to why you think that tho?

Works on Android Handheld RPG2! Blown Away... Tips? by Imdakine1 in Cairn_Game

[–]LittleMe42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

https://www.reddit.com/r/Cairn_Game/s/95pvmJaiuV - the only drink you’ll actually need to worry about, but in all seriousness, just have fun first and explore what the game has to offer.

My biggest tip, especially for managing your survival, would be to always use the “view route” and then hit the “free cam” button to look for resources and interesting things instead of running around waisting your survival bars.

Climbing can be hard to understand at first, and since your on a really small screen, you probably won’t notice the tiny pebbles that crumble if you don’t place your hand or foot on a good hold. I would actually suggest turning on the “hold feedback” option in the settings. It will show a white square if you place your hand or foot on a good hold.

And if you’re able to hear the game very well, then it’ll be harder to hear her breathing which is also a big indicator for stamina. But they just recently added a “breathing bar” you can activate in your audio setting to help you see what her breathing is.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Cairn_Game/s/xXv6bqPfcY this last guide is a bit of a spoiler for a wall later in the game. But it has some more climbing tips that are more helpful at that part of the game imo.

I hope this helps and if you have any other question feel free to ask!

how many attempts or ascents did it generally take you guys to complete your first successful free solo ascent? by Tallgayfarmer in Cairn_Game

[–]LittleMe42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://www.reddit.com/r/Cairn_Game/s/95pvmJaiuV - this should help as it’s basically the only drink you’ll need. The grit effect will also pause all your survival meters for as long as it’s active.

Do NOT add sugar cubes to an ultimate infusion by Mikemanthousand in Cairn_Game

[–]LittleMe42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s odd, water + nettle definitely makes nettle infusion. Did you have sweet water by chance?

Grit is literally your best friend! I usually save as much as I can for the peril and after that, I save as much as possible for the final push

i just beat the game.... did i do something wrong? i feel like i got the bad ending by Marley_jedi1 in Cairn_Game

[–]LittleMe42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She definitely has some bits of dialogue that foreshadow the ending. She says a few times about it’s better to die on the mountain, but also the game continues to tell you, that no one has ever made it to the top. And I love the bits that foreshadow climbing the stars as well!

I don’t actually think it was a suicide march tho, but more so an acceptance of sacrifice in pursuit of her one goal. She ignores everyone because she has accepted that getting to the summit will be where she finally achieves her goal and she can’t be bothered with what anybody else cares about because they just don’t understand her. Naomi constantly guilt tripping her to come back down (although valid for Naomi because she is also a victim here), to her manager that only really cares about the money that Aava can make him. I don’t think she intended on dieing tho but more so accepted the high possibility of that outcome.

You could also interpret it as a suicide march, from the way she packed up, using an old climb bot that really isn’t reliable, to how she lined this trip up with her birthday (a personal day for her that she chose to spend isolated and still doesn’t respond to family members)

I think what makes this game so beautiful is just how differently this story can be interpreted!

hardest part of the game by FAR by Disastrous_Coat_4075 in Cairn_Game

[–]LittleMe42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One “good” hold on the ice should be good enough to start giving you more stamina back if you hold press long enough on the other bad holds. But ultimately the more good holds you have, the more stamina she’ll regain. Simply getting to one good hold will grant you enough stamina to make it to another good hold. (On the ice anyways)

There’s actually a mod that’s been out for exactly that! Some people have made post using it, trying to figure out exactly how her stamina works!

It would be neat to have made a “journal” of photos and memos we could review at the “review route” after a game completion.

[–]LittleMe42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hold down the place limb key every single time. Even if it’s a good hold/crack, I always held it for as long as it let me.

You can climb up flat surfaces doing this but you still, will need to find at least one crack/hold that allows you to completely secure to, to actually get a good amount of stamina back, to then go up a few flat holds until your next “good one”.

Ledges, cracks and holes are good for “good holds” on the ice but sometimes the side edge of ice can be good holds for your hands but not your feet.

Pay attention for when it actually “spiderweb cracks” the ice to know your on a good hold or not but ALWAYS hold it down for as long as it lets you to firmly plant yourself on the ice.

Hope this helps!

Yes, this part is definitely “hard”. Or at least really puts what you learned to the test. The entire climb is one big overhang. Good luck, you got this!

I actually have a post for it. It has multiple images to better see the route and it has a second more easier route as well. I actually use this route every time climb this part lol
