I have been waiting for Witchbrook as well. It looks really fun. Never heard of Cairn but dam does it look really interesting as well.

Cairn looks like a prettier Jusant

It’s quite different from Jusant. I found Jusant to be to arcade racers what Cairn is to simulation racers. Jusant was like a puzzle game with a climbing aesthetic, whereas I found Cairn to be truly about the climbing.

Can’t say I’m “stoked,” but those two looked the most interesting in a list full of AAA licensed garbage.

I played the demo for Cairn and genuinely can’t remember the last time I had a sense of accomplishment in a game that compared to teaching the top of the demo climb… And then the reveal of how much farther you’d go in the full game. It was very exciting for me. A very novel, interesting experience for me.
As for Witchbrook, I love Stardew Valley and magical fantasy, so that is looking like a no brainer.

I feel the same. I am so tired of AAA games that I barely even look at them any more and I play a lot of games.
