How it feels

A slow, meticulous climb where one mistake sends you tumbling back, testing patience and precision against a surreal, indifferent mountain.

What players say

Players say the controls are tough to learn, especially with the spear's charge and grab mechanic, and the level design is punishing but the map is short. Some report camera issues on keyboard, while others praise the tight controls and satisfying climb.
