The Past Within
Adventure
November 2, 2022
The Past Within is a co-op adventure game. Two players, each playing on a different device, solve puzzles together. One of them explores 2D sections, the other 3D. Both share clues, and actions in one reality affect the other.
Samsara Room
Adventure
April 29, 2020
Samsara Room is a surrealistic point-and-click adventure game produced by developers from the Dutch studio Rusty Lake. The player's goal is to find a way out of the title room.
Rusty Lake Paradise
Adventure
January 11, 2018
Rusty Lake Paradise is an adventure game, in which the player assumes the role of a son of a deceased woman. He travels to his family island that is harassed by ten biblical plagues. The gameplay features exploration, conversations with NPCs and riddle solving.
Rusty Lake: Roots
Adventure
October 20, 2016
A point ‘n’ click adventure game developed by Rusty Lake, the creators of the well-received Rusty Lake Hotel. In Rusty Lake: Roots, we assume the role of James Vanderboom who inherited a house and a special seed, which, if sown, will enable him to start his own family. The action is set in the 19th and 20th century, and the player controls three generations of Vanderbooms. Although Rusty Lake: Roots features many references to previous works of the studio, we don’t need knowledge of them to understand the plot. The gameplay is based on exploration of our surroundings and solving logic and environmental puzzles. Moreover, talking with non-player characters is also an important aspect of the game. The on-screen events, the characters, and puzzles alike have a surreal, even dark feel to them. The atmosphere is emphasized by two-dimensional graphics and matching music.
Rusty Lake Hotel
Adventure
December 14, 2015
A surrealistic point-and-click adventure game developed by the Dutch Rusty Lake studio. In the game we are taken to a mysterious animal hotel which is visited by five guests. Our task is to “take care” of them properly — kill them, that is. We have to tend separately to each of the five unfortunate guests, shortening their life by various means, for example poisoning. The gameplay mechanics are typical for a classical point-and-click production and boil down to visiting subsequent locations in search of useful items that are necessary to solve puzzles. While playing, we have to exhibit considerable amounts of ingenuity, imagination, perceptiveness, and deductions skills. Rusty Lake Hotel is characterized by relatively simple 2D graphics and a dark, somewhat surrealistic atmosphere.
