Such a great game! Variety of puzzles and the story is full of suspense! Not too hard, not too easy. I only checked the walk through a couple times when I overlooked a clue. (Thank you for putting time stamped video links for each section!!) I have played the other Rusty Lake games over the years and each time a new one is released they get better and better! If you're reading this get the game.

WHAT did I just play?! (positive) I recently re-discovered this series earlier this week and was overjoyed when I went to buy the other titles to find out that this one was coming out! I absolutely adore the visuals and narratives of this series. It's perfectly creepy and the puzzles aren't horribly difficult to solve. Going back for achievements has felt slightly tedious in other games, but the journal save system helps that tremendously. Absolutely astounding game.

I've played every rusty lake game and waited what felt like a century for this one to come out and was greatly disappointed. yea I experienced a bug once and was able to get through it however the game itself was way too easy for rusty lake. it's a beautifully painted game with wonderful music. but the puzzles were easy and at some points just lazy. it's drawn out and it's only that real feel rusty lake only 20% of the time. I'm confused by others' reviews; did we just play the same game? *sigh

Hi Steph, Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We're sorry to hear Servant of the Lake felt short of your expectation. Would you be willing to share with us how we could improve in the future? We'd love to hear, for example, what kind of puzzles you really liked from our previous games and which ones failed you in SotL.
