Developer Rusty Lake is celebrating 10 years of eerie and incredibly well-reviewed games with a brand new, and completely free, point-and-click title for you to enjoy. Not only that, it’s announced the next Rusty Lake title and has some merch on offer to boot.
Don’t worry if you’ve never heard of Rusty Lake. It’s both a developer and that same developer’s kind of creepy series of unique indie games. They’re great at innovating on what’s come before and producing unexpected yet ugly, enjoyable games you can’t help but fall in love with. Even if they’re too scary for our Editor-in-Chief to play
Get The Mr. Rabbit Magic Show for free while you wait for Servant of the Lake
The new free game, The Mr. Rabbit Magic Show, is a point-and-click mystery set in the Cube Escape series, which is where Rusty Lake got its start. It’s designed to keep you on your toes and reimmerse you in what makes the developer’s games great as you eagerly await its next one.
What is that next game you ask? Well, it’s Servant of the Lake. This is the next mainline Rusty Lake entry, in which you’ll explore the history of the Vanderboom Brothers. It’s got 20 acts to work through, a magical soundtrack, unexpected voice actors, and twists and turns that’ll make your head spin.
However, the game isn’t quite available yet, but if you like what you see, I’ve got great news for you. The Rusty Lake roster of games is on offer at 66% off for a limited time to celebrate the studio’s 10th anniversary.
Not only that, but you can get some awesome and extremely limited merch from none other than Lost in Cult. These are a more tangible way to show your love for the developer, and I recommend picking something up because you’re definitely going to fall in love with this series as a newcomer. The items are as follows.
- A re-release anniversary edition of The Paradox Comic Book by Lau Kwong Shing
- A limited edition Anniversary Vinyl featuring the greatest hits from Rusty Lake, performed by Victor Butzelaar
- A Rusty Lake Deck of Cards, designed by Maarten Pelders, inspired by the series’ surreal symbols and characters
This is one of those bits of news you might not expect to mean much, but there’s so much here to dig into. Give that free game a go, maybe buy a few of those cheap titles, and show an indie dev your love.
