Rusty Lake

We are Rusty Lake:

Creators of the praised Cube Escape series and the premium point-and-click adventures Rusty Lake Hotel and award-winning Rusty Lake: Roots.

Dear visitor,

Welcome to Rusty Lake, a surreal place where anything can happen. We offer you the most mysterious game series you'll ever play.

Why not try out our praised Cube Escape series first? Let the cubes guide you the eerie and atmospheric point-and-click adventures with an "escape room" feeling. Currently we have ten Cube Escape games taking place in the Rusty Lake universe. Cube Escape: Paradox is our latest installment which is combined with a short film! Download them for ten on iOS, Android or play on Desktop.

Next to our Cube Escape series we created three premium adventure games with unique story lines taking place in Rusty Lake as well. Serve deadly dinners to five animal-headed guests in Rusty Lake Hotel, expand the bloodline of the Vanderbooms in our award-winning adventure Rusty Lake: Roots or stop the ten plagues on a small island in Rusty Lake Paradise.

On the right, you can find a list of all our games sorted by release date.

On our game portal you can play our free games but also find other adventure, room escape and puzzle games. We selected games with a fascinating story, ambiance or unique game-play made by more forward-looking developers.

Check out our blog, social media or newsletter for new updates and content.

We wish you a pleasant stay in Rusty Lake!

We’re so thrilled to finally release the game and share it with you guys! We just hope you’ll enjoy it as much as we have during this whole process.

We want to keep everyone happy, especially now that it is a paid product. So if anything goes wrong with the game: bugs, issues with your device, desktop version etc, just send us an email and we will try to find a solution. The next days will be quite hectic but we will try to answer as quickly as possible.

Thanks for your great support during the development process, it kept us going on day and night:)

Special thanks again to Victor Butzelaar, we’ve tested the game hundreds of times and his specifically designed soundtrack for the game still impresses us. This also applies to Bob Rafferty and his powerful voice for Mr. Owl!

  5. Adam D says:

  6. witherlin says:

    Since you make the Desktop version of the game,why not to sell it on Steam so that we can buy it easily?

  7. Logan says:

    Just finished! It was amazing! what do we do with the secret code?

  8. Knight says:

    This game is awesome! Thank you for “Cube Escape”!

    So, i found a secret code, but how i can use it?

  9. William says:

    Instabought. Love the entire series and just played through this one. The only ingredient I’m missing are the tomatoes…. Where could they be???

    • Ashley says:

      The tomatoes are in the toilet of Mr. Boar’s room. You have to make him use the toilet twice, and when you collect the poop for the second time, keep clicking on the toilet. Blood or something should flow out and tomatoes come up.

  10. satscout says:

    Dangumit… I can’t find the blackberries or the red wine… *sobs* I found the tomatoes with patience and the thyme with luck on my second playthrough… had I gotten the potatoes I would have had 13 stars on the second time through. I can tell I’ll be playing again and again 🙂

    • Ashley says:

      The blackberries are in Ms. Pigeon’s room. Before you release the chicken from the strap things, flip the switch and shock him over and over. It takes a while, so be patient, but he’ll eventually cough up some blackberries.

    • Ashley says:

      And after you’ve killed Ms. Pheasant I believe… Either her or Ms. Pigeon. Whichever one had the red wine while in the lobby, her glass will be where she was and you can collect it. Same with the white wine.

    Really great game as always! Thanks again for it!
    For a bookworm like me it’s trully the first time I actually dig a game serie, got no other one on my phone or else but yours is brilliant.

  12. Chloe says:

    Has anyone figured out how to get into the basement?????

  13. Is says:

    Yes!!! I’ve got finally the secret code!
    Can’t wait to see your next episode!
    Thank you for that amazing and wonderfull game.
