6 itemsAbout the Game
Red Lake is a surreal psychological horror game where your only means of understanding reality is a notebook.
The forest will not let you leave. To go deeper — and finally beneath the surface of the red lake itself — you must seek out its anomalies: objects warped by static, humming with a white noise that drifts between the trees. Find them. Watch them. Write them down.
Key Features:
The notebook.
Your only tool, and your only interface. There is no HUD. You reveal and document each anomaly by writing about it, by hand, on the page.
A Shifting Reality.
The forest is unstable. The paths you walked last time may be gone the next — and you may find your own footprints leading somewhere you never went.
A Reactive World — The forest is alive. Almost everything around you responds to what you do — and to what you come to understand.
No Way Out — You are free to wander the eerie woods. Any attempt to leave them is futile.
You are not here for the first time. Will you find her?
