||yes! and i rearrange the cups in order. My friend told me im supposed to get a coin in the one-line cup. But i dont get any...||
i guess i'll restart the game. see if it's just my pc lagging lol
oh someone else finally found it 
I just realized we're about halfway to the required number to be "Overwhelmingly Positive" (500)! If you haven't left a review yet and you'd like to, here's the link to the demo page again 😄 :https://store.steampowered.com/app/3996940/Servant_of_the_Lake_Demo/
Welcome to the Servant of the Lake demo, a short preview of what’s to be expected of you as a servant to the infamous Vanderboom family! Visitors are arriving soon, and you are meant to start your housekeeping duties immediately!
There's a long weekend ahead, but for now, solve the puzzles needed to fulfil your first assignments, which incl…
I will, I just need to play it first.
Also
I hope you enjoy it!
Thanks, I deffnitly will!
Gald to be the part of the 100k people that wishlisted ^_^
day 2 of losing my sanity ||trying to find the secret in the demo||
||(i have no idea if it has to do with the trailer but i'm on my 498th rewatch)||
NOW JUST YOU WAIT A GOSH DARN SECOND
||i mean i'm guessing that could be a hint but i'm not sure how to use it in game||
Feel free to share what you think you found, as long as it's spoiler tagged
||there's a little p.s. from RL in the demo trailer comments, and i'm thinking that might be it||
that's what i was talking about
I shan't comment about anything XD Just meant that y'all can talk about the things you see and think 😄
yeah, besides determined on getting to the bottom of this
at the cost of my sanity
because i
am mr. owl
@here Are you sure you've found everything on your first day?

Welcome to the Servant of the Lake demo, a short preview of what’s to be expected of you as a servant to the infamous Vanderboom family! Visitors are arriving soon, and you are meant to start your housekeeping duties immediately!
There's a long weekend ahead, but for now, solve the puzzles needed to fulfil your first assignments, which incl…
Is it just me or did this one feel really easy
It's just the first 15ish minutes 😄
You have to introduce a game gently
yeah, the first few will always be easy
tho admittedly the exercise puzzled stumped me for a moment
I don’t remember it being this straight forward but it’s been a while
now we wait
i accidentally clicked on the hut cracker, questioned its existance, and didnt realize it was for the exercize thing until i had to exercise good ol al
To me too, but I bet the full game will leave me scrambling for a walkthrough lol
||on the bright side, it seems i was right about the hint... just one problem... I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT MEANS YET||
i'm gonna ask the worm
I remember thinking UB was mostly on the easier side, but then the postgame secret hunt hit 😄
If you've already played the game I definitely implore you read to my message carefully:)
I love the secret hunts
Yess the post game was awesome
this is only demo and we got polish language
The main path tends to be fun in RL games, but for me it's the random secrets you have to dig for that are really memorable
япи.
жду весну.
oh yeah i remember thinking "bro this one is easy, i've got this in the bag" when first opening UB. cut to 30 minutes later and i'm staring at my screen in bewilderment. i'm manifesting sotl will be the same.
It's great, isn't it?
And obviously, this is just a demo for sotl
But I do recommend looking at Damy's ping message again
i just start play this game and ofcorse i dont know what to do next lol
If you have questions, feel free to ask for help in the help channel #1425769608996192336 !
You wouldn't be the first to need a small nudge in the right direction
ye but + its that i play every game of rusty lake and some even spedrun
Fair enough!
I wanted to sign myself as Harvey, but it only let me write "Ha", so I went to turn the language to English to share here and it deleted the H. Therefore, Aldous, welcome your new servant: a.
||found the easter egg!! ❤️ wonderful demo||
and first 23 minut its werry nice for me
Hmmmmmm
But- oh I think I know
I'm, funnily enough, having breakfast right now
Mmmmm, egg
||Just did this, it worked!||
shh, the peasant's shan't know yet...
Glad to see you all haven't lost all of your detective skills yet 
Nono, that's what I had. Steam-boiled egg, prepped yesterday
bone appetite
Quick reminder to spoiler tag your demo spoilers 😄
|| before and after any text you want to spoiler tag, or click on the eye icon on an image
There's also a helpful guide in #1425769608996192336
You guys can talk about the demo with each other, including any neat secrets you find, but lets all make sure we don't accidentally ruin the fun for someone!
Wait does ||Aldous' bedroom|| actually uses the wallpaper but very transparent?
I didn't as I don't need to :p
Not demo spoilers, just that I had egg for breakfast
The egg is allowed to stay XD
KINDA LIKE HOW ||you serve Aldous breakfast in the demo. I gave him bloody porridge twice haha||
Keep in mind that we also discourage genAI in things like Laketober,
you've got nothing to worry about.
corrupted or not, it should have soul
The demo was very fun, i'm excited for the full game so I can add it to my collection. I think i own every RL game now
fake fans finna say this and then proceed to not own kingdom of the lake 🙏
Glad to hear that you enjoyed the demo! If you haven't yet it would be thankful if you leave the review on Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/3996940/Servant_of_the_Lake_Demo/)?) Or leave the feedback in #🐎|sotl-feedback

Thank you for playing the demo! If you enjoyed the demo, would you mind leaving a review on Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/3996940/Servant_of_the_Lake_Demo/) or leaving a feedback in #🐎|sotl-feedback ? It's really helpful 
Less than 10! I look forward to seeing your full game world record XD
i’m adding professional speed runner to my cv
Keep an eye on speedrun.com 😉
||Man, this thing really is an 8 or 80 huh||
||Submitteded the form||
i was wondering like
if i were to try and make a speedrun to submit
when would i have to start the timer
like when i get out of the carriage or when i press start
It's usually when you press Start
|| finally found the easter egg, phew ||

Sorry sir, you are no Deva
||same!!||
My handwriting
Fr there’s always one puzzle in the middle that humbles me
For me it was ||the porridge bug||
btw these are genAI bots trying to detect genAI. It's like asking chatGPT if it wrote something. They can still hallucinate
||i did it first try and then couldnt do it the next two times i tried for the life of me 😭||
I'm still so confused about the easter egg. I felt like I looked everywhere for it 😭. Or maybe I saw it and didn't realize it was an easter egg idk
Think outside the box;)
I love how you can ||hold the razor to shave Aldous in one go instead of clicking|| 
It will be a premium title
learned something new today
||very small but i thought it was a cool detail that there was code for cutting both ears depending on which side you finished shaving||
just for my sanity's sake I have to ask ||does the easter egg have to do with William blinking in Morse code?||
Everything you need you can find in my message
hmm.. okay 
I finally found it!!! 😅
Welcome in that case! 
Indeed! 
Rare aesthetic: random guy offers you a frog
does it have to be porridge? /ref
he needs his mr crow glow up asap i cant take him serious in those pajamas
||and those dawgs need to be kept away, sleep with some socks on aldous!!|| not really a spoiler but it is general gameplay related
the furry allegations ain't slowing down the way i think he looks better as a bird man
I think it's mostly the suit that makes him look good
Lol
@muted nest ^
aldous dripped out at the club
does aldous need a chiropractor? just a thought
It's funny seeing almost everyone think ||"Something's missing" was Aldous's earlobe (I thought that too, lol||
You can’t handle Victorian old men in pajamas dresses?
(I have seen the Netflix Scrooge movie 5 times so legally I have to say I do)
but let's not get off topic
i saw this comment and now i wonder... but what if mr crow... in pyjamas?! legasp
i can't get it out of my head now, mr crow with his majestic crow face and then some pyjamas with fluffy slippers
i wonder who the guests are gonna be...
i may have missed it bur sotl doesnt have a release date / estimated time of release yet right ?
It's in spring of 2026 iirc
We know one of them is ||Alexandra||
Margaret prob dead atp
you never know. maybe she lives
margaret is eternal
Finally sat down to play the demo... and I'm immediately stuck 
What part
Already solved 👍
||What do you mean by second Easter egg? Is there a first one in the game?||
||yes by first Easter egg I mean hint of code hidden in trailer||
I finished the demo, it was good but I think it was too short.
I'll write a review later, I dont have time for that now.
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts 😄 I'll link the demo store page here again for ease of access: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3996940/Servant_of_the_Lake_Demo/

"Top 500 Wishlisted Games on Steam!" You know Silksong used to be on that list? SotL is like Silksong, tell your friends :p
So true, so real
hollow lake
hornet vanderboom
Am I able to ask for assistance? How am I supposed to be able to determine ||what exercise Aldous needs?|| Is it ||something to do with his face?|| I'm at a loss
There's something in the ||room that also seems to do movements similar to Aldous' || :)
Definitely click on everything !
Got it! Thanks
abundalakaka guys
Healed.
||I lit the candle infront of Aldous' room, does that do anything?||
||So far it seems to do nothing||
Im so excited finnaly got off school
Alr finished it
So far i like the game
its a prequel and has so many references and i like the big mansion type of map
Im excited for the full game
You can leave a review too in you haven't already :)
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3996940/Servant_of_the_Lake_Demo/ (Has to be in the demo page)
I havent
Thanks for the reminder!
i really struggled at the part where you have to kill everyone in the house
The grinding is intentional 
the part where you have to stab aldous specifically tends to lag for me
Did i miss something😭?
if you do it while hes not got his slippers on i find it doesnt lag as much
i think it saves 0.4 seconds though!
If you quick-save it saves 2 seconds tho
if ur speedrunning its helpful
they should make the guest's entrance animated instead of having the eilander family just pop out of the carriage in one frame
yeah i thought that was weird how they only animated elizabeth falling on her face but nobody else
bob <3
I'm so confused on where to start for the code. I've watched the trailer so many times. Can I get some kind of hint on what I'm missing?
||try to think outside of the box...||
|| should I see numbers, or am I counting? ||
||perhaps the video itself isn't where you're supposed to look||
|| I get the ⏰️ 🖼 🧹, but where do I go from there? ||
||try to check those out in game then||
for a start
hii, can I play it on mobile?
not the demo, but the full game will be available on mobile
okay thanks!!
helooo

Sim, temos o #🌐|canal-português :)

Does anyone know which character we're playing as in this game ? Like in roots it was William, UB as Harvey so here ?
I think it’ll be harvey again, but before he became a bird guy- but it could be a totally new person idk
I feel like Mr.Bat
Ohhh that’d be cool
imagine the camera turns round and its just you irl
maybe the servant of the lake was the friends we made along the way 💙
@gray vigil
Maybe the servant of the lake were the shrimps we served throughout rusty lake games
maybe the vanderbooms were the lakes we rusted along the way
@here Our maid misplaced your contract during her... tidying. 
Could you kindly re-sign your contract to the Vanderbooms?

I am SO sorry! I got a bit distracted and then just couldn't stop myself from taking the feather with me and I forgot I did that, so I had to sign it with my finger... Appologies for the spillage, I hope it is not too much of a problem!
So many great entries!
Really love how creative community went w this task :D
I had no feather and had to use alternative methods.
The ink tastes good, I’m ready to serve!
Dignity 😭🤣
hi
Huh, why are people posting their screenshots of them signatures on the contract?
Because:)
Ah, I see
and with it, my soul
Seems like something happened during the signing that prevented me from finishing. Did I fall asleep? Did I die? Who knows?

Is it going to be available on mobile? I’ve got every other game on my phone and don’t want just one on steam
@wheat wraith the demo is currently only avaiable on Steam and Itch.io, but the full game will be released on all platforms as usual
Maybe the demo will also come to mobile, but nothing about it has officially been announced yet, so keep an eye in #📯|rl-announcements ;)
Hey, does anyone know what will be the prive of the game more or less?
Just a guess but I think it would be at around same price with other premium Rusty Lake games
That’s something we’re about to discover yet :D😅
.
@hushed echo anything we can help with?:)
Re the ||video that reveals a secret||… ||which one is it? I tried the exercise combination and it did nothing. The cat there’s only one way to pet it||
The demo is short enough that I don’t mind replaying it

very well, except a mild cold 👍 you? 😄
also, I saw your status and I do have to agree, fanfics are quite awesome
will sotl come out on ios eventually?
The full game will be released at the same time for all the usual platforms, including for iOS. But the demo is currently Pc only

@here Servants, your contracts have been reviewed… 
Congratulations to geneon101! Your signature crossed from the Vanderdoom estate into reality. 🩸
To all servants who signed, your devotion will not be forgotten. 👁️
If you’ve yet to sign, your Servant of the Lake contract awaits below. 👇
Yes master
been an honor, mr. damy
Your signatures were all wonderful 😄 NOW GET BACK TO WORK
There were so many applicants! 😄
I can't believe we got to trick so many people into signing their eternal servitude to the Vanderbooms
I can't work until 2026
Worth it
YES MS. SAMMY SI- MAAM
*slips on some blood and adds my own to the puddle
Places an 1800s version of a wet floor sign
that's just a guy who yells at you to be careful
but most of the time he startled people and they fell anyway so they eventually switched to signs
Wet floor signs aren't old enough for that XD
But we shall make it so

That's the joke
Bringing a modern wet floor sign to the 1800s
which is quite fitting for the vanderboom house
the guy probably lives in the walls
DALE!!?!??!
guess not
i thought he'd gotten out of the elevator...
New theory: Dale is the servant
How many servants Vanderboom family killed/harmed?
It’s at least 30 potential dead bodies
OH NO I misjudged/misunderstood when the contest eneded, I was working on something I thought was really cool lmao
ah well I'll post it anyway if thats ok
(used an IRL crow feather, carved the tip, practiced with real red ink on scrap paper then signed IRL!)
definitely didn't use real blood
NooooO no no no
no of course not....
We need to know her canonical name
sarah
We have Sarah White tho
sarah black
Let’s get some balance, so we are not going against any of the suggestions so far. Sarah Grey.
Just searched up for common names from the period and half of the Rusty Lake cast names appeared
Hola
no that's me
w
tbh I'm so happy for this rusty lake game
we'll now learn more about Aldous. and maybe his brother? I didn't see him in the game (as an interactive character I mean)
He's in the trailers, so thats for sure
what if william was actually aldous' brother
No way
Good evening
Hiya! Welcome to Rusty Lake:)
Thanks 🙂
Hello
This app is so complex to use. Help
Uh please I want help
I wanna play the lite version
Who's interested?
Bro same here idk how to play wt my friend
i think SotL is a single-player game and you can't play it with an another person
Correct! They're wondering about The Past Within specifically though
Is it?
So i can’t play with my friend
It depends on what game you're looking to play
I assume you're playing The Past Within, which yes is a multiplayer game
Yes
How to play it with my hb?
either irl, or on a call
just make sure they also have the game
also this should be in #🦋|the-past-within isn't it
Ohh so we don’t log in together
also make sure you choose different times and the same bugs when you are playing
the game tells you this, but still
After postponing my playthru, finally got my hands on the demo and ah, how I missed these games
Glad to hear it!:)
i love rusty lake ñañitos
Hey the within past isnt countiuning I touch and it doesn't work
<@&357145081872121866> can you help
@cursive jackal can you send some screenshots? Also please don't use that role ping.
iOS user is waiting for too long
Hey Kristen! I do apologise for the wait. For now the Demo will only be on PC. But the game will release simultaneously on all platforms at the same time next year!
Hello i'm looking for someone to play with me as a duo in The Past Within. Any one?
i'm down!
This channel is about the upcoming single player title called Servant of the Lake!
If you’re looking for players to share the experience of The Past Within and play together, please, head to #🔍|tpw-looking-for-player (if you have the full version), #🔎|find-lite-partner (if you’re running lite/demo version)
Ok
OK I was telling the story about the paradox but some link camed
OK now it stoped
Here is the Paradox story
Cube Escape: Paradox is the tenth game in the Cube Escape series. It was developed alongside a short film of the same name, and was released on September 20th, 2018. Despite being a Cube Escape game, and not one of the separate Rusty Lake titles, this game is available on paid services and contains a second chapter of DLC, which must be purchased. The first chapter does not.
In this game you play as Dale Vandermeer, who is trapped in an ominous room without any recollection of his past. Dale must solve increasingly challenging puzzles to escape the room and recover his memories.
Anybody know when the servant of the lake soundtrack will be released on apple music or youtube or something?
I think it will be released after full version is released.
When will Sotl come out on iOS
Currently servant of the lake demo version is available on only Steam, but it will be available on mobile too when the full version is released (spring 2026)
Hiya! Welcome to Rusty Lake, enjoy your stay:)
Of course! Anything I can help with?
Hey. Are you new here like me?
Yes me
Hi everyone, does anyone play The Past Within? I just downloaded it but have noone to play with :((
First time poster, long time follower. Are we still looking at q1 2026 for the new game?
Since they said "Spring 2026", I'm guessing it'll be at q2 2026 or right at the end of q1
Who knows? 
Why do they make me wait and suffer like this!!!! I can’t wait
Me neither! But more time means a better game! Can't rush things 🫶
This doesn't seem relevant, eh?
I got it, thank you for the ping either way! 
Yeah, I forgot to look if it was deleted, mb XD

Welcome to the Servant of the Lake demo, a short preview of what’s to be expected of you as a servant to the infamous Vanderboom family! Visitors are arriving soon, and you are meant to start your housekeeping duties immediately!
There's a long weekend ahead, but for now, solve the puzzles needed to fulfil your first assignments, which incl…
Hi! Im new and i don t know much english. Can someone explane me how the game works
Which game is it?
The full version of the past within
The Past Within is an offline co-op game, so you only need two players and a form of communication. You can either talk in real life if you know someone, talk by messages or call. It's your choice
You can find a partner in #🔍|tpw-looking-for-player
Once you have someone to play with, both start the game and select different times (One in the Past, another in the Future) and both select the SAME insect. That's it 👍
What s an insect
🐝 or 🦋
You must choose the same one as your partner
Ooh. I taught it was somethink else not a real insect. Thank you
Just finished the demo
Rl cool
It's kinda goofy in a way
And the puzzles were too easy that even my dumdum brain could solve them
But regardless
Rl cool
Maybe your dumdum brain is actually a smarsmart brain 
Thank you for the feedback though! 
If you're willing, we'd appreciate it if you left a review on the demo page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3996940/Servant_of_the_Lake_Demo/

Alrighty
I wanted it to come out this Monday cause it's my birthday then. but I know it won't 😔
I'll just wish for the game to be addictive like the rest of rusty lake 
eitherway, I'll get the game someday, and it'll probably be as addictive as all the other games, so it's a win-win
OO WAIT WILL WE SEE WILL?
wait that would be a spoiler if someone of the team answered that. . .
ignore the question ☺️
William? Well, he's in both trailers and also the teaser from last year 
O
OOO
YEEEEEEAAAA BOOOYYYYY
Alexandra too ;)
There are 3 portraits in the demo, one belongs to her
These pictures are more suited in #🩸|general-chat Feel free to repost there

Yup

Hi or hello
Hi
Hello
heey
I guess some of them are redirected to here after joining the server 🙂
I don't think it's related servant of the lake. Feel free to use #🛖|the-cabin for non-Rusty Lake related topics.
Im sorry, I wanted to ask, When The Servant Of The Lake will be out for IOS?
The full version will be released at the same time for all the usual platforms, including iOS. Currently, the demo is only avaiable on Steam and Itch.io, but it may be avaiable later for mobile. If so, the team will announce it in the #📯|rl-announcements channel 
thanks!
The demo is great. Can't wait for the full game.
Great to hear! Make sure to leave a review / comment, it helps a lot!
I'm so ready

Hello, how's your day so far? May I ask?

Yo guys what about steal a brain rot
I can’t wait anymore!!!! Is there an official release date?
We are expecting it to be released in Spring 2026!
Just replay the games until then:)
Glad to see you're excited 😄 Please do keep off topic talk in #🛖|the-cabin though, so people can keep finding Servant of the Lake specific stuff in this channel
Oooh i didnt think thats what this channel was, very sorry will delete
It's alright, now you know! We've got a server map in #📚|resources +a summary of what the channel is for at the top of the channels. Enjoy your stay at the Lake!
GUYS, WHAT DO THE NUMBERS MEAN IN THE NEW VEDIO?
If you'd like to talk about the Christmas video, feel free to do so in #🩸|general-chat 😄

Have you checked all objects? The photo frames, all tanks on the walls and also the stove?

Thank you for the ping!
Thank you for the ping! :>
For your attention : Tried to download sotl demo onto my iphone last night. Steam did not work so tried Rusty Lake Itch.io, clicking download needed me to authorise £0.00 as I expected but when download not found got email I had subscribed to Juice Tech site (free for 24 hours then £29.90 / month off my card). Have raised it with my credit company but wanted to warn others - may have been down to my error but wanted to warn others
hey RJ! Servant of the Lake isn't available on mobile, currently, it's only on PC (through Itch and Steam). I'm sorry to hear you suddenly got subscribed to something but I don't think that's with us.
@echo sun ?
Thanks. I’m new to all this. Good to know others won’t be affected.
No spoilers please, but where does Servant of the Lake fall on the offical timeline
This one
This is the release order, so most recent games always go in the bottom/last place ;)
Thanks
While I've got you
where does untold go?
Well, it may have more campaigns in the future
Currently, there's only one (The Lab), so that one would be after Underground Blossom
Okay, thank you so much
I signed up for it
so I could have it
I keep thinking I'm missing something
And every turn I go, there's another thing xD
It's a great series though
Am i missing anything though?
Just wanna make sure lol
Atleast from the pic Im not seeing Paradox (game)
Indeed I missed that one
I thought it was part of the original cube escape
How does the paradox film go into the game?
Sorta of a minor spoiler ||Almost all achievements are hidden through the film||
(We could move to #🩸|general-chat )
After paradise, before roots timeline wise

Soooo like I’m guessing we’re getting more lore on WHY the benefactor of the Vernderbooms: James Vanderboom got the deed of the house?
Because that would clear a lot of things up including WHY James decided to create the elixir and how he knew HOW to make it
:0
@grim fossil thanks for letting us know.
Without spoilers, when does servant of the lake occur
Before Roots
Yes
Yup

You can put rusty lake tag on edit profile -> server tag setting.
What would happen if you became your user name?
I don't think it's related to servant of the lake. You can ask it in #🛖|the-cabin
Do we know which month sotl will be released?
We don't have exact date of release yet but it will be released in spring 2026
Alrrr
SotL tomorrow begins ~next month
<@&358613639554400258>
why do these things spawn so often.... ough
also in sotl content and suggestions
They are also hyped for SotL
aren't we all...

as in like download it or are you stuck on a puzzle
The demo is currently only available for Pc on Steam and Itch.io

About The Mr. Rabbit Magic Show, I want to figure out one thing: There's no Supporter Pack on Android? Like google?
@autumn glen
The supporter pack is only available on steam

Only a few months away.. or a month, who knows
Sotl yesterday
Hello

Thank you!
It doesn't look like we can put a password here (unless it's on top of the box) so I don't think the symbols are for a math calc but rather 5 symbols, possibly 5 items, which we have to put in each one of the five arch-shaped holes below to open the box 
Unless the "password" is supposed to be put in the five archs
It reminds me of the telescope puzzle in Emma's The Search level
So what is this rusty lake lore cuz I'll I see is a detective that investigated the death of a girl but when he got to the lake his memories were scrambled can someone explain it to me
it's really complicated, in fact, im watching a 4 part series of someone explaining the lore of rusty lake right now
Can u summarize it when u done
The story is told out of order and a lot is left up to interpretation but he’s the basics:
!!SPOILERS!!
||Laura (the girl) dies, Dale Vandermeer (the detective) investigates to try and figure out if it’s murder or if she did it herself. It’s very unclear even thought we play through it from several perspectives.
Laura before her death goes to Rusty Lake as it’s implied she has some mental health problems. It’s assumed something happened there that was the tipping point towards her death.
Dale ends up at the bottom of Rusty Lake (for reasons) and he and Laura have a sort of spirit meeting where they must decide which of them lives and dies. It’s usually assumed by the community that Dale is the one to live in the end.
This is pretty much the end of the timeline. So moving backwards now.
Before Laura’s death her family (Vanderbooms) has possibly the strangest upbringing imaginable and Laura has an incredibly esoteric birth stemming from the fact that her birth is a plot by her great (I think there’s another great I’m bad at math) grandfather (William) to be reborn and escape Samsara (the cycle of rebirth) after he and his brother (Who becomes Mr Crow) made an elixir that killed William but gave Mr Crow eternal life in return.
Part of Mr Owl’s plot is that he built a Hotel in the center of Rusty Lake to bring in guests to harvest their memories and this is the origin of Laura’s Parrot, Harvey.
Before even this, at the center of the lake was a place called Paradise. Home to the Eilanders family (very important distinction). They were also incredibly strange and this was a precursor life to Mr Owl’s where I think he became aware of the cycle of rebirth.
So far that’s the start. There’s a lot in the middle I skipped like TPW and TWD but that’s the main cliff notes.||
well, it's a deep dive but hey, erin sent smth down below
Flawed Peacock?
I love his videos! I’m actually watching those too!
oh nicee
But yeah his videos are more Theorizing and the story itself is very very long.
Since the channel is for Servant of the Lake, the conversation could be moved to #🩸|general-chat
Ah sorry!
oops
ahhmm
Gotta say rusty lake has gotta be the most random unpredictable confusing ominous gam series I've ever played and I love it. How do u get a cube from a dudes brain and how do u get items from grandma's mouth? Things I never would guessed. Also what is sotl
SotL stands for Servant of the Lake, the next Rusty Lake game, so this channel is for this specific new game
We usually use #🩸|general-chat for the rest
Oh
know someone when the date of Servant of the Lake ?
We don't know the exact date yet. we only know it'll be released this Spring 
I can't wait 🥹, i really like the demo
Me neither! 
sotl in proximity

March, April, May and June
Yeah it has a short film!
Where?m
It stands for Servant of the Lake!
Where is the filmmm
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZXFaaQJb0c On Youtube!
When the infamous detective Dale Vandermeer wakes up in an ominous room without any recollection of his past, he soon finds himself part of a bizarre game orchestrated by an old foe as he must solve increasingly challenging puzzles to escape the room and recover his memories.
Feel free to leave a rating or review at:
IMDB: https://www.imdb.com...
This cube series is so much better than the fnaf lore
Also is Harvey the parrot we see in the cage
Thats so cool
There's this one too

Thank you for the ping!
No problem! 
i want to buy this game, please, release it as soon as possible 🙏🙏🙏
I too am excited, but I know you all are hard at work to give us a game that exceeds all expectations. I will keep patiently waiting
Does anyone know where I can download Mr. Rabbit's Magic Show? I have an Android phone
You can download on google playstore
Is it confirmed that Alexandra Vanderboom is the third sibling of the two brothers? Or could she be the wife of one of them
During the holiday special, ||all three were called siblings, so she is a sister, yes||
Mmm, porridge
Hello
hi
<@&358613639554400258>
i was thinking that was quick lmao

when are they gonna give us an actual date for release?
It can't be confirmed in the moment
hellooo
I wanted to ask for help because I’m stuck on the flags puzzle.(case escape.birthday) The problem is that the flags don’t react at all when I tap on them. I’ve tried many times, but nothing happens, so I can’t move forward.
could you please help me fix this or tell me what I can do? I’d really like to continue the game.
I’ve already restarted the game and reinstalled it, but the problem is still there.
Did you also try to drag the flag?
If it still doesn't work, maybe you can send some screenshot or video record in #1425769608996192336 ?
Grandpa Eilander
Jane is in the 2nd campaign
i think we can start saying SOTL tomorrow now

maybe on the next week?)
rl devs can you release sotl after my next paycheck ive just had to get a new passport /silly
itll be ready when its ready yall
cant rush perfection
Haha, no need to push yourself too hard. As the saying goes, “More haste, less speed.” We truly hope the final version will be stable and fun to play.

is there a confirmed release date for SOTL?
as soon as it releases im working on the wiki page
We don't know the exact release date yet but it will be released in spring this year
I guess you could say I should… Remember the season!
It's amusing that I still haven't played the sotl demo yet. I want to keep it a secret and start enjoying the complete version with full pleasure.
i will say that the demo doesn’t really release any new lore
but that’s totally very smart of u and i wouldvedone that but im impatient
I don't think it's related to servant of the lake. Feel free to use #🛖|the-cabin for non rusty lake related stuff
i noticed some actions left in the demo for the full game, like how you can light the candles in the attic
the way aldous says "feed me" is so disturbing
hey
Hloo
can anyone help me with this game. Im new
Sure, what's up?
I wanna play a demo game. Anyone up?
If you mean the past within, you can find a player in #🔎|find-lite-partner
thank you lilac

Hi
Hi, welcome to the lake 
Will Servant of the Lake be out by the time of the Spring Sale ?
Maybe
Hello! Welcome to the Lake 
Hey
Will servant of the lake be available on switch?
How to make in game partner, like I want my brother to be that but how
Hi @vivid hornet
Hi @hollow widget
If you’re talking about The Past Within you don’t need an invite. The game is designed so nothing is randomly generated per play though so you only need Communication, One person in the past and one in the future.
It confused me at first as well.
And if you are looking for help or someone to play with #🦋|the-past-within or #🔍|tpw-looking-for-player is a good place to look.
(Mods if this is pushing it on mini-modding please let me know)
Will SOTL be the end of the vanderboom story line? We still have Dales story line but the story with the Vanderboom family and roots doesn’t seem to have much wiggle room.
is there gonna be a new game and will it be random on the timeline or is sotl another game? or is sotl the new game
Servant of the lake is the new game
Maybe there are another new games on developers' list but we don't know yet except servant of the lake
what even is servant of the lake
servant of the lake is sotl
It will contain the story of Vanderbooms house but before roots
Is sotl at uhh... Mobile yet? (I forgot to check the announcements)
Unfortunately, the demo is only available on PC for now
Oh i didn't know that
i was starting to panic
