✦ AI summary

Rusty Lake Hotel is a darkly comedic puzzle game with a unique premise where players serve as a hotel butler harvesting "ingredients" from guests, featuring inventive puzzle design and strong atmospheric storytelling that sets the tone for the series. Players praise the refined puzzle mechanics, unsettling-yet-engaging horror aesthetic, and creative integration of the game's morbid theme, though some find the disturbing content genuinely distressing rather than entertainingly weird.

Spolier alert: This game is about murdering your own guests and it makes me feel bad about it. I love puzzle games and this game is unsettling for me.

[h1] Refined, and Solid [/h1] another solid entry in the rusty lake series, although i think technically this is the first one if you don't count cube escape. i think that (so far) this games theming and story in the series is the strongest i've played so far. the horror is flipped to make you the main vector, and the puzzle solving ties into the unique methods of "getting meat". Past that, knowing that the game came out years ago when they were still producing flash games, this is a step up versus them, and set the standard for how they would continue to produce escape games to this day. i do have a minor complain that the ending prevents you from continuing that save for completion, though it's not a big deal since the length of the game isn't long anyways.

After playing all the cube escapes, this was no longer "surprisingly" weird. It was appropiately weird. And bloody. And, to be honest, very disgusting at times. But in a funny, intriguing way? In the first longer installment of the Rusty Lake series, you are, apparantly, a butler starting at Rusty Lake Hotel. You are to serve a bunch of antropomorphic animal people (and work alongside them on the staff). Every day, the guests mingle and enjoy the view of the lake and the many fishing spots, and at night, you collect ingredients for next day's dinner. To do that, you solve puzzles in different locations inside the hotel (most of which require taking your brain out of your head and putting it in upside down). Story Spoiler under the cut: [spoiler]That would all be fairly simple and un-disgusting if the main ingredient of any meal wasn't fresh meat - in a hotel full of literal animals. But alas, what can you do? You're only there to guarantee the [i]livin [/i] guest's happiness.[/spoiler] So all in all, to apply succesfully to this important service job, you'll need: - a love for the weird and abstract - to be willing to jump into a rabbit hole of games to get the satisfaction o…

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
