About This Game

Do you think you can trust what you see? 

You wake up in a forest filled with things you don't understand, with a notebook in your hands. It's the only tool you have. The only other thing you can rely on is your own perception: your eyes, your ears, and your instincts. Observe your surroundings with great attention. But be careful — the lake may be observing you too. 



Red Lake is a psychological horror game with surreal elements, set in a remote winter forest. The world around you feels somewhere between a dream and a nightmare.

You are not only investigating your surroundings, but the world itself. With no HUD or traditional UI, you have to rely on environmental cues — sound, movement, light, and what you can see with your own eyes.

Dive deeper into the Red Lake to uncover what exactly you are researching — and what you are really looking for.



Your perception can be manipulated. It knows where you look. What you feel. What you expect to see.



Ignorance is bliss. Try to understand what is happening — and wish you never did.

Strong symbolism and traces of something long forgotten may leave a mark on your memory and subconscious. Finding the truth may be emotionally devastating.
