The story of Servant of the Lake takes place decades before Rusty Lake: Roots, during the era of Aldous and William Vanderboom. Players assume the role of a new servant at the manor, experiencing three days of life: doing laundry, organizing family portraits, receiving guests, completing various strange tasks, and cleaning up the aftermath of alchemical experiments. Amidst these daily chores, the secrets of the family and the manor itself will gradually be revealed.
Servant of the Lake is now available on PC, iOS, and Android platforms.
