Servant of the Lake is set to launch on August 13 for PC, iOS, and Android, with a demo available on Steam.
Rusty Lake's Servant of the Lake is a prequel to Rusty Lake: Roots. Players take the role of a servant in the Vanderboom mansion, solving puzzles to complete chores and assist the family's alchemical experiments. The game was shown at BitSummit PUNCH 2026 with a playable demo, where co-founder Robin Ras said it will take 4 to 6 hours to complete and includes new puzzle mechanics and a notebook feature.
Originally planned for a spring 2026 release, the game shifted to an August 13 launch. The delay followed the studio's migration from Adobe Animate to Unity. The game will be available on PC via Steam and itch.io, iOS, and Android. A demo is already available on Steam.
