Despite their strange, surreal nature, Rusty Lake games regularly draw thousands of players and enviable user reviews on Steam.<\/p>\n<p>The new game, The Mr. Rabbit Magic Show, is a bit more straightforward than most of the other games in the series, at least on the surface, but it still goes to some unexpected places, which I will not spoil here. The majority of the puzzles are quite simple, but there are a few that tested me: A music puzzle near the end of the magic show had me absolutely baffled until, after about 15 minutes of trying (and failing) to brute-force it, I realized what I was looking at, and the pieces fell into place.<\/p>\n<p>The Mr. Rabbit Magic Show is free, although if you&#8217;re a big fan you can pick up the &#8220;<a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/3701380\/Mr_Rabbit_Magic_Show__Supporter_Pack\/\" target=\"_blank\">supporter pack<\/a>&#8221; for $3. It&#8217;s got some wallpapers, in-game cosmetics, and &#8220;a heartfelt thank-you letter from the Rusty Lake team,&#8221; but nothing in the way of extra puzzles, secrets or achievements: &#8220;Getting this DLC is primarily a way to show your support for Rusty Lake,&#8221; the team said.<\/p>\n<p>The Intern, the 10th anniversary short film, is less creeptastically bleak than I expected, but it does make for a fun look behind the scenes at Rusty Lake\u2014especially after you&#8217;ve played The Mr. Rabbit Magic Show.<\/p>\n<div class=\"youtube-video\" data-nosnippet >\n<div class=\"video-aspect-box\"><iframe data-lazy-priority=\"low\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mFnqdfy-Bnc\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The other big news out of today&#8217;s anniversary celebration is <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/3636770\/Servant_of_the_Lake\/\" target=\"_blank\">Servant of the Lake<\/a>, a new game in the series that promises &#8220;a classic single-player Rusty Lake point-and-click adventure,&#8221; this one set in the infamous Vanderboom house decades before the events of Rusty Lake Roots.<\/p>\n<p>As the housekeeper of the Vanderboom estate, you&#8217;ll explore each room of the house while fulfilling your duties, which will range from &#8220;simple tasks such as straightening the portraits and doing the laundry to assisting in complex experiments and cleaning up the aftermath.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, that sounds like Rusty Lake, alright.
