I purchased and played every Rusty Lake game there is, and this one was entertaining and creative. The puzzles, albeit challenging, are much easier than previous games. Graphics are the usual minimalist style, and audio is okay but not innovative. Story is vague and not complex. Game lacks the anticipated creepiness Rusty Lake is famous for and is their real differentiator in a very competitive gaming market. Please go back to your old lovable creepy style which why we buy your games.

Can never get enough of Rusty Lake! The game is in a brand new setting, but also expands on the previous games and the lore. Although this game lacks the intriguing rusty lake location, more elaborate puzzles, and scares, as compared to its predecessors, this is compensated by a more layered, psychological mystery, with new mechanics that, albeit more linear, offer a fresh spin on the escape genre, favoring local puzzles instead of item gathering/usage.

The White Door is unfortunately a poor addition to the Rusty Lake pantheon of games. The unique backstory and cannon of the RL world is just not enough to make up for the loss of the engaging mechanics of the other games. The actions, especially during the dream sequences, felt more like busy work (keeping the player occupied) rather than truly advancing the story. The whole thing just felt undercooked and rushed to market. I hope their next offering captures the magic of the other games again.
