Cube Escape and Rusty Lake are a series of surrealistic escape room or point and click puzzle video games developed by Dutch indie game developers Rusty Lake. Cube Escape games largely focus on the life and death of Laura Vanderboom, who serves as the protagonist for the first two entries, Seasons and The Lake. Other games in the series feature different protagonists, such as Vincent Van Gogh, a parrot named Harvey, and a detective, Dale Vandermeer, who is investigating Laura's death.
