    Love it to the bone

    I adore this series game so so much, I admire their massive story, it crosses the past, the present, the future and the death, the living, and the human, the animals. And their film certainly not let me down at all. I have a small notebook just to solve all the puzzle in the game and it looks mysterious for those who dont know about this game

    Hopeful for More

    What a brilliant little film. Perfectly captures the disorientation and sense of unease the Cube Escape and Rusty Lake games carry with them. I dearly hope this is just the beginning of more to come.

    Amazing

    A true masterpiece by our beloved Rusty Lake and the LAB. Paradox - A Rusty Lake Film can be enjoyed by everyone, those who have been, and continue to be, dedicated Rusty Lake fans, those who have played through a few games here and there, and those who have never heard of it. It is simply stunning, very beautiful.

    A Rusty Lake fan's dream come true!

    Not only did this short movie bring to life our beloved characters from the Rusty Lake game universe i.e. Dalw Vandermeer, Laura Vanderboom and Mr. Crow, it materialized Rusty lake into reality in the most elegant and eerie way I didn't know was possible. The music, cinematography, scene locations, props and actors were all of such high quality/talent that watching the movie made me feel as if I had finally experienced the game in real life. This was such a well thought out script and the effort and love put into it was very apparent. Would love to see more Rusty Lake movies in the future!
