The White Door for Negative User Reviews

Achievements Should Have Been Part of the GameI thought the game was brilliant, but I completed it in just a few hours. Then I found out there was an alternative ending, also a basement, which I had no idea how to access, things you could do by choosing “maybe” instead of “yes” or “no” that would put you on the road to the achievements. For someone like me that is not that game savvy, I finally gave up seeking how to get those achievements. I would suggest to the developers to rather than having achievements, to use those achievement storylines and incorporate them into the game itself! That would make this very short game longer, and make for a beefier game for people, like me, who don’t know how to access those achievements..Version: 2.3

MehIf I hadn’t already played and been obsessed with the other Rusty Lake games which I consider the best games ever created, I might have given this another star but... this is just not on the same level as the others. Story line is boring; there’s none of the same amazing weirdness as the other games. It’s also much simpler: I finished in about 2 hours quite easily, whereas the other games I could spend a cumulative total game play of days, and I could still go back and replay them, find them difficult, and discover new things. It’s also buggy-I’ve had to close out of the game a few times because it froze. I’ve never had that problem with any other Rusty Lake game. Please bring back the original style and soon (it’s disappointing to wait so long for a new game that doesn’t deliver). I love Rusty Lake, but I just don’t love this game..Version: 1.7

Good game but too shortI love all the Rusty Lake games and this was fun too. But it was too short for the $4 price..Version: 2.3

It’s a Nope from meI have all the Rusty Lake games to date, & have replayed them all numerous times. I love the challenges, the Rusty Lake quirkiness, and the care the developers put forward in each game. I appreciate that they tried something different in The White Door, but frankly, this game was repetitive, boring, and not challenging at all. The puzzles were simplistic. I know a lot of people gave TWD high ratings, but if those familiar with the RL world were truly honest about it, they would have to admit that this was a pretty insipid installment. If you remove the Rusty Lake banner from TWD and rate it objectively, even die-hard fans would have to say this game has little going for it. The developers’ effort is appreciated, but The White Door was a real disappointment for me..Version: 2.4

Lacking!It was ok. But not good value for money when compared to your free games. I expected at least the same amount of game play, if not more after paying, than your free games. I finished this in less than a day with no help! Your other games have kept me going for days!! I feel somewhat roped off. However; it is of good quality and offers the same quirky gameplay - just lacking in quantity really..Version: 2.4

YikesI am a die hard fan of Rusty Lake so I was excited for this one, but it was such a miss. I kept waiting for it to get interesting, but it was annoying to play and the puzzles were just too simple and kind of pointless. Not sure what happened here, but it definitely wasn’t worth the money..Version: 2.4

Aww, I’m disappointedI am not a gamer by any stretch. But I do like escape room games and I stumbled upon Rusty Lake a while ago and got sucked in completely. RL games were the first I ever paid for! I was obsessed! I even followed them on Twitter because I was fiending for a new game (if you knew me, this is quite insane of me to do). Anyway, I even marked my calendar for the release date of White Door and pre-ordered. To say the least...I’m pretty disappointed. It was too short and waayyyyyy too easy. All the puzzles were basically based off of typical online IQ tests. And also, the story didn’t make a ton of sense at all. Could have used a lot more development especially since it wasn’t graphics heavy. Maybe RL is really just one guy in a house and not a team of people? Anyway, I will still get the next one..Version: 1.9

Too high a bar to clearI’m compelled to write because this game series is among the best I’ve ever played. Engaging, atmospheric, and challenging. I pre ordered this and could not wait to be out to the test again. But these barely qualify as puzzles. A lot of guess and check. A lot of being literally told what to do. Very surprising considering the ingenuity and challenge all the rusty lake games leading up to this have brought. I understand they are trying something different, and I do like the new interface, and appreciate the narrative as always. I wish they keep trying new things too! But this was a miss. The structure of staying in the room could have been better but was far too repetitive to be interesting. I beat the game, and now can play as the nurse, but I don’t really want to continue if I have to interact with these same 10 spots I love you rusty lake! Keep doing fun things like this. The game is beautiful and interesting. It strayed too far from what makes you special though..Version: 1.7

A haunting yet unfinished storyThis was my first play through of any Rusty Lake game and after this decent experience I’ll still go back and play some others. I like the setup and the game play, I was instantly pulled in and wanted to know why this man was in this situation. The puzzles are easy at first and I like how they get gradually more challenging as you progress through the game. There were certain points where I just needed an online guide towards the end, it got extremely difficult. Some of the puzzles were tedious. I loved the dream sequences and the sleepy and detached narration. Fits the game well. I was very perplexed by the ending but I did a little digging around and came to understand that I am not getting the full story by not playing the other games. I didn’t know that and I wish I did. So even when you play the hidden level, Sarah, it still feels unfinished. That was a major letdown for me and took away from the experience. But the music and atmosphere and most of the gameplay were great. The music is chilling and probably the best part of the game..Version: 2.3

DisappointingHaving really enjoyed and played over and over again all of the previous Rusty Lake entries, with Roots being the crowning achievement both technically and story-wise, I can only say how disappointed I was with The White Door. In my view it is easily the poorest and least satisfying entry in the collection to date. Whilst I understand how much work, effort, planning and coding go into a game like this, I can only say I found it unsatisfying and lazy - repetitiveness aside, swiping eyes left, right, up and down because you are told to does not constitute gameplay in my view, good or otherwise. I hate to leave negative feedback, especially given your exemplary track record, so Rusty Lake team I really hope your next release goes back to your Roots and gameplay returns to that of the previous Cube Escape and Hotel, Roots, Paradise games. Thanks for reading and taking this review into consideration..Version: 2.3

AverageI wouldn’t pay for this one, the free ones are better than this.Version: 2.4

It was OKNot as good as the previous games. Very simple. Disappointed 😞 doesn’t worth the money.Version: 1.6

HmmmInteresting concept and love all of your other stuff. This though i found a bit repetitive, bordering on the tedious. Not a bad game in any way, but just not something i would want to play again i.e. buy the next in the series. I’m minded of a music band whom at their height, decided to do the stuff they always wanted to do but the record company would not buy-in to it. Now that it’s not about the money / sales anymore, ‘the art’ takes over for the musicians. Customers leave in their droves for the latest new thing, but the band are content that they have stayed ‘true’ to what they believe in and what they represent. Years later, after serving the 50th customer of the day in the local burger restaurant, the weathered lead singer stops to reflect on what could have been... My advice FWIW would be to get back to what you do best, as customers are a fickle bunch!.Version: 2.3

I wanted to love thisThis game had all the makings of a game I would typically love - quirky animation, nostalgic 70’s era, puzzles...I wanted to love this game. But I didn’t. Instead, I found myself increasingly frustrated and not enjoying the game at all. The storytelling is very very slow. The narration is almost deadpan and the actors for some reason have chosen to use American accents when they clearly aren’t American. The fact it takes place in the 70s makes zero difference to the story. Robert and his love are boring. We dont know why they have come together and we dont know why she has left. I didnt care at all about either of these characters. The puzzles themselves were often infuriating. Many of them are vague, follow no particular logic except trial and error and can be extremely specific (aligning two hands perfectly, coloring something in just right). This doesn’t challenge me as a puzzle game if I need to align random things just right. There’s no hints, no guidance. You’re forced to go online and it ruins the game because you end up always seeing way too much of the level just for one little puzzle. I wanted to enjoy this. I really did..Version: 2.4

Hmm - not sure about this oneHaving played all the Rusty Lake games I pre-ordered and was looking forward to this one. I finished it in just over an hour without any problems and found myself disappointed. Don’t think I’ll be pre-ordering again and hope the next one is more like the older Rusty Lake games. Sorry..Version: 1.6

Short game for priceThis was my least favourite rusty lake game. For the price, it was a short game, so not value for money. I enjoyed paradise far better..Version: 2.4

Simultaneously amazed and disappointedI love Rusty Lake games like I love chocolate cake and champagne. They are far and away the best games in the genre. And there was much to love about this one, which played more like a short novel than like a game. But. It was SO short. And so lacking in the wonderfully twisted aesthetic and clever puzzle construction I have come to expect from these devs. It is well worth playing and I recommend it, and I think I grok what they were trying to do here. But I hoped for more, and was left feeling a little unsatisfied. Nevertheless, I remain a rabid fan and will pay for and play anything these devs deign to release..Version: 1.7

MehWasn’t hard enough!!!!! I love all their other games though.Version: 1.8

Not worth the 3 dollarsI have played all of the other rusty lake games and was expecting the same level of thoughtfulness and complexity for this long-awaited game. Unfortunately, the game was too short in my opinion and lacked diversity in the tasks throughout. It also seemed like some of the interactions were there just for the sake of it, like dragging an object across the screen, or moving something back and forth which was confusing and unrewarding which became tedious quite fast. Overall, it’s not worth the 3 dollars. I have not lost hope in you rusty lake. I look forward to what you have to bring in the future!.Version: 1.7

Kinda disappointedI really love the Rusty Lake games and have played all the other apps, I absolutely love how they connect and was very excited to play this new one. To honest, I was kinda disappointed. I finished the game in an hour or so, not many puzzles and they were so easy! The story line is cool but the actual game needs a bit of work. I recommend rusty lake roots which I think is the most complete and cool of all of them, this one though felt like too much money for not much game..Version: 2.3

DireI am sorry guys, as an avid fan that’s played your games for many years this was a massive disappointment considering it took you a year! This is something that could have been cranked out within a month or two and in my opinion is more of a demo, with it’s extremely short run through, basic puzzles, and abrupt ending. Previous games some puzzles would baffle me, and take me an age to figure out. Every puzzle in this game we’re pretty much a no brainier and far too simple... Look at what made the other games a success and repeat it! This is the wrong direction..Version: 1.9

The worst rusty lake, not worth the anticipation.Seriously? THIS is what took forever to be released? This is in my opinion by far the worst rusty lake. It was way, way, too easy to beat. I beat the entire game in an hour and 15 minutes. There was no challenge to it whatsoever. The other rusty lake games at least require you to think to beat the puzzles. If you are a true rusty lake fan you’ll play it because you have to see what it is all about (like me). Otherwise save your time and money. I can’t believe this is what the hype was about, a delayed release date and all that waiting for an hour and 15 minute game. Games like hotel and seasons took far longer to play through. I really hope the next rusty lake game is better..Version: 1.6

Great story driven gameNot like the other cube escape games. Cool story, but the game doesn’t require much thinking, or problem solving. Just be prepared for a different type of game..Version: 2.4

I would give this game a 5 Star......butAn excellent game, unique and fresh. There is a lot to like. I would not have hesitated to give this game a 5 Star because already it surpasses in quality the dozens of Point and Click Games.......but........I had high expectations of this game......it didn’t exceed them. There was quite a repetitive element to it - less variety in perhaps some of the other Rusty Lake games; the puzzles where not overly challenging but nor where they too simple; some actions I thought were simplistic and almost bordering on pointless; to conclude excellent game, great concept, it works - developers, you can take this game and make it even better! A bit more VARIETY AND COMPLEXITY!?!? I look forward to hearing of updates and/or new games......by far the best games around....thank you!! 🙏.Version: 1.7

Unfortunate Intro to RLNever played a RL game before, and unfortunately this one isn’t doing it for me. It’s never all that creepy or weird, and the game is mostly just following simple instructions. I don’t have an issue with it being short, I just expected more to happen in that short time. It didn’t help that it also feels like a mediocre flash game. Controlling the game with touch feels pretty awkward a lot of the time, the voice acting is ok at best and is often cutting or talking over itself. There are very short music and sound effect loops that sound awful, like they were recorded 10 years ago. Fans of RL might get more out of it (though as far as I can tell this game stands alone), but I wouldn’t recommend it to newcomers..Version: 1.9

Not worth itIt’s so so easy. So fast. Not interesting. Definitely not worth paying for..Version: 2.3

OkayNot as good as previous games. It was pretty short and not very challenging. It was still fun enough to play, but after waiting for so long it was a letdown..Version: 1.7

A little disappointingI thoroughly enjoyed the new drag feature and moving the character along with the story. However, I agree with the other players that there wasn’t enough variety in the puzzles and the game was very short and very easy compared to all the other rusty lake games. I would consider this a beginners puzzle. Hoping the next release will be a bit more challenging, have a wider variety of puzzles and take longer than a few hours to complete..Version: 1.9

Short and sweet, but not as deepI love the rusty lake series, and I have played through them all. While this one is certainly the least “oh dear heavens what’s outside my window?!” and world-bending (while staying in the universe) of the series, it was very enjoyable. The story is esoteric and abstract, and classically somewhat convoluted. Beautiful music, and simple scenes to generate though. Much like GRIS. However, I love puzzles. I love Professor Layton, mist, all those where you’re hunting and clicking etc. that being said, I paid money for this game, and it was by far the easiest of the series. Not all secrets have been uncovered (so I guess those are stupid hard to even notice let alone solve), but considering I didn’t pay for the other rusty lakes I was left feeling a little...idk. Like it wasn’t worth the money? I happily paid money, I just didn’t expect to be done after 2 hours with the fun puzzles at the very end and that extra thing that happens if you’re clever..Version: 2.2

Hmm....🤔Very short and not as engaging as other Rusty Lake games. The puzzles are extremely easy and require no thought - which is disappointing really, as previous Rusty Lake offerings have been challenging. It’s not a complete dud, I liked the continuity of the story and the originality....it just didn’t hit the mark this time..Version: 1.7

Good game, but getting repetitiveI like Rusty Lake games a lot, but I’m getting tired of the same exact themes in all of them. Like previous games, the premise was clever and the puzzles were just the right level of difficult, more like brain teasers that were fun but not annoying, but I’d love to see another game from these folks that doesn’t have the same type of middle aged male protagonist who may or may not have killed a woman (usually a love interest) and the same Dark Soul good/evil duality thing. They have built a fascinating world and I just wish they’d do more with it than bring us the same narrative in different dressing. I’d really like to see these developers stretch themselves and tell a different sort of story that still lives within their unique universe. Rusty Lake: Roots and Rusty Lake: Paradise took a few more risks and branched our a bit more, I felt..Version: 2.0

Waaay to easyI do love Rusty Lake game. I really do. I’ve played all of them. But this one was somehow disappointing. Everything was too obvious. Too easy. Too “in your face”. You mainly have to follow what the characters say. I asked my 8 year old daughter to play the first few levels. She found it easy as well. She’s a kid. With time, I expect Rusty Lake games to become more complicated, harder to finish. I don’t know why you guys went this way, but think again. My 5 cents..Version: 1.9

Honest reviewI love Rusty lake. This was just not at the same level as previous games. No way near the same amount of puzzles and they were all so easy. Especially the tap along with the narration reminded me of a child’s game. Too much storyline and not enough puzzle. Really hoping for more complex and more traditional to their style for their next one. It’s still a good game and worth a play.Version: 1.6

BoringBoring game, doesn’t make much sense and finished very quickly. Waste of money and time.Version: 1.9

Not quite satisfiedI was really looking forward to another game from this series and although the content was in the same theme as the others and connected to the bigger story I didn’t feel there was nearly enough content, plot or decent puzzles as previous games. I finished it on a lunch break without needing to think about it as it was very repetitive. This series is my favourite mobile game but I feel this addition is lacking- more a mini game. I would rather wait longer for a chunkier gameplay..Version: 1.6

Not worth itThis game is far less comprehensive than previous Rusty Lake games. Super short, not challenging, and repetitive in its challenges. I wouldn’t waste your money. I was really looking forward to playing this game but was left unfortunately quite disappointed. Stick to the older games..Version: 1.7

Big let downI love your games im always excited each time theres a new release but this one was a big let down. Too short too repetitive no challenge and way less spooky then your past games i so hope the next one is gonna be a lot better..Version: 1.9

Ok, I guessThe game was fine, but pretty repetitive and very short. Finished it in a couple of sittings and unlike other rusty lake games nothing was even slightly difficult. I get that some of the challenge is in replaying to get achievements, but with no real clue about what I’m trying to achieve I don’t know where to begin so probably won’t bother. Replaying Hotel was great fun to get all the meals completed, this just feels like a chore. I’d been really looking forward to it, but just pretty disappointed now..Version: 1.7

Poor scriptRusty Lake, c’mon, seriously? The dialogues are like preschool level. As an old fan of the series I AM CONFUSED..Version: 2.3

MehI played all other Rusty Lake games 20+ times each but will probably never replay this one. Original, but very boring to repeat same actions or to simply do as the narator is asking us to do. Still, nice references to other games, but overall boring (it hurts me to write this)..Version: 2.1

So disappointedI am a huge fan of the rusty lakes games and like everyone, I couldn’t wait to play this game. I was so looking forward to exploring a new style of game by the rusty lake crew. But I have to say this game was absolutely terrible. Hardly any gameplay and what was there felt like a pre school pop up book. I am so very disappointed guys. What happened ???.Version: 1.7

Just a story that you click to move through - repetitiveI have loved all the Rusty Lake games. Normally the games are fun and challenging, but not this one. It is more like a story that you move through, rather than a challenging game. There are a few games within, but not like in previous Rusty Lake games. I would skip this one..Version: 2.3

Gameplay is a bit offI love Rusty Lake and have played every game and can’t get enough but this is a bit different. I like the split screen style play. But there is a backstory of course and having to complete actions to move the story along got tedious very quickly. When the story reads “I took another bite of donut” you have to make the character actually bite his donut before the story will move on. Pair it with these actions being so *sensitive* and I found myself trying to make the character bite the donut ten times before eventual success. Having to do all the tedious little actions just to get four lines of a story made it a chore to play and I lost interest..Version: 2.4

DisappointedI have played all their games and this one really let me down. The concept of this one is brand new and you have never seen it before. However, the puzzles in the game are too easy compared to their old games, and also the ways of solving them are the same/similar. I would say it’s a baby level puzzle. The game is ducking short too!!! I have been waiting for Rusty Lake’s new release for a long time and I guess that’s the reason I’m so disappointed as well. This game is not for their faithful followers. Please keep doing your fantastic job like before. We really want new games and new puzzles. Please..Version: 1.9

DisappointingI’m only writing this as a super fan of everything rusty lake and cube escape. Waited so long and pre-paid for this release but didn’t even bother finishing it. Just not enjoyable. I appreciate that this took a lot of work to make and really tried to like it. Please go back to making interesting puzzle stories that are difficult to solve. Still looking forward to the next game..Version: 2.3

Good but shortI always love Rusty Lake games. This is good, but there’s a lot of needless movements you need to do. What’s the point? Just animate it like before. It’s short and not very exciting. I prefer the previous style of game..Version: 1.6

DisappointingI have to agree with the other reviewers that this was a serious disappointment. Not at all on par with the other Rusty Lake games. Not one of the puzzles presented any kind of challenge. I believe there are some additional achievements, but I have no desire to go back through the motions for them. Hopefully the next game will be more in line with the original concepts.Version: 2.3

DullThis game is dull. The ridiculous number of REPETATIVE mechanical operations broke me. I can't even bring myself to waste the time to finish it. Not at all like other Rusty Lake games. Avoid..Version: 2.3

Interesting concept but fell flat a bitI love all rusty lake games - mostly because of the unique puzzles and dark themes and, although the concept of this one was intriguing, the puzzles seemed a bit simple and repetitive and the story really lacked that morbid, macabre theme, plus there wasn’t really an ‘ending’, the game just kind of stopped. I know the repetition of the puzzles was to portray the monotony of his life, but it was just a bit TOO monotonous. I didn’t really feel connected to the characters or story, and it seemed to only have one section with a dark visual that other rusty lake games have going on throughout. I found myself quickly clicking through everything to get into the story a bit more, to find the credits rolling way before I expected. A bit of a shame, especially for a paid Rusty Lake game, as not all of them cost money but still deliver a good puzzle game..Version: 1.9

Not challenging at allIf you’re looking for a challenging Rusty Lake game, this isn’t it. This “game” is more of a story book where half of the time, you are the story helper, moving the plot along by mimicking what the narrative tells you to manipulate and touch. The other half is a daily routine that repeats over several days with subtle changes for each day in the routine but still becomes repetitive. There are only a few puzzles, of which none are hard to solve. Since you can just sort of breeze along, the game goes by quickly. Under an hour. I was looking forward to this for a long time, sorry to say it was a little disappointing..Version: 1.6

It’s okayI love the game, the plot, the answers to the rusty lake story line, but it felt really short for what I paid..Version: 1.6
