Rusty Lake's next weird adventure Underground Blossom is out this month

8 months 1 week ago

Underground Blossom, the latest instalment in developer Rusty Lake's surreal puzzle saga, has a release date: it'll be careening through the tunnels of time and rolling into a distinctly Steam-shaped station on Wednesday, 27th September.

The Rusty Lake games, if you're unfamiliar, meld casual point-and-click puzzling with room-escape-style conundrums to tell a deliciously weird, loosely interconnected tale orbiting (to a greater or lesser degree, depending on the title) the lives of the Vanderboom family. The series generally falls into two camps; shorter, free-to-play offerings under the Cube Escape banner, and longer premium offerings that tend to be more substantial and more creatively ambitious.

Underground Blossom - which follows last year's wonderfully inventive co-operative puzzler The Past Within - falls into the latter camp, this time taking players on a journey, via the Rusty Lake underground system, through the life and memories of Laura Vanderboom, who was introduced all the way back in the series' first outing, Cube Escape: Seasons.
