The well-known philosophy of horror, which aims not only to scare the player but also to offer something special, is also at the heart of Scarlet Lake, an upcoming survival horror game inspired by titles such as Resident Evil 4, Dead Space, and Signalis. With a sharp, isometric visual style, Scarlet Lake can be found on Steam, where a new demo has just been released.
Players take on the role of Ben Murphy, a detective whose missing wife sent a mysterious letter inviting him to Scarlet Lake. Upon arrival, Ben's partner is shot, and he finds the town under quarantine due to a biological hazard. With no clear way out, Ben must navigate through the abandoned town, solve puzzles, manage limited resources, and choose between fighting or fleeing as he encounters grotesque creatures.
Scarlet Lake invites players to search for ammunition and supplies while carefully considering the choice between fighting or fleeing. The emphasis on resource management, exploration, and puzzle-solving gives it a retro feel, but the fluid gameplay and sharp visuals bring a modern twist to these familiar mechanics.
