Scarlet Lake is a retro-style survival horror, developed by Nocturnal Interactive, centering on a detective trying to uncover the mystery of a small town. The developer notes that players who enjoy the atmosphere of games like Signalis, Holstin, Crow Country, and Resident Evil 4 may find the game especially appealing.
The main character, detective Ben Murphy, receives a message from his missing wife telling him to come to the town of Scarlet Lake. The town is under restrictions by the government, with ongoing tests carried out within its walls, and only authorized personnel are allowed to enter.
