Nineteen games between 2015 and 2026, plus one compilation. Rusty Lake ships them across two lines: the short Cube Escape entries, and the longer standalone releases. They interleave — the lines run in parallel, not one after the other.
For the order to play them in, see Rusty Lake games in order.
Cube Escape (10)

The Past Within is the odd one: two players, two different builds, played simultaneously. It is also the only entry to reach Nintendo Switch.
Cube Escape Collection
Released 2020 on Steam. Bundles the first nine Cube Escape games into one package — the cheapest way to play entries 1–9 on PC. It is a compilation, not a twentieth game, and the individual Cube Escape entries remain free on mobile.
Counting note
Nineteen is the studio's own count: Servant of the Lake is described as the nineteenth Rusty Lake game and the eighth premium one. The Collection is excluded from that count. Lists that say twenty are usually counting it.
Walkthroughs
Per-game walkthroughs go up as each one clears a two-source check:
- Cube Escape: Seasons — every code, all four seasons
- Rusty Lake Hotel — six confirmed codes across the five rooms
