Story
Uncover the truth behind its vanished children. Search abandoned classrooms, flooded halls, forgotten chapels, and impossible spaces as the line between reality and cosmic terror slowly disappears.
Survive terrifying creatures formed from the orphanage's missing children and staff.
Safe places are rare. Use candles to create temporary refuges, recover, plan your next move, and venture back into the darkness before the light fades.
Nothing in Black Lake exists without a reason. Experience a carefully crafted narrative where every location, encounter, and puzzle serves a greater purpose. Uncover the fate of the orphanage through exploration, observation, and the choices you make along the way.

We're Polydin Studio, an independent team that began as an outsourcing art studio, contributing to a range of indie and AA titles.
In the long term, we hope to expand Black Lake into an anthology of four chapters, each telling a different story within the same universe.
