Call of the Lake (AppID: 4118240)

Call of the Lake is an atmospheric visual novel horror inspired by classic cinema.

The story unfolds in a Soviet summer camp by a mysterious lake,

where an ordinary vacation slowly turns into a nightmare.

You play as Janis, a boy who arrives at the camp filled with carefree voices,

the scent of pine trees, and the sound of flagpoles clinking in the wind.

Everything feels familiar and peaceful… until whispers begin to rise from beneath the water,

and unease starts to spread across the faces of your friends —

a fear no one can explain.

This is a story about a childhood that won’t let go.

About a secret buried in the depths, and an attempt to understand

what really happened many years ago.

Perhaps, by telling this story, you too will feel the call.

Will you dare to look into the past if it calls to you from the depths? 💀
