Wonderful as usual!! I installed the game immediately after I got the notification that it was out, and played through it twice in a row. I love the split screen style and I really love the fact that we get so many details of the story from the main character's point of view!! The Rusty Lake games are by far my favorite games ever and as soon as a new one comes out, it's the best day ever!! And then I immediately want another game after I've played it!! Keep up the great work!!!!!

Game was very nice for relaxing and a short break. Saw that many people were confused by the plot, and soon understood they likely hadn't played other games from this creator. (You definitely should play their other games to understand some plot in this). I enjoyed the changes in the way the game was designed compared to the other games they have created. Only problem I had was when half of the screen turned and stayed white until I exited and reentered the game. Despite that, i liked it!

Not awful, but not the best. I found the idea to follow a schedule frustrating, as I just wanted to get tasks out of the way so I could explore the environment more. I knew I was missing the achievements, in the moment, but wish there was a way to play individual days so I didnt have to restart the game. I didnt hate this game, but Paradise was far better than this. However, I did love the storyline. It was very engaging and emotional. Gameplay was just... meh.

I loved this game's design! The split view panels made interacting with the world very intuitive and were utilized in some pretty clever ways. The achievements were required to round out the whole playing experience and really finish the game, so I recommend really working through them all. Great game, def worth the price if you really play through the whole thing (it's so freaking cheap though I'm not sure why other reviews even mention it). Can't wait for more games from this team!

I have loved all of the games, but this may be the most excited I've been for a game release. That being said if I'm being honest this one falls quite a bit short. The puzzles are a bit on the nose. It kind of leads you directly to the answers and then moves on. I always enjoy the story lines though! And the different gameplay style works pretty well! Would be nice to combine the styles for a mega game that is much more dark and difficult. In conclusion I bought this game and will buy the next.

Game was ok, but seemed lacking when compared to other Rusty Lakes games. I wouldn't recommend it for the price paid. The story was a bit interesting and there were creative links to other games in series but it felt shallow or incomplete. Most of the actions are just tedious directions instead of really compelling puzzles through the story. I don't think the value of cost versus time/content/challenge is worth it in this instance. Save the money and skip this one.

Gone are the days of inventory and flipping around in a cube in The White Door, but is necessarily a good thing? The White Door is much easier than previous games, but still worth the purchase. With a linear storyline and iconic graphics, The White Door ties in beautifully to other Rusty Lake games while still working as a stand-alone piece. It is more of an interactive story than a game, with a few brain teasers. It is sure to satisfy Rusty Lake fans.

I have had so much fun playing the rusty lake games. This one was awful. The "puzzles" weren't even puzzles. There was nothing challenging to figure out. I finished the whole game in a little over two houra and it was all just storyline filler. There was no "game" to it. Horribly disappointed. Have played all previous games and got all achievements and was anxiously awaiting this release. I like the split screen idea, but you could have done so much better.

This one is, as the developer has said, more of a story than a game. It's a fantastic little story, and there are lots of Easter eggs and hidden achievements that make it even better. It's not as immersive as the Cube games, admittedly, even with what I've found of the secret levels. But it continues the Rusty Lake story beautifully, and makes me want more, as always.

I love this game sm. Before it was officially out, it was already on my wishlist. it's really fun and challenging. Although, it is pretty short. I mean I understand it takes hard work to complete one game, but I think itd be better if it were longer. No other complaints! I love the designs, sounds, background story, it's just all put together nicely., I love games like this!! edit: (to answer the creators response) I didnt manage to find all of them but I think I found 2?

I am a die hard Rusty Lake fan. They all had difficult and interesting puzzles, great stories, and all tie into one larger lore that I just eat up. White Door just falls short. It's good but when you compare it to Roots or Paradise (their other paid for titles) it is lackluster. That being said it is a good game! I loooove the duel screen aspect, the all white, and the style of gameplay. I would buy this game again. I only hope to see more from Rusty Lake.

I purchased and played every Rusty Lake game there is, and this one was entertaining and creative. The puzzles, albeit challenging, are much easier than previous games. Graphics are the usual minimalist style, and audio is okay but not innovative. Story is vague and not complex. Game lacks the anticipated creepiness Rusty Lake is famous for and is their real differentiator in a very competitive gaming market. Please go back to your old lovable creepy style which why we buy your games.

Great game as always from Rusty Lake. I *really* enjoyed the "follow the command" kind of interaction. Puzzles were just tough enough to make you think without making you pissed. Always fantastic soundtrack on the edge of creepy at some points. A real testament that perfect 3D rendering or super vivid animation DOESN'T make a game. Story & gameplay do. 5/5 in every way.

I've officially played all of the rusty lake games & I NEED MORE. Nothing compares to how eloquent & immersive it is. I love how interconnected they all truly are whether it's just an easter egg or a full cast of characters shown in previous games, etc. I haven't been able to find any puzzle games like it, so now I feel stuck without another one of your games left to move to. Absolutely amazing game(s)

Way too short for a $3.50 game. I know there's a bonus basement level, but the main story is still way too short and ends extremely abruptly. For over $3 I expected to get a nice amount of gameplay and instead it took me about 2 hours to get through. The a full gameplay is engrossing and unique. The split screen experience is really cool and makes the world feel bigger. It was entertaining, challenging, and fun, but it just didn't last very long.

Another great game by this publisher. It ties into the rusty lake lore and I absolutely love that. And I don't know if I just play too many of these games but I finished in a single sitting. Still a fantastic game! A note to the devs. The dragging mechanic, like when sliding things off screen, is incredibly knacky and you have to get just right otherwise nothing happens. It can really hurt the immersion

A good fix for a Rusty Lake fan like me. Good story, kept me busy for a couple hours. I'll try and complete all the achievements, but since it cost a little over $3.00, I feel like it either could've been a bit longer, or a bit more challenging. Looking forward to any new games. Noticed that if I turn my screen off, when I turn the screen back on to play, the music doesn't play unless I restart the app. Doesn't happen if I pause before turning my screen off. But that happens with other games.
