Detective: Opens the globe without the globe key Me: Wait that's illegal

[@CapMan275]

Took me 30 minutes to figure out how to open it...

[@aminelm2474]

@@CapMan275 can you explain how to do it pls?

[@CapMan275]

@@aminelm2474 if you look at the slide on the globe, you have to work backwards to connect the starting point to final point. So if you go to the very last slide and start at the finish, you will use the various landmarks on the slides to navigate your way to the start. For example, there is one part when the boat is approaching a valley, so you connect the dots from the water through the valley to the city. It's rather tricky. It's even more difficult to explain but I hoped it kind of helped. I'm sure you could find an actual how to video for the game and just fast forward to that point.

This is a dream come true for any fan of the games. There are so many things to enjoy in this short film. The attention to detail, the fantastic acting (something that is no small feat given how little dialogue there is), the fantastic sets, the incredible atmosphere, the call-backs and especially that wonderful meeting with Mr Crow in that misty forest. I have been following this wonderful series of gems ever since at least Cube Escape: Case 23 and it has only gotten better with time, especially the story-telling and the characters have come a long way. I love the bizarre world that has been created and the way that it manages to suck you in to a point where things can make no sense and it doesn’t impact the experience anyway. I honestly can not put my love for this series into words and I want to really thank Rusty Lake for going the extra mile with this short film, adding it to the extremely short list of films based on games that actually lives up to their source-material. I am eagerly looking forward to whatever Rusty Lake has in store next, the Lake has sunk into my mind and is never going to leave.

Dale: ”NOO!” *Runs into water, worrying for someone he already had seen dead*

[@Gardengap]

I thought that too

[@spritelady4669]

The best part of this short film is how completely and utterly confused Dale is every time something weird goes down. We usually don't get to experience the character we control's thoughts or reactions in the games. Which is a bit odd itself considering that they all have an important role story-wise. So seeing Dale so bewildered in this 18 minute masterpiece is not only a joy, but a really odd reliving feeling. It's nice to know that whoever I get stuck controlling is as baffled as I am with what happens by the lake.

[@totagamefull]

True, at least for me it was an big problem in paradise where the entire eilander family never made an single reaction of confusion during the entire game.

[@Shandrii]

I actually love that the characters are usually so stoic.

[@treadingwater86]

totagamefull Well, remember that the Eilanders have known about the mythology of the Lake and its mysterious power for presumably a long time based on how they act and what we see in the game. They flat out worship the Lake and the wisdom that it supposedly is capable of giving. By the time Jacob comes back to Paradise, the other characters are not only aware of the strangeness that is coming but seems to almost accept it. At least that is the way that I see it, I might be totally wrong. But if there is something that I have learned to accept in this strange world that we love so much in spite of how much it confuses us, it is that those that are connected to the Lake in some fashion always behave in a strange manor.

I just noticed a nice detail (spoilers for chapter 2): When Dale opens the drawer with the fish, he flinches, not because it smells bad or because it's gross, but because, as his file states, he has a fear for fish. He must've been terrified of Mr. Owl's final form then.
