Hello Im Skill Incarnate and Welcome to My Games Review Series.
My reviews cover indie games that i have bought, had gifted to me and have been provided by developers for review.

In this episode im checking out a different title to my usual with Lake. This game was developed by Gamious, who also worked on the Wild West oil mining game Turmoil and was published by Whitehorn Games, who released the Anime Platformer Evans Remains which ive also reviewed. The version im reviewing is the Special Delivery Edition, which includes both the original Lake, as well as the Christmas themed Seasons Greetings episode.
The story takes place during the 1980s, and follows the lives of the Weiss family, in the sleepy American town of Providence Oaks. Youll control both Thomas Weiss and his daughter Meredith, as they navigate their daily lives and interact with the inhabitants of Providence Oaks, building relationships and solving their problems. The games strength lies in
its strong character development, engrossing narrative and its relaxed pace.

Lake is a surprisingly good Slice Of Life style game, hitting the perfect mix of a cosy feel and an interesting story and characters. If your a fan of this style of game then I highly recommend picking it up. Even if you dont regularly play this style of game like myself, its still worth a try.

Please note: All opinions in this video are my own. Game was provided by the developer for review purposes

================================================

This Special Delivery bundle contains Lake and its DLC Season's Greetings! Two games delivered in one package, with a 20% discount.

Lake

It's September 1, 1986. You take on the role of forty-something Meredith Weiss, who returns from the big city to her quiet hometown. She exchanges her busy career at a software company to fill in for her dad, the local mail carrier.

During her two-week stay in beautiful Providence Oaks, Oregon, she runs into a few familiar faces as well as plenty of new folk. As Meredith, you get to decide who to talk to, who to befriend and perhaps even start a romantic relationship with.

Whatever happens, at the end of her stint she'll have to make up her mind: return to her demanding job in the big city, or stay in the town she grew up in?

Season's Greetings

Grab your snow boots and a cup of hot cocoa for Lake’s holiday-themed prequel: Season’s Greetings!

It's Christmas time, 1985. You take on the role of Meredith's dad, Thomas Weiss, and will be treated to a warm reunion with Providence Oaks and its inhabitants. Get answers to questions that were teased in Lake, meet five completely new characters, and find out which role an almost retired postal worker can play in delivering the Christmas spirit to Providence Oaks.

Jolly storylines, cozily-lit drives around the snowy town, and a heart-warming gaming experience await you!
