Lake

Travel back to 1986 and take on the role of 40-something-year-old Meredith, who leaves the fast-paced drudgery of her big city life and returns to her quiet, rustic hometown. During her two-week stay in the beautiful lakeside community of Providence Oaks, Oregon, she'll fill in for her father – the local mail carrier – where she will not only deliver letters and parcels to new and old friendly faces but will also rekindle old friendships, make new ones, and maybe even find romance. At the end of her vacation, will Meredith return to the big city, or will she choose a different path for her life? It's up to players to steer the story how they see fit in this slice-of-life interactive game.

  • Travel back to 1986 and escape to a beautiful, rustic town that is free of the stresses of smartphones, the Internet, and social media.
  • Ditch that city life and desk job and go to drive your father's mail truck in rural Oregon, or kick up your feet and let auto-pilot do the work.
  • Choose from a variety of after-work activities that include hanging with friends, helping out your neighbors, or staying in with a good book.
  • Experience a branching story that doesn't shy away from slice-of-life themes. Like life, there are no right or wrong answers.
