Rose (from Rusty Lake Roots) was in contact with the spirit of Mr Crow's brother (her great great grandfather I believe) and wanted to help him come back to life. Spoilers for the end of Rusty Lake roots, by the end she does a lot of alchemy magic and creates a new reincarnation of her great great grandfather who she gives birth to and raises as her daughter named Laura. Laura is then one of the main/important characters of the Cube Escape games and somehow tied to White Door (given that Sarah from White Door was trying to erase her). I believe in this game you are playing as the Great Grandfather's spirit (as his soul was corrupted due to the elixir) and you're trying to find your way back to life. But that end part is just my guess.
i'm not gonna lie...i thought he already did...or at least played a few of them. .-. edit: although tbf, they ARE releasing the Cube Escape games onto Steam at some point later this year, so maybe Jesse's waiting for that?
@@horatio_lionheart if he has, I don't think he ever recorded it (or at least not posted it on TH-cam). He also doesn't recognize characters/scenes in the rusty lake games that are also from Cube Escape.
@@chugiakjrtheplaywwright6461 He played and streamed "Cube Escape: Paradox" back near when that released (Not sure about the other games). The VoDs are still up on Facebook.
Well, the Cube Escape Collection will be released in a couple hours on steam, so maybe he will have an excuse to play them in like... a few months or something.
I was really proud of myself for getting through this pretty easily for me but then they were like"Thank you for playing this tiny little silly game for our fans.

I really would love to see Jessie play the Cube Escape games one day especially since he ends up so confused about the lore a lot of the answers are in those games.
Never before have I ever watched a grown man struggle SO much with telling the time. Every single time he looked at the clock he got the time wrong somehow. Good Lord, Jesse.
Weird coincidence, I only just played this game myself. Nice to see you play through this right after. I hadn't tried any Rusty Lake games before this, so I ended up checking out their other games, like the entire Cube Escape series. Overall I like them, but I do sometimes have a problem with the logic or pixel hunting. Arles, The Mill, Birthday, and Theatre I think were the ones I liked the most out of them. Those made sense to figure out and had a nice flow and clever puzzles.
Crazy theory that I’m pretty much only saying a joke: the Rusty Lake series is a prequel to D and they’re all vampires (evidence: both have a blonde woman named Laura)
Wasn't this on notdoppler or armor games or something? I know I've played this before when I was younger, going into the dead dude's mouth freaked the hell out of me
Wait... So Laura is the Women From the White Door, who is also the reincarnation of William? And she has memories of the Hotel, which she draws in a book with the Tree on the cover? And the White Room's manager wants her for her memories (They showed They can extract it from people). So who is Sarah, does she Works for the Vanderboom family, and is The Manager searching for the secret to the Elixir?
*1:* NGL, that little lizard is cute as hell. *2:* Old naked man falling out of a clock? Yup. I guess that's far for the course in Rusty Lake. *3:* "So I can fill up the water from the Fish World..." Yup. Such is life in Rusty Lake. *4:* And now we become the worm, travel down an old man's throat and enter the woods? Yup. That's Rusty Lake for you. *5:* Worm + Heart = Gecko + Fish. Yup. Rusty Lake. *6:* You ever take a knife to the Moon, only to find that it's got a big eye? Yup. When that happens, you know you're in Rusty Lake. *7:* So you've fed a worm, a heart, a fish and a gecko to a stork, and it coughs up a wee bab. Yup. Do you think you're NOT in Rusty Lake? *8:* Okay, so I think that girl was the one from Rusty Lake Roots, who performed the resurrection of- AH. Now I get it. This was all about the rebirth of William Vanderboom. *9:* By your powers combined, he is sleeping inside of a giant shrimp! Yup. Still in Rusty Lake. *10:* Pretty sure that "symbol" is in Sanskrit. And given how it was mentioned that samsara was a Sanskrit word, I'd hazard a guess that that word on the wall is samsara. After all, I haven't seen any other pieces of Sanskrit. *11:* ...I sure do hope that Nick Nocturne's gonna do a video on this series. It seems like it'd be right up his alley.
@PatLo Roldan Too right. It's been a while since Nick's covered a game on the channel. Hell, the last game-related thing I saw was the Chaotic Fiction livestream where he had fun with A.I Dungeon. That, and his coverage of the Chip Time webseries about a haunted DOS game. Even though the Rusty Lake/Cube Escape franchise is still ongoing, I feel like Nick could probably give some concise insight into what's going on with "the story so far".
These games are nuts :D Hoper you will play the Cube Escape games as well, now they are getting re-released on steam somewhat beefed up and shiny Argh, those Rusty lake ARG's are driving me crazy :D So obscure.
I had this advertised to me when I downloaded the arcana and I did not want to try it Lmao. Thanks for playing it Jesse so I can experience second hand fear instead lol
I've come to notice that Jesse looks like my stepdad... But then again slap a big ginger beard on a jolly white guy with glasses and they start to look the same.
i got this answer from reddit and i can confirm as a player that it's a great order! Cube Escape: Seasons Cube Escape: The Lake Cube Escape: Arles Cube Escape: Harvey's Box Cube Escape: Case 23 Cube Escape: The Mill Rusty Lake Hotel Cube Escape: Birthday Cube Escape: Theatre Rusty Lake: Roots Cube Escape: The Cave Rusty Lake Paradise Rusty Lake: Paradox hope you enjoy :)
10 minutes in, and I've already seen Jesse click the bold outlined bubble, then the same, already seen to be wrong bubble, six times. Currently wondering if the hour long playtime is another 50 minutes of this same move. Have you been breaking Quarantine, Jesse? 'Cause yesterday I saw a Scary Game Squad video, and today you seen to have contracted Jirard Syndrome.
Man, the people that don't know how to read "military time" (or for the rest of the world, 24-hour standard) is baffling to me. Jesse is apparently one of them. After 12:00 (noon), just subtract 12 from the hours and it will give you the 12-hour format time, or clockface times. 14:00 - 12 = 2 pm.
Watching you play this makes me want to reccomend Cultist Simulator to you so badly. Its essentially a reading sim, so its perfect for a Lore Nerd like you!
It really was a grandfather clock!
If Rusty Lake is about anything, it's about exploring the bodies of old men.
a scary game w Dodger, an SGS, and now another Rusty Lake game? youre spoiling us!!!
but the SGS is tired and needs to be put to rest (this is only my opinion)
@@sinswhisper9588 I'd argue that is one of the most popular segments on his channel

God I hope you play all the rusty lake games, I'm so invested in this awesome universe
He already played, was awesome
I love Jesse’s flabbergasted responses
I don't think he played the Cube Escapes which focuses more on the detective
@@NayaVoras He hasn't played the Cube Escape games, which fill in more of the story & lore
I wouldn't be to surprised if Jesse picks up the Cube Escape games now when they get re-released on Steam all new and shiny.
If there’s one thing I love about Rusty Lake games, it’s that all the wallpaper is phenomenally ugly.

2:55 isn't 3:55 nyargh
You're the hero that I needed.
I keep thinking the same thing!
It's killing me!
oh Jesse you spoil me two rusty lake game playthroughs so close together
I remember playing the original version of this before I knew what the Rusty Lake games were.
I caught myself just yelling at my phone. "That's 2:55. That's 2:55. You need 3:55" lol
loved Dooger's playthrough on this. Now, I'm excited to watch your's!! :D
Oh thank goodness you have an upload on youtube. For some reason the vod won't show up on twitch
I really would love to see Jessie play the Cube Escape games one day especially since he ends up so confused about the lore a lot of the answers are in those games.
These games are always just watching the LPer descending into madness because you never know what to do next.
40:41 Jesse's face when he realized he's Mothman!!! 😂😂
yes that face was priceless!
Aww, sweet! More Rusty Lake, please! Such unique minds.
It's the Rusty Lake revolution! I am ALL IN FOR IT!
jess picks up water, then eart, my brain clicks in right away, watch for a few mins while he toddles about figuring it out XD
Oh dude! I JUST played this on the phone, it is a very high quality game. So many confusing and satisfying puzzles and methods to solve them
Oh thank god I needed some good Jesse content to disassociate with tonight.
Thank you for giving us a playthrough to sleep to. I love it sir Cox
6:17 Someone's using the internet, Jesse. You just messed up their connection.
"Life will find a way!" (Jeff Goldblum is that you??)
A much necessary upload for today Mr. Cox. Thank you and bless ya heart ♥️
I was hoping you'd play this. If it weren't for you I wouldn't even know this series existed. I love it so much. Thanks for the great video.
Never before have I ever watched a grown man struggle SO much with telling the time. Every single time he looked at the clock he got the time wrong somehow. Good Lord, Jesse.
pump the brakes man
@@getsomebud I'M SORRY, OKAY?
Jesse playing bizarre adventure games is the stuff I live for
Jesse's reaction to finding what was in the guy's mouth had me cackling 😂

Oh thank God I was disappointed when I couldn't find the VOD thanks Jesse :D
I love your Rusty Lake videos.
Crazy theory that I’m pretty much only saying a joke: the Rusty Lake series is a prequel to D and they’re all vampires (evidence: both have a blonde woman named Laura)
Solid evidence there.
1:05:19 There is said that sunflowers always follow the sun. This one was stronger than his brothers.
3:55!
Sets the clock to 2:55
Oh i LOVE this series of online games. Such a good escape game. :D
stomach forest yay rusty lake giving really weird stuff
Wasn't this on notdoppler or armor games or something? I know I've played this before when I was younger, going into the dead dude's mouth freaked the hell out of me
good to see ya back in track man
17:47- 19:42 is my favorite part
Love the rendition of "Entire history of the Soviet union, to the theme of tetris"
This game is so soothing I need to play it
Also, Samsara, rebirth, not escaping the cycle, SO good!!
Wait... So Laura is the Women From the White Door, who is also the reincarnation of William? And she has memories of the Hotel, which she draws in a book with the Tree on the cover? And the White Room's manager wants her for her memories (They showed They can extract it from people). So who is Sarah, does she Works for the Vanderboom family, and is The Manager searching for the secret to the Elixir?
So many references to Roots! Please play the cube escape games Jesse, they are free.
17:45
+1 LIKE for the Tetris song!
Jesse, you need to play the cube escape games. Some actually tie into the whole story
*1:* NGL, that little lizard is cute as hell.
*2:* Old naked man falling out of a clock? Yup. I guess that's far for the course in Rusty Lake.
*3:* "So I can fill up the water from the Fish World..." Yup. Such is life in Rusty Lake.

I needed this.
this is so weird i literally just played this on a plane!!
interesting, the cloth the baby had is the same pattern as the woman from the white door
This video of a dude playing a game was preceded by an advertisement which was another dude playing a different game.
can some one make a jesse rusty lake play list i'd love to watch more of this in order
whoa, watching this on March 30th on the anniverary of the Van Gogh tweet. Spooky!
?!
These games are nuts :D
Hoper you will play the Cube Escape games as well, now they are getting re-released on steam somewhat beefed up and shiny
Argh, those Rusty lake ARG's are driving me crazy :D So obscure.
was this a streamed game? Didn't see anything on Jesse's twitch?
Love these games! Keep it up Cox!
I wanted to watch the stream vod but it was gone :(
Did the Twitch VOD get removed? Anyways, thanks for the upload!
Legendary.
Love the content man. Keep up the awesome work!
god i love a good rusty lake game!
I had this advertised to me when I downloaded the arcana and I did not want to try it Lmao. Thanks for playing it Jesse so I can experience second hand fear instead lol
Just in time for me to watch this while I poop. Unfortunately this means I have to poop for 90 minutes. Sorry, other people in the house.
son PLEASe I just had a big glass of lemonade and a snickers LET ME IN
17:44 💃🏻🕺🏻
it's not scary, its weird! A good kind of weird! :)
This is a remake of their very first game, interestingly. armorgames.com/play/15675/samsara-room
Why was old Jesse in the clock naked and dead?
Rusty Lake!
How did Jessie get the word puzzle so fast? All I could see was "helmet nine g"
1:28:27 Please, don't compare that shit with Rusty Lake.
I've come to notice that Jesse looks like my stepdad...
But then again slap a big ginger beard on a jolly white guy with glasses and they start to look the same.
Hey Jesse!!
is that oldman Jesse in th eclock?
mercy
Oi !! This smells like a scary game and yettt its without thee squad :P
Oh well, i dig it anyways! Jessee
Another thing you can use your matches to weight as well lmao
Do you plan on playing The Last Of Us 2?
He posted on Twitter that he won't be playing it.
i prevail
So I’m just getting into this game series, and I’m so confused. Which game do I start with? I couldn’t find a definitive answer.

Am I the only one who automatically says “bless you” whenever someone sneezes? Be it irl or watching when a youtuber or even while playing a game.
First thing I see is a butt in the mirror.
Jesse is bad a clock. He's actually bad at game.
Rusty Lake Roots was the best Rusty Lake game.
"Alternate reality games" are not real.
First to say first...
Watching you play this makes me want to reccomend Cultist Simulator to you so badly. Its essentially a reading sim, so its perfect for a Lore Nerd like you!
