The Rake
A downloadable game for Windows
ABOUT THE GAME
For years, people have reported sightings of a pale humanoid creature lurking deep in the forest. Most never return. You are a hunter sent to track and eliminate the creature known as The Rake. During the day you prepare — placing cameras, traps, and sensors across the forest. When night falls, the hunt begins. But the creature is not just prey. Sometimes… it hunts back.
GAMEPLAY
- Hunt a dangerous creature in a dark forest
- Place cameras and motion sensors

INSPIRATION
This game is heavily inspired by the game Rake, developed by Konsordo. The original game served as a major inspiration for the gameplay and overall atmosphere of this project.

Hey! The Rake has a really tense and atmospheric concept. The day/night structure where you spend the day setting up cameras, traps and sensors and then survive the night while the creature hunts back is such a smart way to build dread. Two months into development and it already sounds like a genuinely scary experience! 🌲👁️
We'd love to have The Rake listed on QUDO! It's a free gaming community platform where players actively look for indie games like this to discover and play. Listing is completely free and would get your game in front of more players who love horror and survival games. Would love to have you on board! 🎮
