Lakeview Cabin Collection Overview
Lakeview Cabin Collection Free Download for PC is an initially idyllic looking cabin surrounded by woods and a large lake. Players are able to control several characters and have them interact with their surroundings. Characters can swim, drink, handle objects, and have intercourse with one another, however during the night the characters are hunted and are able to be killed by their pursuer. Players can also kill the characters off themselves via several different methods.
With each subsequent 'film', a new plot and set of protagonists are given to the player. Despite this, all 'films' have a shared setting of Camp Lakeview (for example, Lakeview Cabin IV is set around a band lost on tour, and their encounters with an inbred cannibal family living in a mansion across the lake as seen in Lakeview Cabin III), as shown by various in-game maps revealed in each film.

Development
Tamminen initially began developing the game as a small prototype with similar mechanics as the 8-bit Nintendo game Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers and chose to turn it into a survival horror game. Prior to further developing the first game Tamminen sought his wife's approval to make a horror game, as she was pregnant at this time and the first game's antagonists were a pregnant woman and her unborn fetus. While the first game had more of a cartoon-esque look, Tamminen decided to make the further episodes in 8-bit style, as he felt that this made it easier for him as a solo developer.
Tamminen has stated that the game's puzzles «came almost naturally» as he «just added items that you might usually find at a cabin, and then tried to think of at least three ways to use them. The obvious use, the „self-harm“ use and the use as a weapon.»
