Description
Sometimes coming home brings more questions than answers…
-----
Kathy Rain is a beautiful and nostalgic homage to the classic point-and-click adventure genre of games, built seamlessly for your touchscreen device. Search for clues and solve puzzles in a compelling small-town drama set in the mid-1990’s.
After learning of her grandfather’s untimely passing, Kathy Rain, a strong-willed journalism student, returns to her hometown for the first time in many years to pay her respects — but things are not what they seem. An air of mystery surrounds the circumstances of Joseph Rain’s death, involving unsolved investigations and disturbing behavior from the locals, driving Kathy to vow to uncover the truth for her widowed grandmother.
As she follows a trail of clues he left behind, questions emerge… What was Joseph Rain really looking for that night all those years ago? What turned him into a mere shell of a man, confined to a wheelchair? What secret did a suicidal young artist take with her to the grave, and why are so many people in Conwell Springs going mad? Armed with her motorcycle, a pack of smokes, and her sharp wit, Kathy soon discovers that the truth is more dark and sinister than she ever imagined…

What a treat
For me it combined the things I liked best about this kind of adventure game with just a few tasteful features that make it easier to play for a modern sensibility.
Managed to feel totally authentically from that era, with amazing attention to detail on props, sound effects, sampled music in low bitrate just like games of the era had, character animations. Nothing jumped out as inconsistent or anachronisms- desktop computers had 8mb of RAM! A working tape player with tapes? Fabulous.
The puzzles are probably a bit easier than the toughest of games back in that era, but I think the game flows better for it. It made me feel smart to work some of them out, and so far not so obscure that I didn’t have a good idea of what to do next. Absolutely love it.
Most importantly, it’s made it feel like I used to feel when playing those games.
Great game but...
Enjoying the game so far, interesting story line and I love old timey point and click adventure games.
HOWEVER the game keeps crashing every 5-10 minutes with an error message saying there could be a “script error”.
It’s very frustrating as I’d either have to save every 2 minutes or start all over.
Too much conversation
Pros: The story was well-written, the game looks nice and the voice-acting is good.
Cons: It’s so slow - way too much talking to characters, and not enough puzzle-solving. The puzzles were either really easy and obvious, or way too ambiguous. I didn’t like the music, it was monotonous and annoying - all of the tunes sound like a funeral dirge. All of the characters are stereotypes, and the game doesn’t feel original.
