About this game

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…

Ratings and reviews

Awesome game, great throwback graphics, excellent story and voice acting. The game itself was extremely easy. Could have used a red herring or 12, there were only maybe 2 times I didn't just plow through the game. I'm pretty familiar with this genre however so maybe it's just me 🤷‍♂️ Can't wait for another one tho, keep up the great work.

Excellent, excellent, EXCELLENT game. The storyline, characters, and voice acting are incredible. Although there were times I found myself stuck, there were many different avenues to take in order to find the correct path that don't give away too much. You don't want games like this being too easy, but it's not impossible to discover what you need to progress. I even really liked the fact that the creators of the game blocked-out useless, previously explored, or used items and areas.

What an interesting story! It takes a second to get beyond the "mundane" beginning, but it does well setting up the characters' personalities and setting the tone, so that when the craziness starts happening you're equipped to handle it. Gameplay-wise, it's intuitive with touch controls, hunting and picking for things to do and what-goes-with-what. You can hold the screen for interaction hints. My only disappointment with the game is that it's much more linear than their other game Whispers of a Machine, but since this game came first that's fine. Both games were really fun and I think I'll be getting the rest of their catalog!
