Kathy Rain has an elaborate and interesting story to tell, that goes beyond what you expect. That paired with a masterful mood makes for a well-rounded game. Some of the game’s themes involve religion and drug abuse, and they are handled with masterful writing and tactfulness.
Kathy has something for everyone who is interested in the p&c genre: a good mystery, an interesting arsenal of characters, beautiful and detailed locations, involving dialogue and, above all else, smart puzzles. Nothing like “combine a banana with a piece of shoe gum and some rope to make a slingshot”.
If any of you are looking for a solid and short p&c experience (and possibly a quick 100%), Kathy Rain is definitely one of my top recommendations.
If I recommended it at full price, you can now all be sure I’m basically throwing the game at your general direction for free.
