I was late to Kathy Rain, but the release of the Director’s Cut put it on my radar. There’s nothing like a good point and click where you can get lost in the puzzles and narrative, and Kathy’s adventure didn’t disappoint in that regard. As a character she came across as the edgy teen, her dialogue sassy and sarcastic, but quite honestly I liked her more for it.

The most fun I had was trying to figure out the unfolding mystery, as well as the various obstacles—usually people—that got in the way. What pleasantly surprised me was the horror that came out of nowhere, the weirdness that came from the Twin Peaks inspiration getting altogether freaky.
