Kathy’s grandfather, who she hasn’t seen in years, has passed away, so she returns to her hometown to go to his funeral.
If you haven’t played it before, Kathy Rain: Director’s Cut tells a Twin Peaks-inspired story that starts off with one of my least favorite narrative tropes.
There isn’t all that much new stuff, but Kathy Rain remains an engrossing, smart adventure game that gripped me from start to finish. The game runs on a brand new engine and has a small number of significant differences that make it much easier to play than its previous incarnation. The game isn’t free to owners of the original, and it’s so technologically different that it likely couldn’t have been updated without being replaced outright. The hardest thing about critically assessing Kathy Rain: Director’s Cut is that, while the game is noticeably different from its original release, it’s not that different in regards to content.
