Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer

“Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer is a bigger and bolder sequel in every way, and for the most part, delivers on its promise of a darker, deeper mystery with higher stakes.”

“Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer is an ideal title for fans of point-and-click adventures who enjoy well-written horror stories combined with detective-style plots.”

“Despite that, Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer is easy to recommend to fans of the genre. It offers an excellent story that ties back to the original game while expanding Kathy’s world a great deal. There are definitely elements here which feel like they could have supported additional exploration, but what’s here is well-made and slickly presented. Just make sure you play the original game first.”

“Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer from developer Clifftop Games brings to life a classic point-and-click construct featuring a difficult mystery, minor puzzle solving, and superb presentation to complete the adventure.”

“Kathy Rain 2 isn't bad. Its puzzle design is excellent, and Clifftop's artists made one of the best-looking pixel games around. It just doesn't live up to its full potential and plays more like a quick homage to classic genres than a well-considered mystery thriller in its own right.”

“Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer takes everything from the first game and improves it, with stronger puzzles and an intriguing story. Fans of point-and-click adventure games will find an enjoyable experience here, and fans of the first game should enjoy seeing how Kathy’s murder investigation unfolds.”

“Kathy Rain 2 has shown us how to make a successful sequel - with more challenging puzzles, more locations, more characters, and a deeper, more grounded story.”

“Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer is what you'd expect from the sequel to a decent adventure: thoughtful, bigger with harder puzzles and an equally well-written story to back it up.”

“Featuring fantastic voice acting, excellent puzzles and a narrative that keeps you gripped, Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer deserves a place in the point-and-click adventure hall of fame. Those who prefer grounded, realistic stories might rue its sharp turn into cosmic horror towards the end, but it's hardly a dealbreaker.”

“The hard-boiled hard rock detective is back with one hell of a hangover and an arm’s length of bills to pay in Kathy Rain 2.”
