May 2025

The plot of Heavy Rain revolves around the case of a serial killer called the Origami Killer. His nickname comes from the paper works he leaves on the bodies of his victims. The player controls four characters, whose stories intertwine. The protagonists of the game are: Ethan Mars, who is trying to save his kidnapped son, journalist Madison Paige, detective Scott Shelby, and FBI agent Norman Jayden. Each of these people has a completely different story and motivation. ✅✅✅Another review of mine and another excellent game where I liked almost everything ✅The ability to play as several characters, which means that we can observe how the plot develops from different perspectives (Just like in Detroit Become Human) ✅Strong and suspenseful plot until the very end ✅Very engaging crime plot ✅The visuals, even after so many years are impressive ✅Plenty of surprising plot twists ✅Choices that have a huge impact on the course of the game ✅Interesting NPCs and their stories ✅Greatly written characters ✅Cinematic style ✅Interactive thriller packed with QTE elements where the speed of reaction is of no small importance ✅Dozen or so different endings ✅Motifs with collecting traces ✅The choices really affect the plot, ✅IWO and its possibilities ✅Good soundtrack ✅Length of the game ✅The price of the game is okay ❌few crashes and animation cuts ❌forced love story

April 2025

A game where you can dramatically yell 'JASON!' in public and it’s considered immersive gameplay. Masterpiece.

March 2025

(-)Control: Controlling the character in this game feels like teaching a toddler how to moonwalk. (-)Story: Overall, the story was good, but it has too many plot holes. (-)Chapter 3: I remember playing the demo a couple of years ago, and now I understand why it started at Chapter 4… Chapter 3 (Father and Son) was written so badly. (-)Voice Acting: Some performances are great, while others sound like the actors were given the script five minutes before recording.

Nov. 2024

Very cool story but the pc version of this game, the controls make the game almost unplayable. Keyboard and mouse controls are ridiculous. Over the 11 hours I played it, I had to force close the app 10 - 15 times due to controls not working or not responding and it crashed about 10 times. Love the story, seems like no thought whatsoever was given to pc version of this game. Probably way better on console

Nov. 2024

Accidentally binge played it in a day, I couldn't stop, too good, I will be thinking about this for a while. Loved it & every character. Even the evil ones.
