User reviews & Ratings
Explore reviews from Steam users sharing their experiences and what they love about the game.
When people say sequels are usually worse, there are always exceptions—and Kathy Rain 2 is proof of that. Not only does it live up to the first game, it also reinvents itself in certain ways, without ever losing sight of what made it great in the first place. Here we have top-notch pixel art, sound design, direction, atmosphere. There's a subtle Gabriel Knight scent in the air, with supernatural mysticism and mature themes. No, there are no jokes or Monkey Island-style winks—thank God. Kathy Rain takes itself seriously, and it shows up to the point-and-click party with its own identity: deep, evocative, and memorable. It’s the kind of game you finish already knowing you'll come back to it, because nothing else quite scratches the same itch. I sincerely hope they’re already working on a third entry. These developers know exactly what they’re doing, and it shows in every little detail. Congratulations —and thank you.

Score: 9/10 Cathy Rain 2: The Soothsayer did not disappoint me one bit. It was exactly what I needed for 1–2 hours of meaningful daily enjoyment. A game that reminds you why we love video games in the first place. What I personally consider its greatest strength — though some may see it as a negative — is that all the puzzles are completely logical. There’s no "guess what the dev was thinking" moment. Everything you do feels like something a real person would actually try. It grounds the game in a way that makes the experience feel real and immersive. The first half, with its stronger detective flow, is an absolute joy. The notebook mechanic is one of the best implementations I've seen in the genre. Personal highlights include the hacking puzzle and a certain Lucas-related sequence that peaks the game’s tension beautifully (no spoilers!). Kathy herself remains fundamentally the same, but you can clearly feel the weight of her past leaving deeper marks. She's more vulnerable now — but also more determined to see things through. I usually don’t enjoy supernatural elements in detective stories, but here it’s handled as smoothly and meaningfully as possible. I would’ve loved a bit more depth in that area, but tied with the lore of the first game, it feels adequate. This isn’t a Gabriel Knight-style mythology; it’s more like a psychological hell — a kind of mental torment that shapes everything. Pacing-wise, it’s just right. The puzzles are organic and never get in the way of storytelling. The final act shifts into a surreal, artistic descent — like staring at a masterwork painted during a moment of madness, and you can’t look away. As a fan of pixel art, I absolutely loved the visuals — detailed, beautiful, and consistent. The music does exactly what it should: support the atmosphere without being intrusive. The main voice cast fits their characters wonderfully. As a sequel, it truly pushes the story forward and clarifies several points of lore. It also makes you want to see Kathy take on new adventures, beyond this town, beyond this pattern. In that sense, it's a game that gives hope to the genre: proof that great point-and-clicks can still be made today. The ending is exactly what it should be — a descent into the psyche, delivered with atmosphere and closure. It doesn’t try to bait you into a sequel. It respects the player and the story it tells. I wholeheartedly recommend this game to fans of traditional point-and-click adventures — and even to newcomers. Its logical design and smooth flow make it a perfect entry point. It took me around 11 hours, playing at a relaxed pace, and I genuinely enjoyed every moment without ever feeling bored or disconnected. This is what video games are made for.

I'm a huge fan of the first Kathy Rain. I loved it so much, that I begged the devs to make a sequel with Kathy and Eileen in my user review. So I'm very grateful towards the devs and Raw Fury that they made this happen. And guess what? Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer far exceeded my expectations! I'm not sure where to begin, because everything in this game is what I expect from a retro-style point & click adventure. The pixel art is wonderful, with a huge amount of detail in the environments and lovely character animations. Kathy and Eileen are some of the best characters I've seen in a video game, and their voice acting is excellent. The story is very well written, with a perfect blend of exploration, suspense, humor and supernatural events. But what an adventure game makes or breaks for me are the puzzles. Luckily, Kathy Rain 2 also delivers for this. The puzzles are clever, make you feel like a real detective, and the difficulty is perfect for me: not too easy, but also not frustrating hard. I enjoyed every minute with this game and no doubt I'll replay it sooner or later. Thank you dear developers for making such a great game. And thank you Raw Fury for supporting this extremely talented studio. <3 P.S. Can I beg for another sequel here as well? :)

I played the first Kathy Rain back in 2017, after getting it for $1 in a Humble Bundle for mobile games, and once again a few weeks ago, so I could prepare for this one. You could say that this sequel is more of the same, there are no gameplay changes and the story elements are very similar to the first game. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, I thought it was some good writing, but kinda hoped it had gone in a different direction. The puzzles were all very easy and mostly didn't take any time to figure out, I also thought the car mini-game/puzzle was extremely unnecessary and cringeworthy, so the puzzles are definitely a low point for me. Overall, I enjoyed it and would recommend the game to point-and-click adventure fans. There isn't really anything new here for most people, but the story kept me enthralled for 6.5 hours (about an hour longer than the first game), so that's good enough for me.

I never lost hope. The pixel art is way better, the music — once again composed by Daniel Kobylarz — is still absolutely wonderful. There’s a ton of reading, a lot of clicking, and a huge cast of characters and locations to explore. It’s a sequel that every fan of the original Kathy Rain should definitely try! I’m having an amazing time so far — Kathy Rain is back, baby!
