About
Your favorite smart-mouthed, kick-ass detective is back, and she’s in for a wild ride!
When this story begins, things are looking dire for private eye Kathy Rain. It’s the year 1998, and she is utterly broke: The Katmobile is running on fumes, the fridge is nearly empty, and an eviction is looming close.
However, opportunity arrives when a big cash reward is announced for solving the 'Soothsayer' case — a string of serial murders with a death grip on the metropolitan city of Kassidy.
With great reward comes great risk — will this be the case that defines Kathy’s career, or will she become the next victim of the Soothsayer?

Thank you for the travel liquid
I can't decide which one I like more, this or the first game. Either way, they're both REALLY GOOD!
Ich mag die Serie. Rätsel und Pixel-Art haben mich sehr gut unterhalten.
Buena continuación del anterior juego. Muy disfrutable, puzles no muy complejos, el apartado artístico es muy bueno siendo pixelart, y musicalmente está bien. Solo hay dos cosas que no me han entrado, y que quede claro que aún así me ha gustado bastante: 1-Aquí, al contrario del primer Kathy, sí que se cae en el cliché de 'soy una mujer independiente, empoderada y por tanto una borde y trato a la gente mal, y además me pongo hasta arriba de perico y alpiste porque estoy enfadada con el mundo'. Aquí a Kathy se le nota mucho que es, básicamente, una interesada de mierda. 2-SI en el anterior el tema paranormal estaba un poco cogido con pinzas y, al menos yo, no terminé de pillarlo del todo, aquí se da por sentado que sabes de qué va, así que peor. Hay alguna cosilla que no encaja, como el camello que estando en los 90 se viste y habla como si fuese de los 70. Aún así, es una aventura bastante disfrutable y no muy compleja, si no se te atasca ningún puzle en un par de tardes la tienes.
nice mystery game that scratches 90s point and click games summary - you play as kathy rain, an investigator looking into murders of the soothsayer i really enjoyed how this game encourages you to click everything you can think of. and it lets you experiment on combining or interacting with items i also liked how it gives you a recap of the first game at the beginning. it's been a few years since i played the first one, so i don't remember the details. just the gist i wasn't really satisfied with some of the characters or places you go. it felt either like a one time thing that added unnecessary space or they felt unsatisfied. no spoilers, but some characters just...don't exist anymore? what happened to them? it felt like they were just there to advance a moment in the plot and then disregarded at the end. or you go to a place one or two times and then you don't go back. i felt like that could've removed that spot and extended it to other places. it just felt disconnected. i don't remember the original game, but i remember everything connected a lot better and was more cohesive. so i say kathy rain 2 is better gameplay wise, but the story of kathy 1 i enjoyed more additionally, some the puzzles felt a little obtuse. while i really like how some puzzles you had to read in between the lines (like any good investigator would), there were some puzzles that just made me go "what?" and there are a few puzzles where you would only use an item or location one time and be done. it didn't feel like a good use of that puzzle still a really great game. if kathy rain 3 comes out, i'll add it to my wishlist
great game
Entertaining game, some of the puzzles were novel, some were contrived. Overall I'd give it a 6.8/10. I like to feel stuck when playing this sort of game, but It felt more of an interactive novel.
Nice game, i enjoyed it but there was a few hiccups along the way but good over all.
It certainly wasn't better than the first Kathy Rain game, but it was good enough. The storyline itself was interesting enough but it felt like it was lacking in certain areas - characters could have been fleshed out more, there could have been more sequences with the puzzles, and overall, the ending felt...lackluster. But was it still fun? Yes.
Great game, hoping for a third :)
