Prices
The United States storefront in every case, so this compares stores and not countries.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.57/day in the week to Aug 10 → 1.71/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Great point-and-click game. I've absolutely rinsed the like of Broken Sword, Monkey Island, and had this recommended alongside Hobs Barrow. Just completed this and now purchased number two.
Kathy Rain ist ein Pixeladventure im klassischen Stil. Man spielt eine junge Journalismusstudentin Kathy, die vom Tod ihres Großvaters erfährt und somit wieder in ihre Heimatstadt zurückkehrt, um an der Beerdigung teilzunehmen. Dabei zeigt sich, dass der Tod vom Großvater alles andere als Gewöhnlich war. Sie findet nach und nach immer mehr heraus, was wirklich passiert ist. Gespielt habe ich den Director´s Cut auf dem Steam Deck und habe ca. 13h dafür benötigt. Probleme hatte ich dabei keine. Das Ursprungsspiel hatte ich damals angespielt, bin dann aber von abgekommen, was aber nicht am Spiel lag. Grafik/Optik Das Spiel hat im Directors Cut eine tolle Pixeloptik die mir sofort gefallen hat. Die Hintergründe sind passend dazu und bieten einem extrem viel zum Angucken und auch Anklicken. Durch den sehr stimmigen Pixellook bekommt man moderne Retrovibs. Bewegung in den Schauplätzen ist vorhanden, wenn auch nicht so viel, wie z.B. im Nachfolger. Alles im allen eine stimmige Sache. Sound/Sprachausgabe Die Soundkullisee zusammen mit der Musik sind immer stimmungsvoll und passen zu den Situationen und Schauplätzen. Sie Sprachausgabe ist wieder auf sehr hohem Level und konnte mich überzeugen. Die deutschen Texte waren verständlich und nach meinem Verständnis steht's passend und sinnvoll übersetzt. Rätsel Die Rätsel sind zu 90% mit logischem Verstand lösbar und nur selten musste ich hier eine Komplettlösung zur Hilfe nehmen. Die Rätsel sind im Vergleich zu der Handlung und den Gesprächen nur ein kleinerer Teil aber konnten mich immer unterhalten. Fazit Die Handlung entwickelt sich stetig weiter, wenn auch nicht mit sehr schnellen Tempo. Kathy als Figur muss man mögen, da sie gerne etwas anstrengend sein kann und hier und da etwas überheblich rüber kommt aber das hat mich weniger gestört. Generell sind die Figuren gerne Mal etwas überzeichnet und leicht klischeehaft. Das muss man mögen aber ich finde das dadurch die realativ ernste und emotionale Handlung etwas aufgelockert wird. Das Spiel versucht gelegentlich etwas tiefgründiger und emotionaler zu werden aber nimmt sich dafür nicht immer genug Zeit. Trotzdem mochte ich das Spiel sehr und wollte wissen, wie die Handlung weiter geht. Zum Ende wird alles etwas übernatürlicher, auch das muss man natürlich mögen. Ich habe im Anschluss gleich mit Teil 2 angefangen, der zu dem Zeitpunkt auch schon veröffenticht war und nochmal ein gutes Stück besser geworden ist, obwohl Teil 1 schon ein sehr gutes Spiel war. Ich kann Teil 1 also jedem Adventures Fan empfehlen.

sometimes i get overwhelmed by how many new pixel art adventure games there are that aren't quite as good as the older titles from the 90s and early 2000s but this is a banger, first one I coulden't stop playing until the end in years, hyped to try the 2nd
It's an ok PnC but I expected way more given the reputation Story and puzzles did not really get me hooked. That said it's not a bad game, just not as engaging as other PnC on Steam, Worth it imo as it usually gets heavily discounted I will give the 2nd entry a go though
I'm not a point-and-click fan, but this game really got me hooked. I was surprised that I finished both parts almost in one sitting(taken from the review of the second part). The plot is really interesting and not annoying, it still a detective genre and "secrets of town" type of plot, but not stereotypical one.In this part, plot is presented in a generally understandable way for those who carefully went through the game, unlike slightly confusing second part. Characters feel more than just cardboard cutouts for the interior, but like real people, even those who only have a couple of lines of text in the plot. Bike customization is a nice bonus to everything that's going on) I recommend checking out this series of games (at least because its so good, that it inspired me to choose the topic of my thesis and put that game into it).
I wish Kathy and Eileen would just kiss already
Ein klassisches Point'n'Click mit erfrischenden Dialogen und einer guten Story. Lohnt sich auf jeden Fall!
This was a great point & click game! Kathy is a fun protagonist- like if Daria rode a motorcycle and smoked cigarettes. I enjoyed the story and the writing. I was never completely stumped on a puzzle, but they weren't a breeze either. I really liked that many of the achievements were playful and not always related to the story. I could see myself replaying in the future for sure!
it's story game and the story was short and not that good
Interactive mystery book. Your problem is to use items in right places and solve puzzles. Most of puzzles are pretty easy and logical - but there are bit harder also in mix. Ending stays bit mysterous ... No bugs - and graphics are "stylish". Voice acting is okais/good. Took me about 10 hours to finnish - I don't see reason repeat game. If you have playd Zak McKracken and other point and click adventure games - you might llike from this.
