Rain is the game that stars little more than an invisible boy, the invisible girl he's following, and a creepy, seemingly abandoned city. But the PS3 title didn't begin as an adventure game at all, director Yuki Iketa told Famitsu Magazine.
What it feels like to be lost in the dark in the puring rain? Well, PSN exclusive Rain might have an answer for that..
CDW:Occasionally the timing of the puzzles can be frustrating, and waiting for your companion to catch up can be tedious, but overall the gameplay is simple and effective. On occasion it feels as though the gameplay sections are in the way of the rest of the game which is a shame but again it’s not enough to spoil the real enjoyment of Rain. Definitely worth a play for anyone interested in an emotion driven platformer with an atmosphere in keeping with Limbo.
Jarrett from IP writes: "rain succeeds in various ways, but fails in the most important ones. It’s a beautiful narrative, presentation, along with an adoring gloom and darkness, but it’s lazy platforming causes uninspired puzzling, and insipid artificial intelligence. These factors hold rain back from being only slightly better than average."
Stealth trolling from Polygon.
About as close as we'll get to a Team ICO game until The Last Guardian is let out of the basement again.
