Overview
Description

Help Helen escape a burning village and navigate dark, dangerous forests while aiding the people of Amazonia. The journey reveals a larger, sinister force lurking behind the curtain, challenging players to survive the impossible. This indie puzzle‑adventure blends atmospheric storytelling with challenging brain‑teasers, offering a single‑player experience across PC, Mac, and Nintendo Switch. Players must use wit and courage to restore balance in an unexplored realm.

In Rain, a boy pursues a mysterious girl whose silhouette is unseen, only to discover she is hunted by ghostly creatures. He steps into a world where rain becomes both guide and shield, and he too becomes invisible, forcing him to navigate an ethereal landscape. The gameplay blends puzzle solving with atmospheric adventure, using rain patterns to reveal hidden paths and protect the player from spectral foes. As the story unfolds, players uncover the truth behind the rain‑shrouded realm and fight to save the girl before darkness consumes them all.
