Description
"it’s also a story of hope, or the potential of moving on — or at least, for some. I’m really pleased I played this, and I was completely absorbed by the story." - Rock Paper Shotgun

"Rainswept is a masterclass in creating a great murder mystery... It's the best point and click adventure game I've played since Thimbleweed Park." - Defunct Games

"...a heavy yet uplifting tale about all the precious moments in life, and why it’s important to stop and smell the roses." - The AU review


Detective Michael Stone arrives in the small town of Pineview to assist the local police force with a seemingly simple case - A couple is found dead in their kitchen. The locals believe it to be a case of murder-suicide, their speculation fueled by rumors of the turbulent nature of the couple's relationship.

Is it just small-town gossip, or is there some truth to the rumors?

Help Detective Stone, assisted by the driven and empathetic Amy Blunt, discover the truth behind Chris and Diane's story. But be warned: the further he pursues the case, the more his own past shall come back to haunt him. And the closer his sanity will be pushed to the edge.

Rainswept is an adventure game - A murder mystery dealing with themes of love, relationships and unresolved trauma. It's being developed by Frostwood Interactive, a studio found by Armaan Sandhu. The soundtrack is being composed by Micamic, the composer behind Harvester Games' excellent 2012 indie title "The Cat Lady"


  • As Detective Stone, explore the beautiful town of Pineview, talk to the many locals, interview suspects, dig through the victims' pasts and try to piece together the story behind Chris and Diane's brutal deaths.
  • Also play as Chris and experience his story with Diane - joining them in key moments of their lives together as they meet for the first time, get to know each other and fall in love.

Featuring:

  • An emotionally captivating story set in an immersive and atmospheric game world
  • A wide cast of characters with deep histories, meaningful motivations and distinct personalities
  • A moving original soundtrack by Micamic (Downfall, The Cat Lady, Lorelai)
  • Pine trees, coffee and rain. Lots of rain.

A detective story to remeber

Very good story and music makes this noir adventure one to remember. Very good character building and simple but effective graphics (nice ideas and effects!) also contribute. Highly recommended.

Good art and music, bad everything else

The art is nice and minimalistic and the music gives reminds me of Twin Peaks. Just about everything else is mediocre. Many characters are bland and simplisitic. Clear example of aesthetics over story If you're looking for a detective game, look elsewhere. This is simply a point and click where you just happen to play a detective.

Uh ... expletive

This was ... heavy. It's a beautiful, emotional simple story that punches straight into gut. In my imaginary Museum of Games as Art, it would definitively be an exhibit.
