Her dead grandfather (and others, I won't spoil it for you) come alive in the form of retrieved tapes, which is a neat way to add otherwise absent characters to the story line. It makes sense too, since Joseph, Kathy's grandfather, was investigating something that presumably led to his death, which Kathy now is retracing. Sort of. The trusty tape recorder also comes in handy when "creating" fake telephone calls---another clever puzzle!

In the end, Kathy Rain is an adventure game dear to adventure lovers' hearts. It does not only deliver on nostalgia levels, but also on story, puzzles, and atmosphere, managing to stand on its own for those who do not wear rose-tinted glasses like I do. Sure, the scarce animations are a bit stiff, the music might not be very memorable compared to the Big Hitters, and the story ending will leave you flabbergasted, even with the "fixed ending" in the Director's Cut (expect to say _huh??_ more than a few times). But I've enjoyed every single minute of this clicking my way through, and I bet so will you.
