Rainy Season

May 18, 2025 - Reading time: ~1 minute - Category: game library project

Rainy Season is a short little game about a Japanese family that has their travel plans ruined because of the weather, forcing them to stay inside all day. You play as a boy, walking around the house and interacting with stuff.

This particular brand of walking simulator isn't usually my thing. I appreciate these games, but often experiences like this feel too personal and I just can't relate to them. I did like this one though. I think Japan has this sort of mystical aura around it that makes it so appealing for kids like me that grew up with games and nerd culture. I know it's not real, and Japan isn't some fairytale land with no problems, but little glimpses into the culture are really appealing to me.

Fun, small experience you can finish in less than an hour.

Verdict: Finished

About

My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, history, and anything else I find interesting. 

My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.

Other content comes mainly in 3 forms:
Reviews, where I post longer-form writeups
Thoughts, short & quick first impressions posts
Guides, detailed how-tos and walkthroughs
