Caught in the Rain

Can you solve the mystery before it consumes you?

Caught in the Rain is a solo roleplaying game of investigative mystery. Whether you are a child searching for their lost brother, or a detective searching for a ruthless killer, Caught in the Rain solves the challenge of solo mysteries by keeping the truth hidden. This allows players to uncover satisfying, cohesive, and sometimes unexpected revelations as if guided by an unseen hand.
