Designed as an 'interactive drama,' Heavy Rain aims to give the player control of the actions, voice and decisions of the protagonists driving the story. It is certainly an ambitious concept. This story draws heavily on cinema; psychological thriller, pulp, noir and mystery, focusing on a father's attempt to save his son from a serial killer. Three other protagonists under the player's control are each investigating this 'Origami Killer' in their own way. These multiple perspectives and the game's slow trickle of plot combine well to grab and hold your attention.
