This once criminal-free town is being haunted by numerous murders of young women. They believe it's the signature work of the infamous Rainman, a brutal slasher killer who mangles and drowns his victims. Take control of our sweet and unsuspicious protagonist, Suzie. A young teenage girl working at the local forest road diner, just outside of Crystalpine Grove. Little does she know, she may be next on the list of victims. Her outcome is in your hands, as there are seven different endings for you to explore. Learn the various suspicious guests at the diner. The Rainman could be anyone... Anyone(Storyline via IGDB)
