PC people, rejoice! Sick and tired of hearing Playstation owners talk about their "interactive movie" game Heavy Rain? No longer are we left out in the cold -- Heavy Rain is now available to play right on your computer! Well, kind of...
The fine gentlemen over at Rock, Paper, Shotgun have uncovered a text adventure version of the game, Lots O' Rain, that you can download and play right now, for free! While text may lack the emotional punch that bad voice acting brings, I'm confident that Lots O' Rain captures the core gameplay and ideas of the original.
Enjoy!

This is a contender for my GOTY 2010.
Spear has little effect on Whale as it previously used +4 spear resistance spray. Luckily the spear had a chunk of AIDS on the end. You hide behind rock for 15 years. Whale is defeated.
You jump on Dead Whale. It's not very effective. You begin to grow listless with age, forever haunted by the whale you murdered and then tried to ride for three and a half hours. You wife tries to talk you out of your shame, but you smack her across the face in anger.
You lose 3 dexterity.
;_;
Also, Super Drybones stole the show. Hilarious.
I do what I can for those I love.
Eat whale

You find 5 gold in pile of flop sweat.
>Invest 5 gold in Panamanian steel refineries
Sexualchocolate crys a single tear.
"Must try harder"
You've gained 5 gold, and memories that will never wash away.
> Place 4 gold in envelope, send to "Cash for Gold" at 1 gold postage. While away time waiting for evaluation of gold by regaling MAGIC pony with stories about the time I invented butter and the time I did a Dragon Punch so powerful that I flew to the top of the Eiffel Tower.

Your cant be serious! How old are you?
This'll be a day one purchase for me.
