So I’m very confused about the ending of these two games, I feel like there’s a deeper meaning to these games that I don’t understand, can somebody please explain it to me.

For Kathy Rain, that can be difficult. The game was inspired by the movie “Twin Peaks” most people are critical of the ending, including me. Here is the best I can do: The sense of otherworldly spirits is present throughout the game. So at the end, We’re treated to a nightmare world where Kathy must come to terms with her own demons regarding her family and her past using these otherworldly spirits and of course destroying the red flowers such that they can no longer do anyone harm again.

Over at steam, there’s a discussion of the ending that will really help:

Kathy Rain was also a Community Playthrough. The developer was also a participant, and offered insight into the game’s idiosyncrasies, as well as what he felt were some of the end game shortcomings. You can read the thread here. Many of the comments at the end of the thread might answer your questions.

Huh? What are you on about?
Twin Peaks is a Tv-series(With a spin off movie)


” most people are critical of the ending,” Huh???
BULLSHIT!
People love the show. And especially the ending.

Rocky_Johan, I think you may have misinterpreted Adv_Lvr’s response which I understand refers to the ending of Kathy Rain & not Twin Peaks. The connection is that it is thought that the game Kathy Rain has a Twin Peaks vibe.

I just finished Kathy Rain for like the 5th time and the ending was much more enjoyable this time around. I was ready for the ending this time and it’s strangeness.
