It looks like Kruskal-Wallis is the standard nonparametric test for more than two groups. The problem is that it does not tell which groups are different, except that whether there exists significant difference among the groups.
Is there another nonparametric test for more than two groups? Or better, is there one that would tell you which groups are different?

The generalization of the Kruskal-Wallis test is the proportional odds ordinal logistic model. Such a model can provide the multiple degree of freedom overall test as you get with K-W but also can provide general contrasts (on the log odds ratio scale) including pairwise comparisons.
