Her Story

Sam Barlow

About this game

Her Story is the critically acclaimed mystery game from Sam Barlow. Playing like an interactive true crime documentary, the game lets you go hands on with a police database full of live action video footage. It stars Viva Seifert, actress and one half of the band Joe Gideon and the Shark.

How does it work?

Her Story sits you in front of a mothballed desktop computer and logs you into a police database. Search through hundreds of video clips that cover seven interviews from 1994 in which a British woman is interviewed about her missing husband. Explore the database by typing search terms, watch the clips where she speaks those words and piece together her story.

Unlike anything you've played before, Her Story is an involving and moving experience. One that asks you to listen.

Ratings and reviews

Loved Sam and team's newer games Telling Lies and Immortality, was happy to find this on Android (don't think I could a couple years ago for whatever reason - might have been my fault). Glad I got another dose of this type game. Will be there day 1 for any other games like this. Big plus being able to play on my phone.

I was all set to rail this game I mean having to search specific text and watch the videos out of order... It wasn't looking good but after giving it a chance I found the story really captures you, you have to focus to get all the details and let's not forget the acting is brilliant I do wish there was some way to track completion but it was a fun ride

when you can play it, it's an awesome game (I actually bought it twice). sadly the 2nd time was wasted as it doesn't run on latest Android versions (see other reviews). it's a shame. will make me think twice about buying other games from the same developers as I guess they are small, so once they move on to a new project it essentially becomes abandonware *edit* thanks, have reinstalled! As I said before, when it works it's brilliant.
