July 2025

A wonderful unique game. I wanted to play it for so long. I couldn't get 100% database. I had a lot of fun theory crafting and thinking about what is happening in the game. I highly recommend this game.

I usually don't recommend games, but this one is amazing, it doesn't have a proper ending, as the ending itself is YOUR interpretation of the events. I played with my friend over a weekend and we both had different outcomes, was quite nice to discuss and try to see each other's view and analysis. Also, this actress deserves an award for her act.

Her Story turned out to be an excellent game to play together with someone. Mechanically, the game gives you access to a series of interviews conducted with a suspect in a murder case. The catch is that the interviews are cut into roughly 10-second-long pieces, and you can’t access them directly. Instead, you must use text search to find all the pieces containing a given word or phrase in the subtitles. To add to the challenge, you can only see the first five videos returned, so searching for something like “the” won’t get you very far. You don’t have any specific goal in the game, but naturally, you want to watch all the pieces, reconstruct the interviews, and piece together what happened. We stuck to a simple yet effective flow: watch the found videos, jot down any words that catch our attention, search for those words, and repeat the process. As I said, the game is ideal to play together. For one, the videos are short and easy to digest, and since the game requires little direct interaction, both players get essentially the same experience. Moreover, you can divide the tasks—one person keeps track of the words to search, while the other operates the game. This way, both players stay engaged, making it a true team effort. Plot-wise, you won’t uncover a groundbreaking story, but it has its fair share of twists and turns. That said, the unique approach feels fresh and keeps you hooked until the very end.

This game is like a breath of fresh air in the FMVverse. Unlike many other games in this genre, here you don't choose from any options and decide how the story should progress, instead all you do is type keywords into a video database and watch clips. That's literally it, nothing else to it. Once you discover a certain percentage of the clips, the game ends. It's up to you if you want to find the rest of the clips - you'll be rewarded with an achievement at least. The game doesn't have a whole lot going for it, for less than a euro it's alright tho.

Dec. 2024

Her Story is a king of puzzle game where you have to explore database and visualise hundreds of videos to find who's the real killer. The story and the gameplay is really original and the graphics are cool, like if you're working on an old computer. It worth it and I recommend it. 💗
