Features & Capabilities

Her Story is an award-winning interactive mystery that plays like a real-life crime documentary. Players step into the detective's chair, comb through a police database of live-action video interviews, and piece together what happened. The game has earned numerous honors, including Bafta, IGF, GDC, and The Game Awards 2015 Best Narrative & Best Performance, among others.

How it works: You log into a vintage police computer, search hundreds of video clips from 1994, watch the interviews, and connect clues to uncover the truth. Praised for its intimate, non-linear storytelling, Her Story redefines interactive cinema and stars Viva Seifert.

User Reviews

Her Story offers a novel concept blending a police video archive with keyword-driven exploration, producing an intriguing, non-linear mystery. However, players repeatedly note a lack of closure and limited, often tedious gameplay, with frustrating search mechanics and several technical issues (screen orientation on iPad, sound problems, and lack of updates). The result is a bold idea that feels underdeveloped in practice.
Pros
  • Unique, innovative concept using video clips and keyword search to explore a mystery.
  • Interesting premise and engaging storyline.
  • Non-linear structure invites interpretation and exploration.
  • Search/database mechanic provides a fun hook central to gameplay.
Cons
  • No definitive ending or payoff; the narrative feels unresolved.
  • Limited, not very rewarding gameplay; mostly watching clips.
  • Tedious search mechanic with a five-entry limit and cumbersome typing.
  • Orientation/rotation issues on iPad and long-standing lack of updates.
  • Video sound problems on some devices.

I’ve never felt compelled to write a review for an app - but this one I feel like I need to in order to provide a warning to users… there is no clean ending, answers, etc. That said, within 10 mins I was able to figure out the majority of the storyline. If you’re a big true crime person, this will be a bit predictable for you.

This game no doubt took some time to make and it was a fun concept. However after a while it just got old. You can only see the first five entries of the search term so if you get something with 6 or more then you have to narrow it down. There were a series of questions that were just yes and no answers and that was all that was there and I have no idea how anyone got to watch those. So many of the clips were just pointless clips to watch. There is nothing that says congratulations you solved the case or something somewhat rewarding that says you put her in jail and allows you to state your case against her. Games need some finally and something to let you know you actually solved things right. If there were more putting things together or prompts to type things you solved that would be great. You can put things into a cue and the database was nice to show what videos you haven’t seen. It would have been nice if you could just click on the database once you watched a video and watch things in sequential order instead of finding a website online that helps you with that. Clicking everytime on the keyword search was not pleasant no command+a to type again. Fun concept but needed more. Not very rewarding at all once you spent all that time watching the videos. Basically instead of just watching all the videos in order and figuring things out you have to type a word or phrase and put it together. Cool for about an hour maybe two but after that just repetitive and unpleasant with out makers. There are no clues or anything to help you if you get stuck and can’t find some videos either. It is not like it is practical either that you would have to search like that to watch videos from a database. I would do a game like this again if they gave you rewards, helped you search other things to solve stuff and made it more interactive then just typing words to find videos in a database. Thankfully it wasn’t too expensive but not worth the time and knowing what I know now I wouldn’t have started the game.

Too easy. My third search and it was solved.
