About The 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.

Winner of 3 Bafta Awards, 2 IGF Awards, 3 GDC Awards, Best Narrative & Best Performance at The Game Awards 2015, The Grand Jury Award at IndieCade, Polygon's Game of the Year, SXSW Mobile Game of the Year, Webby Award for Best Mobile Game, 5 IMGA Awards and more!
Her Story is one of the most entrancing experiences you can hope to find on mobile
Pocket Gamer 9/10
It’s a murder case where you’re in the detective’s chair, a mystery where you make the running, and an engrossing experience from start to finish. With this we should consign the term “interactive movie” to history’s dustbin, because movies can’t dream of offering audiences a narrative structure as intimate and involving as this: they’re just moving pictures. Her Story points to the future
The Guardian 5/5
Story
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.
Her Story is a beautiful amalgam of the cinema and video me formats... a remarkable achievement...

Profound, gripping live-action drama… sure to be discussed for years to come.
Digital Spy 5/5
Her Story came about through a combination of my love for police shows and my passion for telling intimate stories through videogames. I wanted players to feel like they were personally exploring this story and also feel some of the excitement that I felt when I wrote it. >
Working with Viva Seifert was a dream and ultimately it's her performance that makes the experience so memorable and moving. Even after playing and testing the game over and over again, there are some scenes which still give me goosebumps!
