## About Her Story

Her Story is a 2015 detective game developed and published by Sam Barlow. Players explore hundreds of video clips from police interviews by searching a database with keywords, piecing together a woman's story through deduction and discovery. The mechanics include non-linear storytelling, player-driven progression, and video-clipping based exploration. Reviewers highlight the unique detective-style mystery and the addictive loop of unlocking hidden content through searching. Players describe the experience as contemplative, immersive, and mysterious, enjoying the lack of traditional objectives while deducing connections from fragmented clips. Available for $9.99 on Steam, it is playable on Steam Deck and holds an 88% positive rating from over 5000 reviews.
