Kid reviews for Her Story

It has quite violent and sexual themes, but they are just that, themes. The whole game is just her talking so it's not to bad.

Her Story is a very unique game. As the review states it isn't so much a video game than it is an interactive movie. The story revolves around your character (who is better not being named,as it could spoil the story slightly) searching through a police database for information about the 1994 murder of Simon Smith. This plot element plays out with the player searching keywords in a database, and watching videos of a detective interviewing suspects in the crime. While the review suggest this game is 16+ I would personally say that it could be 14+ depending on the maturity of the player. In the interviews the suspects use profanity, and describe several sexual and violent acts, if a child can handle that, then they shouldn't have a problem with this game. The game itself has a very unique and intriguing story that only ever ends when you believe you know what happened, and even after this you'll be left wondering if you interpreted the story correctly and you may play it several times before you truly feel like you know everything about the story. While the game's story is very good, it can be boring to some people, as the gameplay really only compares to typing something in a search bar and then watching videos. If that isn't your thing, you might think twice about spending $20 on this game. Overall I would rate the game 4/5 for its intriguing story that will leave you wanting more.
