  • Shall we play a new #game from Sam Her Story Barlow? - 6 December 2017

    I make references to old movies, because I am an old man who only thinks about the past. In this case, the reference is to 80s ‘teen hacker almost accidentally nukes the world’ thriller Wargames. Y’know, the one that no-one remembers anything about other than “shall we play a game?” But don’t we all feel like best friends when we quote it together? We already knew that Sam Barlow, the fella behind FMV detective game Her Story , was working on an interactivery movie sorta thing using the license, but now we get the teaser trailer, and a sense of how cold war nuclear terror has been updated for a new age of electronic disquiet. The fact that this is called #Wargames, rather than simply Wargames, probably provides some clues to this. (more…)

  • Her Story, Read Only Memories & Cibele For $1 In Humble Narrative Bundle - 1 June 2016

    Wowee, isn’t this a nice little surprise to help us shake off the Tuesday Wednesday blues? The latest Humble Bundle – Humble Narrative Bundle – has kicked off and, as always, the first tier is in familiar “pay what you want” format, with Steam keys costing a minimum of $1. Thing is, this particular collection’s premier platform features one-time RPS Game of the Month and FMV Game of 2015 Her Story , cyberpunk retro point-and-clicker Read Only Memories , and Nina Freeman’s lovely semi-autobiographical adventure Cibele . Based on those alone this is probably my favourite bundle yet, but there’s more. …

He teased Her Story 2 in the past, in a wonderfully tantalizing tweet, but he has also decided to join Interlude as Executive Creative Director. If you have never heard of them, that’s alright, most of us hadn’t. To put it simply, Interlude make interactive videos, which at the end of the day are not that different from FMV games. …
