Anyone played "Her Story"?

I've heard a lot about this """""game""""" called Her Story. It sounds like a detective type game where you watch videos trying to solve a murder. Has anyone here played it?

Just looked it up, seems intriguing. Reminds me of those old early FMV SegaCD games. Might try to download it today.

Since I posted the topic I downloaded and started playing it. I was on my lunch break so I only had a chance to play about 15 minutes. So far it's pretty cool. I'd call it a game, but it's really a search-type game. You'll hear her mention someone named Eric in the interrogation and you'll search "Eric" to find more videos. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't yield any results. But so far so good.

Nice, I just downloaded it myself, will get in to it in a bit.

Let me know what you think. I want to burn through it but I won't have time until tonight.

Ok about 40 minutes in....does this game have an ending??? Do I do something other than look at these clips??

Oddly enough I typed in Shenmue...nothing

Haha! I think the best way to play the game would be by taking notes. I sorta followed some of the story but by the time things were beginning to be revealed it wasn't a big twist because it was hard to understand the story. It's SO open ended to a fault. If you put in the right word early on you could have major things spoiled. You'll know when it's the end through. There's an event that happens to let you choose yes or no and then I think it gives you the credits.
