Actually, go ahead and do just that, I’ll wait. Now, it would be easy to laugh at the tin foil rage of these posts. Take a look at this post on the game’s Steam forum: I am making a small exception this time because we cannot escape the sociopolitics when we talk about Her Story. My essays on game design on this official studio’s website rarely touch the sociopolitical aspects of gaming. Let’s just address them first, then, clear the air, and open the way for an uninterrupted design analysis – spoiler-free! – of the game. I mostly want to address the first and the last question, but there’s no escaping the middle two: they are, sadly, a part of the online discussion about Her Story. How did a small FMV game become Gamespot’s Game of the Month? Is it a “feminist propaganda”? Is it even a game? And why is it so good when it makes no sense?
