Useful Search Terms (No Spoilers)

Her Story is a murder-mystery-detective game I really enjoyed playing!

Before buying this game, I read some reviews and chanced upon guides that portray Her Story as a complex, even confusing game to finish. I've also seen comments from people saying they scribbled pages and pages of "notes" on Hannah Smith's interview, in an attempt to straighten out the non-linear narrative.

This is a guide for anyone who wants a little help in search terms when using the database.

It does not spoil the story -- nor reveal the actual sequence of events.

This guide is recommended for those who have attempted the game, and want more keywords to fine tune their video search. :)

Additional Tips

In the beginning, you can only view up to 5 videos from your search results.

Once you've seen the game's credits, type "admin_unlock" to view up to 15 videos. Here, it helps to re-enter the keywords inorder to assess hidden videos from your initial run.

You can also type "admin_random" to view random videos from the database!

End Note

These aren't ALL the search terms I used when trying to uncover the database, but they definitely stand out because they ran up all the crucial videos I needed, to uncover Hannah's true narrative.

The crucial videos in this game can be found with these keywords.

I hope this guide is useful to your gameplay! :)

To see the game's credits, does that mean you have to finish the game once before being able to see 15 clips at a time?

Had this for a long time but now I have much free time and this got me entertained for two days. Not bad for a steam sale game. Never watch credits so thanks for that tip.

Bought it on sale and still feel like I was ripped off. Game sucks, started out bad, ended bad.. thank god I beat it in 30 min and I was able to get a refund.. I think this was the first and only time I ever asked for a refund on a game.. this don't even qualify as a game, more like a waste of time and money. Im shocked at anyone giving it a positive review and anyone having trouble with beating it

Yorke, thanks! I had already entered 99% of the words in the OP's guide, but some of yours uncovered new videos for me.

it's kinda like PDTA.......also, thanks for the words, i was more than 75% of the database before i saw the tips

Just dropped by to see if i was moving in a right direction. Found out that i had pretty much like half of them written out. So i'll try to move on by myself.

But thanks for the effort, +rep
