Hannah Smith (character) | null | Hannah Smith is a fictional character in the independent interactive film video game Her Story (2015). Created by Sam Barlow, she is a young British woman who appears in several police interviews involving the case of Simon, her missing husband who is revealed to have been murdered. The character was conceived following Barlow's departure from Climax Studios, around the same time that he'd begun to write the script for Her Story. She is the only on-screen character of the game, as the others are mentioned only by name, and it is her only appearance.
The character of Smith has earned acclaim from reviewers, who praised the open-interpretation of her biography, her mysterious nature, and the performance of Seifert in the role. The character and Seifert went on to earn several accolades, including winning a Game Award for Best Performance for Seifert and receiving a nomination from the South by Southwest Festival. Polygon included the character on its list of the "70 Best Video Game Characters" of the 2010s. |
