What if you had the power to change someone’s destiny, just by re-editing the tape of their life?
A new, unique narrative puzzle game that asks you to do just that, Hannah VCR, has launched. This emotionally charged, retro-aesthetic experience from developer and publisher Spaceboy is now available on Xbox Series X|S and PC for £9.99, and comes with full Xbox Play Anywhere support.
Prepare to dive into a world broken by memories, abandonment, and the search for a lost doll, in a thrilling adventure where every choice you make could be the one that saves her.
A World Broken by Memories
In Hannah VCR, you are not in direct control of the protagonist. You are an observer, a guide. The story follows Hannah, a young woman in a world broken by her past. She moves forward alone, and it’s up to you to manipulate the world around her to ensure she survives.
The entire game is presented as a VHS tape, where each coloured square on the tape represents a part of the scene you are about to watch. Your job is to decide the order of those scenes, and then watch as Hannah faces the consequences of your edit.
The Power of the VCR
This is a puzzle game where the puzzle is the narrative itself. You must change the order of the tape to help Hannah navigate a world of haunting memories.
The game is a thrilling experience, filled with mystery, an immersive soundtrack, and an emotionally charged design, all wrapped in a wonderfully nostalgic retro-VHS aesthetic.
What’s more, Hannah VCR is an Xbox Play Anywhere title. This fantastic feature means that your poignant journey to save Hannah can continue, no matter which device you’re on. A single digital purchase on the Xbox Store for £9.99 unlocks the game for you on both your Xbox Series X|S console and your Windows PC. All of your progress and saved tapes are synced via the cloud, so you can seamlessly switch between platforms.
