About
Cam conducts his entire life from his electronically automated smart-home. Work, shopping, entertainment and most notably: socialising. Cam interacts with strangers on the platform Hello Stranger: a randomised video chatting application.
Eventually, he encounters a masked stranger with an altered voice. Unnerved, Cam leaves the call only to find the stranger has hacked his smart-home and locked him in. The Stranger tells Cam that he must win three rounds of games or it is ‘game over’. Viewers must make decisions and play the 3 games for Cam to survive but one wrong choice could lead to a grisly end.

I collect fmv games ad I enjoyed this one. I really like the main characters apartment. The set design is cool. You can unlock multiple endings so I'll play this again later and make different choices.
The game won't start after the loading screen, you choose new game and screen goes black. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no luck, after verifying files too. First time this happens to me
I played this game two seperate times for different endings and enjoyed it each time! Hilarious FMV that had a bunch of replay ability. I hope for more playthroughs from the devs! here are my two playthroughs! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QafyKafsaXQ&t=2s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LevohBT0q2M&t=5s
BUT WHY WHY?!!!! This game was made in 2025 and yet, we GET ONE audio slider that controls ALL audio. This is such a flaw in today's games. As a lot of developers havent learned about audio-leveling. Or at least make seperate sliders for Music, Voice, Sound FX etc. SIGH SIGH. This game as many others lack above, so the Voice-actors were so low, but the MUSIC was louder whiich makes it impossible to enjoy.. :( Other than that a wicked small fun FMV game. Crazy story, a wide set of characters and great endings. It's worth several playthroughs. Just don't got for one.
I didn't think the story was particularly strong. It's a small variation on something I - and probably most people - have seen numerous times. It is however always a huge plus when a game doesn't overstay it's welcome and at about 40 minutes for one playthrough it's very brief. What Hello Stranger did do well is, well kinda everything else. I was impressed by the production values. It looks very good, some good acting from the few involved and the script was decent. I was entertained for the duration.
Absolutely great game, recently I have gotten really into these FMV style games, and this one was exceptionally made. I've only played through it once, and unfortunately got a copyright claim for a segment in the game as it appears to be using footage from a movie called, White Room. So now I'm kinda worried about recording more game play of the game in case there are more little hidden copyright claims waiting around the corner. But I have really enjoyed my one play through so far.
All I can say is... wow! Many unexpected twists and turns. Cinematography you'd want to frame on the wall. Superb acting. I wish Orson Welles were alive to see this. I'm glad I took the time to explore the many different endings, because they're really cool.
A very intriguing story that gets deeper the more you play. After experiencing a few endings, the story of Cam is becomes more and more complex - definitely recommend trying each ending to get the full experience! Love the arcade games you can play too!!
6分,故事剧情还挺不错的。
Всем фанатам жанра - обязательно к покупке. И потому что игра ОЧЕНЬ хорошая, и потому что Пол Рашид в целом делает лучшее инди-кино, при этом его почти никто не знает. Хотя у него и истории всегда неплохие, и геймплей классный, и актеры отличные, и атмосфера на высоте. Если вы любите интерактивное кино, смело берите даже за фулл прайс. Игра отбивает $6.5 с запасом. И возьмите еще The Gallery с The Run, это тоже достойные игры, минимум на 8/10.
