Half Mermaid
Half Mermaid is a video game production company based in Brooklyn, New York. We were founded in 2017 by four time Bafta winning writer-director Sam Barlow, creator of Her Story. In 2019, our first title, Telling Lies, was published by Annapurna Interactive. This intimate investigative thriller received rave reviews and was heralded for the depth of its story and the performances of its cast. In 2022, we released IMMORTALITY to critical acclaim, including receiving the first perfect 10/10 score in Edge Magazine for an independent game. It tells the story of Marissa Marcel, a vanished actress who starred in three movies that were never released. In 2023, we began production on our most ambitious title to date, Project █████.
